Laravel 5.3 Notifications Seeder

Question

What I am trying to acheive - is create a database seeder for Laravel Notifications. As far as i am using database to store my notifications, there should be a way to achieve it. I am creating Factory model :

$user->notify(new NotificationEvent($event));

In fact it creates a notification in database, but artisan returns with error

  [Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalThrowableError]                   
  Call to undefined method Illuminate\Support\Facades\Notification::save()

Anybody knows what to do?

Answer 1

This seems to be a namespace issue, please try the following, place the class reference on top of your seed class:

use Notification;
