Usage

Send Message

    Notice::PostOffice()
        ->type(Notice::Consts()->typeMessage())
        ->sender(1) // Sender ID
        ->title('test message')
        ->message('message contents. this is a test message!')
        ->addReceiver(2) // Receiver ID
        ->addReceivers([3, 4, 5, 6, 7]) // Receivers
        ->send();

In this code, title() and message() are not necessary.

Notice::Consts()->typeMessage() // message, someone send message to someone else.
Notice::Consts()->typeNotice() // notice, announcement by someone.
Notice::Consts()->typeSystem() // system, messages sent by the system.

type() can receive 'message', 'notice' and 'system', default type is 'message'.

MailBox

Receive Message

$Messages = Notice::MailBox()
    ->receiver(4) // Receiver ID
    ->getPagedMessages(1, 10); // Page, Limited, Type = null

$Totals = Notice::MailBox()
    ->totalMessages(); // Type = null

return [
    'messages' => $Messages, // Paged messages
    'totals'   => $Totals, // Total count of messages
];

or like this

Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4) // Receiver ID
$Messages = Notice::MailBox()->getPagedMessages(1, 10, Notice::Consts()->typeMessage());
$Totals   = Notice::MailBox()->totalMessages(Notice::Consts()->typeMessage());

return [
    'messages' => $Messages, // Paged messages
    'totals'   => $Totals, // Total count of messages
];

If you set the value of $Type, then this method will return the result of the corresponding type.

Count Messages

Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4);

Notice::MailBox()->hasUnread(); // Type = null, return bool
Notice::MailBox()->hasUnread(Notice::Consts()->typeMessage());

Notice::MailBox()->totalUnread(); // Type = null, return unread count num
Notice::MailBox()->totalUnread(Notice::Consts()->typeMessage());

Notice::MailBox()->totalMessages(); // Type = null, return count num
Notice::MailBox()->totalMessages(Notice::Consts()->typeMessage());

Notice::MailBox()->countUnread(); // Type = null
// return array like this ['message' => 5, 'notice' => 2, 'system' => 3]

Notice::MailBox()->countUnread(Notice::Consts()->typeMessage());
// return array like this ['message' => 5]

Get Specified Message

$Message = Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->getTransfer(1) // Transfer ID

return [
    'message' => $Message, // Message
];

Note: Only message for this receiver can be obtained.

Read / Unread

Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->read(1) // Transfer ID
Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->read([1,2,3,4]) // Transfer IDs

Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->readAll();
Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->readAll(Notice::Consts()->typeMessage()); // Type

Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->unread(1) // Transfer ID
Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->unread([1,2,3,4]) // Transfer IDs

Note: Only the corresponding receiver can modify message status.

Remove Message

Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->remove(1) // Transfer ID
Notice::MailBox()->receiver(4)->remove([1,2,3,4]) // Transfer IDs

View Remove Message

Notice::MailBox()->mode(Notice::Consts()->modeRecycled());

$Messages = Notice::MailBox()
    ->receiver(4)
    ->getPagedMessages(1, 10);

$Totals = Notice::MailBox()->totalMessages();

return [
    'messages' => $Messages, // Paged messages
    'totals'   => $Totals, // Total count of messages
];

you can use those values:

Notice::Consts()->modeAll() // return null, all messages
Notice::Consts()->modeWithoutRecycled() // return true, default, only not recycled
Notice::Consts()->modeRecycled() // return false, only recycled
