README
System for users to send each other private messages.
- A user configurable ignorelist and admin configurable whitelist (administrators are able to fine-tune the definition of which users are able to write to whom) is supported.
- Encryption is not (yet?) supported.
- Uses Font Awesome (http://fontawesome.io/) for some icons
- Every message sent inside the messaging system can be forwarded to the recipient be e-mail automatically.
Prerequisites:
You need a Model with the 'id' and 'username' attributes. This needs to be an ActiveRecord or Model instance.
I suggest to use https://github.com/dektrium/yii2-user which works wonderful with this module.
Installation
$ composer require songyue/yii2-message $ php yii migrate/up --migrationPath=@vendor/songyue/yii2-message/migrations
Configuration
Add following lines to your main configuration file:
'modules' => [ 'message' => [ 'class' => 'songyue\message\Module', 'userModelClass' => '\app\models\User', // your User model. Needs to be ActiveRecord. ], ],
Sending E-Mails
If you want the system to automatically send E-Mails via Yii::$app->mailer you only need to provide an 'email' column in your ActiveRecord Model.
Use the $mailMessages module option to define which users are getting E-Mails. For Example:
'mailMessages' => function ($user) { return $user->profile->receive_emails === true; },
You can overwrite the default e-mail views and layout by providing an @app/mail/ directory inside your Application.
Mailqueue
From version 0.4 and above you can use yii2-queue (https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-queue) to send messages via a mail queue. Once you have yii2-queue configured in your application you can set
'useMailQueue' => true,
to let yii2-message push an EmailJob on to your queue instead of sending the E-Mail directly.
If you want to use an mailqueue like https://github.com/nterms/yii2-mailqueue you can override the 'mailer' configuration option in the module configuration. Since yii2-queue is stable and an official extension i personally prefer to use yii2-queue instead of 3rd party extensions.
Ignore List and Recipients Filter
The user can manage his own ignore list using the message/message/ignorelist route. You can place a callback that defines which users should be able to be messaged. For example, if you do not want your users to be able to write to admin users, do this:
'recipientsFilterCallback' => function ($users) { return array_filter($users, function ($user) { return !$user->isAdmin; }); },
The recipients filter is applied after the ignore list.
Actions
The following Actions are possible:
- inbox: https://your-domain/message/message/inbox
- sent messages: https://your-domain/message/message/sent
- compose a message: https://your-domain/message/message/compose
- delete a message: https://your-domain/message/message/delete/hash/
- view a message: https://your-domain/message/message/view/hash/
- manage your ignorelist: https://your-domain/message/message/ignorelist
You can place this code snippet in your layouts/main.php to give your users access to the message actions:
$messagelabel = '<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-envelope"></span>'; $unread = Message::find()->where(['to' => $user->id, 'status' => 0])->count(); if ($unread > 0) $messagelabel .= '(' . $unread . ')'; echo Nav::widget([ 'encodeLabels' => false, // important to display HTML-code (glyphicons) 'items' => [ // ... [ 'label' => $messagelabel, 'url' => '', 'visible' => !Yii::$app->user->isGuest, 'items' => [ ['label' => 'Inbox', 'url' => ['/message/message/inbox']], ['label' => 'Sent', 'url' => ['/message/message/sent']], ['label' => 'Compose a Message', 'url' => ['/message/message/compose']], ['label' => 'Manage your Ignorelist', 'url' => ['/message/message/ignorelist']], ] ], // ... ]);
Since 0.3.0 you can render the compose view inside an Modal Widget like this:
use kartik\growl\GrowlAsset; use yii\bootstrap\Modal; use yii\helpers\Url; GrowlAsset::register($this); Modal::begin(['id' => 'compose-message', 'header' => '<h2>Compose new Message</h2>']); Modal::end(); $recipient_id = 1337; # write an message to user with id 1337 echo Html::a('<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-envelope"></span> Compose Message', '', [ 'class' => 'btn btn-default btn-contact-user', 'data-recipient' => $recipient_id, 'data-pjax' => 0 ]); $message_url = Url::to(['//message/message/compose']); $this->registerJs(" $('.modal-body').on('click', '.btn-send-message', function(event) { if ($('#message-title').val()) { $.post('".$message_url."', $('#message-form').serializeArray(), function() { $.notify({message: 'Message has been sent successfully.'}, {type: 'success'}); $('#compose-message').modal('hide'); }); } else { $('.modal-body').prepend('<div class=\"alert alert-warning\">Please enter a title at least.</div>'); } event.preventDefault(); }); $('.modal-body').on('submit', '#message-form', function(event) { $('.btn-send-message').click(); event.preventDefault(); }); $('body').on('click', '.btn-contact-user', function(event) { $('#compose-message').modal(); recipient = $(this).data('recipient'); $.ajax('".$message_url."?to='+recipient+'&add_to_recipient_list=1', { 'success': function(result) { $('.modal-body').html(result); } }); event.preventDefault(); }); ");
For some common url rules, you can copy Module::$urlRules into your 'rules' section of the URL Manager.
