Guest contacts
Guest bookings often have no user account behind them. Store the booking’s email and phone directly on the appointment — contacts-for-laravel is wired into the bundled model:
use RoundlyConsulting\Appointments\Facades\Appointments;
$appointment = Appointments::schedule('Guest booking')
->startingAt('2026-07-01 09:00')
->withContactEmail('[email protected]')
->withContactPhone('+441234567890')
->create();
$appointment->primaryEmail()?->value; // "[email protected]"
$appointment->primaryPhone()?->value; // "+441234567890"withContactEmail() and withContactPhone() take the value, an optional label and a primary flag that defaults to true.
Contacts on an existing appointment
use RoundlyConsulting\Contacts\Enums\ContactType;
$appointment->addEmail('[email protected]'); // not primary by default
$appointment->addPhone('+441234567891', 'Reception', primary: true);
$appointment->contactsOfType(ContactType::Email); // every email contact
$appointment->contacts; // all contacts (MorphMany)Calendar addresses
The appointment’s primary email becomes the calendar ORGANIZER, named after the contact’s name or, failing that, its label:
Appointments::schedule('Clinic visit')
->startingAt('2026-07-01 09:00')
->withContactEmail('[email protected]', 'Front desk') // ORGANIZER;CN=Front desk:mailto:[email protected]
->withParticipant($patient)
->create();Participants are exported as ATTENDEE lines when their own model has a primary email — add HasContacts to your participant models:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use RoundlyConsulting\Appointments\Concerns\HasAppointments;
use RoundlyConsulting\Contacts\Concerns\HasContacts;
class Patient extends Model
{
use HasAppointments;
use HasContacts;
}
$patient->addEmail('[email protected]', primary: true);
// exported as ATTENDEE;CN=<the patient's name attribute>:mailto:[email protected]Show your open-source love
