Laravel Push Notification and Messaging

Question

I'm trying to write front-end with the back-end ionic with laravel. What I want to do is that when the user orders the application, I want to send notifications to the application and messaging with the user from the application.

For this, I have reviewed the / laravel-push-notification package;

However, it did not work for me because I needed a dynamic messaging. Can you help with this? I do not want to use https://pusher.com

I have also integrated push notification in laravel using below code, hope it helps you :

function sendPushNotification($fcm_token, $title, $message, $id="") {  
        $push_notification_key = Config::get('settings.PUSH_NOTIFICATION_KEY');    
        $url = "https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send";            
        $header = array("authorization: key=" . $push_notification_key . "",
            "content-type: application/json"
        );    

        $postdata = '{
            "to" : "' . $fcm_token . '",
                "notification" : {
                    "title":"' . $title . '",
                    "text" : "' . $message . '"
                },
            "data" : {
                "id" : "'.$id.'",
                "title":"' . $title . '",
                "description" : "' . $message . '",
                "text" : "' . $message . '",
                "is_read": 0
              }
        }';

        $ch = curl_init();
        $timeout = 120;
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postdata);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $header);

        // Get URL content
        $result = curl_exec($ch);    
        // close handle to release resources
        curl_close($ch);

        return $result;
    }
