Text of the message

The BulkGate\Sms\Message\Text class represents the object of the message text.

use BulkGate\Sms\Message\Text;

The constructor accepts two optional parameters. The first is the $text message template itself. The second is the field $variables that passes variables for the message template.

$text = 'Hi <name>, we wish you all the best to your <age> birthday!';

$variables = [
    'name' => 'John',
    'age' => '29'
];

$message_text = new Text($text, $variables);

The text class supports adding of variables to the text, as seen in the previous example. The symbols <name> and <age> are replaced by appropriate values (<name> by John and <age> by 29) from the $variables field.

You can also set up the text using the text($text, array $variables) method, which accepts the same parameters as constructor.

$message_text->text($text, $variables);
