Easy way to add a new driver, without modification of DriverManager

As a description, I will cite the docs:

Creating Custom Driver

Create your custom driver class in place, where Composer can autoload it. You can use following template to start with:

  namespace App\SMS\Drivers;

  use SimpleSoftwareIO\SMS\DoesNotReceive;
  use SimpleSoftwareIO\SMS\Drivers\DriverInterface;
  use SimpleSoftwareIO\SMS\OutgoingMessage;

  class DemoDriver implements DriverInterface
  {
      use DoesNotReceive;

      private $api_key;

      function __construct($api_key)
      {
          $this->api_key = $api_key;
      }

      public function send(OutgoingMessage $message)
      {
          dd(
              $this->api_key,
              $message->getFrom(),
              $message->getTo(),
              $message->composeMessage()
          );
      }
  }

To use this custom driver set SMS_DRIVER enviroment varible (.env) to fully qualified class name, for example:

  SMS_DRIVER=App\SMS\Drivers\DemoDriver

Alternatively you can change driver key in your sms.php config file, for example:

      'driver' => App\SMS\Drivers\DemoDriver::class,

Injecting custom attributes to driver

If you need to pass custom attributes to your driver like api key or HTTP client, you can use Laravel Dependency Injection. For example, in register method of your service provider, you can bind your custom parameters:

      public function register()
      {
          $this->app->bind(\App\SMS\Drivers\DemoDriver::class, function ($app) {
              return new \App\SMS\Drivers\DemoDriver(
                  $app['config']->get('sms.demodriver.api_key', null)
              );
          });
      }
