How can I override the Laravel Facade methods?

Question

I want to override the Laravels' Mail send class facade method (just intercept it by force checking some checks, and then if it passes with parent :: send () running)

What is the best way to do this?

Answer 1

The facade does not work like that. This is essentially a kind of wrapper class that calls the base class that it represents.

The facade has Mailvirtually no method send. When you do Mail::send(), under the hood, the “facade accessory” is used to refer to an instance of the class Illuminate\Mail\Mailerbound in the IoC container. A method is called on this object send.
