Send Notification to Multiple Roles

Hello,

1=> How to send notification to multiple roles when new Post created ? I put role name inside array but it doesn't send out to multiple roles , only send to one role that the first one of array

2=> According to docs, there is two ways to send notification via Trait and via Facade

May i know which one is better to send notification

Thanks all


public function created(Post $post)
    {
        $admin = User::whereHas('roles', function ($q) {
            return $q->whereName(['admin', 'author']);
        })->get();

        /** Using The Notifiable Trait */
        $admin->each(function ($admin) use ($post) {
            $admin->notify(new NewPostSubmitted($post));
        });

        /** Using The Notification Facade */
        Notification::send($admin, new NewPostSubmitted($post));
    }

Both work fine and should work in your case. The problem here is that you only select person that have both roles named admin and author. Try this query instead

$admins = User::whereHas('roles', function ($q) {
    return $q->whereIn('name', ['admin', 'author']); // If the user has one of the roles
})->get();
