Email sending and queueing for Charcoal


README

The Email package provides an integration with PHPMailer for sending emails.

Installation

composer require charcoal/email

For Charcoal projects, the service provider can be registered from your configuration file:

{
    "service_providers": {
        "charcoal/email/service-provider/email": {}
    }
}

Usage

use Charcoal\Email\ServiceProvider\EmailServiceProvider;
use Pimple\Container;

$container = new Container();
$container->register(new EmailServiceProvider());

$email = $container['email'];
$email->setData([
    'from' => '"Company inc." <company.inc@example.com>',
    'bcc'  => 'shadow@example.com',
    'to'   => [
        'recipient@example.com',
        '"Some guy" <someguy@example.com>',
        [
            'name'  => 'Other guy',
            'email' => 'otherguy@example.com',
        ],
    ],
    'reply_to' => [
        'name'  => 'Jack CEO',
        'email' => 'jack@example.com'
    ],
    'subject'        => $this->translator->trans('Email subject'),
    'campaign'       => 'Campaign identifier',
    'template_ident' => 'foo/email/default-email'
    'attachments'    => [
        'foo/bar.pdf',
        'foo/baz.pdf',
    ],
]);

// Dispatch immediately:
$email->send();

// Alternately, dispatch at a later date using the queue system:
$email->queue('in 5 minutes');
