FEAST Pusher Plugin

This package is a plug to work with Pusher for FEAST Framework

Installation

Usage

Installation

Recommended installation uses composer. This allows for quick setup.

Installing with Composer

Run composer install feast/pusher.

In container.php, add the following at the bottom of the file.

$container->add(\FeastFramework\Pusher\Pusher::class,new \FeastFramework\Pusher\Pusher());

Manual installation

Alternatively, if you do not wish to use composer, this plugin can be manually installed by downloading and placed in a folder of your choosing if you do not wish to use composer. You will need to add a path mapping in container.php before adding Pusher to the container. Replace src in the block below with the path to your installation of the Pusher plugin.

/** @var \Feast\Autoloader $autoLoader */
$autoLoader->addPathMapping('FeastFramework\\Pusher', ['src']);
$container->add(\FeastFramework\Pusher\Pusher::class,new \FeastFramework\Pusher\Pusher());

Configuration and Usage

Configuration

The Pusher plugin is configured by adding an array into your configs/config.php that contains the necessary keys. See sample below. Note that if you name your configuration namespace pusher, then you do not need to pass it in to the various methods.

$environment['production'] = ['
    pusher' => [
        'cluster' => 'us2',
        'key' => 'Your-App-Key',
        'secret' => 'Your-Secret-Key',
        'appid' => 'App-ID'
    ]
];

Injection and Instantiation

The Pusher plugin can be automatically injected into both controllers and plugin classes by type-hinting the argument \FeastFramework\Pusher\Pusher. To learn more about Dependency injection in FEAST, see the docs, here

Alternatively, you may directly instantiate by calling new Pusher();
