SmsBridge: Unified Bangladeshi SMS Gateway for Laravel 🇧🇩

A simple, unified Laravel SMS package to seamlessly connect with multiple Bangladeshi SMS Gateways (like AdnSms, ElitBuzz, AlphaSms) using a single .env configuration structure. No more confusing or duplicated environment variables when you need to switch SMS providers!

🔥 The Ultimate Smart Auto-Failover System

Never lose a critical SMS (OTP, Alerts) again! If you add multiple gateways to your system (e.g., AdnSms, Infobip, SSL Wireless), SmsBridge will automatically try them one by one based on your set priorities. If your primary gateway API is down, out of balance, or times out, the system will instantly reroute and send the SMS automatically through the next active gateway behind the scenes! No complicated try-catch loops required.

Key Features

• Smart Auto-Failover — Automatically switch to the next gateway if the primary one fails.
• Multiple Gateways — Seamlessly connect to 12+ SMS providers simultaneously.
• Bulk SMS — Send to multiple recipients in a single call.
• Queue Support — Dispatch SMS to background jobs for high performance.
• Laravel Notifications — Native integration with Laravel's notification system.
• BD Phone Formatting — Automatic phone number normalization to 8801XXXXXXXXX format.
• Extensible — Create custom drivers for any SMS gateway.

Installation

1. Add the package to your composer.json (if testing locally without Packagist yet):

2. Require the package via Composer:

3. Publish the configuration file:

Configuration (Database & UI Based - No .env required for credentials)

We've removed the necessity to use .env files for adding credentials! The package now features a fully-fledged Admin Panel that stores gateway information securely inside your Database.

1. Publish the views, database migrations, and configuration to your project:

   (Or run them individually via --tag="sms-bridge-config" and --tag="sms-bridge-views")

2. Crucial: Run the database migrations to create the sms_gateways table:

3. Log into your main Laravel application.
4. Visit the secured gateway UI at: your-app.test/sms-bridge
5. Add your gateways (Infobip, AlphaSms, Elitbuzz etc) via the graphic interface. You can set the priority for fallback!

Multi-Gateway Activation & Failover Logic

The true power of SmsBridge lies in its native Smart Failover System. You do not have to rely on a single SMS provider!

1. Enable Multiple Gateways (The Checkbox System): In the Admin UI, you will see an Active checkbox switch for each gateway. You can enable as many gateways as you want simultaneously. Only gateways that are checked as Active will participate in the SMS sending process.

2. Priority Ordering: When adding or editing a gateway, you can set a Priority number (e.g., 1, 2, 3) and mark one as Default.

   • The Default gateway is always prioritized first.
   • The rest of the Active gateways are sorted by their priority numbers.
3. How the Failover Works: When you send an SMS using Codepagol\SmsBridge\Services\SmsBridgeService::sendSms(), the system does the following:
   • It attempts to send the SMS using the first active gateway (the Default or highest priority one).
   • If that gateway fails (e.g., due to an invalid API key, insufficient balance, API downtime, or timeout), the system automatically catches the error.
   • It immediately falls back and tries to send the SMS using the next active gateway in your priority list.
   • This process continues until the SMS is successfully delivered or all active gateways have failed.

This guarantees maximum delivery rates for your OTPs and critical messages without writing complicated try-catch loops yourself!

Usage

Using the Facade (Recommended)

You can send SMS from any Controller, Job, or Service by importing the SmsBridge facade:

Background Queue Support

If you want to dispatch SMS via Laravel's Queue system to keep your application fast, use the queue() method instead of send():

Note: Make sure your QUEUE_CONNECTION in .env is configured properly (e.g., database, redis) and you are running php artisan queue:work.

Advanced API Endpoints

You can fetch Account Balance and Profile details from supported Gateways natively:

In the Admin UI, you can specify modular endpoints for these requests:

• Base API URL: e.g. https://api.example-gateway.com/v3
• Send SMS Ext: e.g. sms/send
• Balance Ext: e.g. balance
• Profile Ext: e.g. me

Dependency Injection

Or, inject the underlying manager dynamically:

Supported Gateways

Currently supported SMS_BRIDGE_GATEWAY strings:

• adnsms (AdnSms)
• elitbuzz (ElitBuzz)
• alphasms (AlphaSms)
• banglalink (Banglalink)
• bulksms (BulkSMSBD)
• esms (eSMS)
• grameenphone (Grameenphone)
• greenweb (GreenWeb BD)
• infobip (Infobip)
• mimsms (MimSMS)
• robi (Robi)
• smsnoc (SMSNOC)
• ssl (SSL Wireless)

Auto-Log & Testing Integration

SmsBridge includes a built-in log gateway designed specifically for local testing to stop you from wasting real SMS credits. It comes with some incredibly smart defaults:

1. Implicit Fallback (Zero Config): If you install the package and do not configure any active gateways in the admin panel, SmsBridge will automatically fall back to the log gateway. All your dispatched SMS messages will safely write to storage/logs/laravel.log without crashing!
2. Mutual Exclusivity: If you explicitly enable the log gateway from the admin UI, the system will automatically disable all your other real gateways. Conversely, if you enable a real gateway (e.g., Banglalink, SSL Wireless, etc.), the system automatically disables the log gateway.

This ensures you never accidentally send real SMS while debugging, or vice versa!
