It is recommended to set up a queue worker to precess the incoming webhooks.

Prepare your AWS console for SES webhooks

• Assuming that you have SES service up and running in your app already
• Create a configuration set
• Choose SNS as event destination
• Choose HTTP as delivery method for that newly created SNS topic
• Specify the webhook URL as ${APP_URL}/webhooks/ses
• This package should auto confirm the subscription
• You need to specify the configuration set name in your config/services.php

Usage

There are 2 ways to handle incoming webhooks via this package.

1 - Handling webhook requests using jobs

If you want to do something when a specific event type comes in; you can define a job for that event. Here's an example of such job:

After having created your job you must register it at the jobs array in the config/ses-webhooks.php config file. The key should be lowercase and spaces should be replaced by _. The value should be a fully qualified classname.

2 - Handling webhook requests using events and listeners

Instead of queueing jobs to perform some work when a webhook request comes in, you can opt to listen to the events this package will fire. Whenever a valid request hits your app, the package will fire a ses-webhooks::<name-of-the-event> event.

The payload of the events will be the instance of WebhookCall that was created for the incoming request.

You can listen for such event by registering the listener in your EventServiceProvider class.

Here's an example of such listener class:

Pruning old webhooks (opt-in but recommended)

Update your app/Console/Kernel.php file like:

This will delete records older than 30 days, you can modify this duration by publishing this config file.
