Usage
The following sections demonstrates two ways to use Ably in Laravel: via a dependency injection.
Facade
Use the Laravel facade to access the Ably client.
Facade usage details.
The facade always returns a singleton instance created with options defined in the config file. Any methods available on an AblyRest class are available through the facade. Due to PHP limitations, properties must be accessed as methods, for example `Ably::auth()`):Dependency injection
Use the dependency injection to access the Ably client.
Dependency injection usage details.
You can use `Ably\Laravel\AblyService` instead of the facade, which acts as a 1:1 wrapper for an AblyRest singleton instance created with default options. `Ably\Laravel\AblyFactory` lets you instantiate new AblyRest instances with (optional) custom options.Releases
