README

MailChimp API v2.0 Laravel PHP Example

Installation

• Step1: Add this to your root composer.json

	"require": {
	    "jsdecena/mailchimp": "^7.0"
	}

Or issue this command:

composer require jsdecena/mailchimp

• Step2: Add this to your config/app.php in providers array

	'providers' => [
	    Jsdecena\MailChimp\MailChimpServiceProvider::class,
	]

• Step3: Run this in your terminal

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Jsdecena\MailChimp\MailChimpServiceProvider"

• Step4: Include the template anywhere in your template @include('mailchimp::mailchimp')

• Step5: Set the variable in your .env file

MAILCHIMP_API_KEY=YourMailChimpAPIKey

MAILCHIMP_LIST_ID=YourMailChimpListId

• Step6: Enjoy!

Overriding the template file?

• Yes you can. Override the file in /resources/views/vendor/mailchimp/mailchimp.blade.php

What is new with 1.6?

• Recently, I learned the power of doing TDD (test driven development) on applications using PHPUnit. So now, I am already throwing exception messages whenever there is an issue on the request!

What are the exception messages we are returning?

• Email that MailChimp does not allow

  {
    "error": "List_RoleEmailMember: [e-mail] is an invalid email address and cannot be imported."
  }

• Wrong API key provided

  {
    "error":"Invalid MailChimp API key: 1112e36f7f44ef4cc3c5a584747abb05be"
  }

• Wrong List ID provided

  {
    "error":"Invalid MailChimp List ID: accf6b0a0e111"
  }

And if the subscription is successful, it will return the email, euid, leid on the data object

  {
    "data": {
      "email":"[e-mail]",
      "euid":"b0b8fdacbd",
      "leid":"430369209"
    }
  }
