<p><strong>Limitless Communication:</strong> All-in-one, super scalable, messaging Solution for WordPress.</p>
<p>Ok hold on! ✋. So, many words in one line.<br />
Let’s understand each one-by-one.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>All-in-one:</strong> What do you want? – Email, SMS, push-notification? Get all-in-one.
<ul>
<li>But I don’t want to use <code>xyz</code> provider for SMS, I want to use <code>pqr</code>, can I have that? Yes it provides you with lot of pre implemented providers for all email, sms and push-notification.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Super Scalable:</strong> But I want to use an email provider named <code>yxr</code> you haven’t heard the name of. Now what? 🧐
<ul>
<li>No worries! Are you a developer? If yes, just write your own plugin and implement your own adapter and see it nicely hooked-up with “WordPress messaging”. Please refer to <a href="https://github.com/Souptik2001/wp-messaging/wiki/Create-your-own-Adapter-%F0%9F%9B%A0%EF%B8%8F" rel="nofollow ugc">this</a> section for implementing adapters.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>And that’s how it provides <strong>Limitless communication</strong>! 🚀</p>

<h3>Examples</h3>
<h4>Email 📧📨</h4>
<p>Send an email through a particular adapter (with headers 😉) –</p>
<pre><code>\Souptik\AllPathMessaging\Email\send(
  [ 'dev2@souptik.dev' ],
  'Yay its working!',
  'This is some long mail body.',
  'Souptik',
  'dev1@souptik.dev',
  [
   'cc' => [
    [
     'name'  => 'CC Test',
     'email' => 'cc@souptik.dev',
    ],
   ],
   'attachments' => [
    trailingslashit( WP_CONTENT_DIR ) . '/mu-plugins/test-all-path-messaging.php',
     'SameFileDifferentName.php' => trailingslashit( WP_CONTENT_DIR ) . '/mu-plugins/test-all-path-messaging.php',
   ],
  ],
  'mailgun'
 );
</code></pre>
<p>Just remove the last parameter! And now it uses the default selected adapter –</p>
<pre><code>\Souptik\AllPathMessaging\Email\send(
  [ 'dev2@souptik.dev' ],
  'Yay its working!',
  'This is some long mail body.',
  'Souptik',
  'dev1@souptik.dev',
  [
   'cc' => [
    [
     'name'  => 'CC Test',
     'email' => 'cc@souptik.dev',
    ],
   ],
   'attachments' => [
    trailingslashit( WP_CONTENT_DIR ) . '/mu-plugins/test-all-path-messaging.php',
     'SameFileDifferentName.php' => trailingslashit( WP_CONTENT_DIR ) . '/mu-plugins/test-all-path-messaging.php',
   ],
  ],
 );
</code></pre>
<p>Checked the override <code>wp_mail</code> checkbox? Try a simple <code>wp_mail</code>! –</p>
<pre><code>wp_mail(
  [ 'dev2@souptik.dev' ],
  'Yay its working!',
  'This is some long mail body - from <strong>wp_mail</strong>.',
  [],
  []
 );
</code></pre>
<h4>SMS 📲</h4>
<p>Send a SMS through a particular adapter –</p>
<pre><code>\Souptik\AllPathMessaging\SMS\send( [ '+xxxxxxxxxxxx' ], 'Yay its working!', 'twilio' );
</code></pre>
<p>Just remove the last parameter! And now it uses the default selected adapter –</p>
<pre><code>\Souptik\AllPathMessaging\SMS\send( [ '+xxxxxxxxxxxx' ], 'Yay its working!' );
</code></pre>
<h3>Creating your own adapter 🛠️</h3>
<p>Here comes the cool part fellow developers! 💻</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> I have provided a dummy adapter for each service at <code>inc/<service>/adapters/dummy/</code>.</p>
<p>Consider that as the starting point and let’s understand what each file does.</p>
<ul>
<li>Let’s start with <code>namespace.php</code>. It is the entry point of your adapter.
<ul>
<li>In that you will see a simple <code>bootstrap</code> function.</li>
<li>In that function we are hooking into <code>EMAIL_SLUG . '_adapters'</code> and registering our adapter.</li>
<li>We pass the following data –</li>
<li><code>slug</code></li>
<li><code>name</code></li>
<li><code>adapter</code> class object.</li>
<li><code>options</code> – An array defining the settings required for this adapter, which will be used to automatically display the options on the settings page.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Next is <code>class-adapter.php</code>, which is the Adapter class, which we initialized in the above file and passed it to <code>adapter</code>. It contains three simple functions –
<ul>
<li><code>get_settings_fields</code> – This is the function which returns the array of options, which we used in the above file for <code>options</code>. Each option, will have –</li>
<li>The key as the name of the option.</li>
<li>And three values –
<ul>
<li><code>label</code> – Label to display in the settings page beside the input.</li>
<li><code>type</code> – Type of the field.</li>
<li><code>sanitize_callback</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>get_settings</code> – This function returns an associative array, whose keys are the name of the options and the value as the value of the options.</li>
<li><code>get_adapter</code> – This function will just return the core provider class, which is responsible for processing the message.</li>
<li>First check if <code>Utopia Messaging</code> already provides the provider or not <a href="https://github.com/utopia-php/messaging?tab=readme-ov-file#adapters" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a>, for example <code>Utopia\Messaging\Adapter\Email\Mailgun</code>.</li>
<li>If it is present just use it. Easy peasy! ✨</li>
<li>But if not, let’s code it ourself, because <code>Utopia Messaging</code> makes it so easy to create a new adapter!</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>class-dummy.php</code> is for that purpose, assuming you don’t get a provider already present in <code>Utopia Messaging</code>.
<ul>
<li>It’s basically a child class of <code>EmailAdapter</code> or <code>SMSAdapter</code>, which abstract a lot of stuff for us!</li>
<li>Let me explain two main functions, <code>_construct</code> and <code>process</code>. <em>Rest of the functions and properties are self-explanatory!</em> 😉</li>
<li>In the <code>_construct</code> function just put the arguments which you want to accept. That’s it! And now they will be available everywhere else as <code>$this->param_name</code>!</li>
<li>The <code>process</code> function is the place where you have to write the main logic of calling your providers API to send the message.
<ul>
<li>As said above all the credentials/data you accepted through constructor are available as <code>$this->param_name</code>.</li>
<li>Build the <code>body</code> and the <code>headers</code>.</li>
<li>And then you can use the <code>$this->request</code> function as demonstrated in the dummy!</li>
<li>Create a response using Utopia’s <code>Response</code> class.</li>
<li>Handle the errors, populate the response, return! Done! 🚀</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
