      You are viewing the documentation for **an older version** of this package. You can check the version you are using with the following command:

 `                                    composer show spatie/laravel-backup-server                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    `

Customizing the notifiable
==========================

Laravel's notifications are sent to a notifiable. A notifiable provides configuration values that determine how notifications will be sent.

By default, the package uses this notifiable class: `\Spatie\BackupServer\Notifications\Notifiable::class`. This class will read out the config file. All mail notifications will be sent to the mail address specified in the `notifications.mail.to` key of the config file.

If you use a channel that needs some get some extra information out of the notifiable you can easily extend the default notifiable.

Here's how that might look like:

```
namespace App\Notifications;

use Spatie\BackupServer\Notifications\Notifiable;

class BackupNotifiable extends Notifiable
{
    public function routeNotificationForAnotherNotificationChannel()
    {
        return config('backup.notifications.another_notification_channel.property');
    }
}

```

Don't forget to register the notifiable in the config file:

```
// config/backup.php
    'notifications' => [
    ...

    'notifiable' => App\Notifications\BackupNotifiable::class,
```
