README
Laravel 5 Package to help validate and verify your email addresses.
Note: This depends on the paid service from http://quickemailverification.com/.
Install
PHP 5.5+ or HHVM 3.3+, and Composer are required.
Via Composer
$ composer require unicodeveloper/laravel-email-validator
Another alternative is to simply add the following line to the require block of your composer.json
file.
"unicodeveloper/laravel-email-validator": "1.0.*"
Then run composer install
or composer update
to download it and have the autoloader updated.
Add this to your providers array in config/app.php
// Laravel 5: config/app.php 'providers' => [ ... Unicodeveloper\EmailValidator\EmailValidatorServiceProvider::class, ... ];
This package also comes with a facade
// Laravel 5: config/app.php 'aliases' => [ ... 'EmailValidator' => Unicodeveloper\EmailValidator\EmailValidatorFacade::class, ... ]
Publish the config file by running:
php artisan vendor:publish
The config file will now be located at config/emailValidator.php
.
Configuration
This is the emailValidator.php
file in the config
directory. Go to quickemailverification.com, sign up, get an api Key and insert here
/** * Config file that a user/developer can insert quickemailverficationservice api key */ return [ 'apiKey' => '' ];
Usage
With the Facades, all you need to do in your application is something like so:
print_r(EmailValidator::verify('kkkkk@example.com')->isValid()); // returns Array ( [0] => [1] => Could not get MX records for domain ) print_r(EmailValidator::verify('prosperotemuyiwa@gmail.com')->isValid()); // returns Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => SMTP server accepted email address ) var_dump( EmailValidator::verify('prosperotemuyiwa@gmail.com')->isValid()[0]); // returns bool(true) var_dump( EmailValidator::verify('kkkkk@example.com')->isValid()[0]); // returns bool(false) if( EmailValidator::verify('kkkkk@example.com')->isValid()[0] ){ ...... } // returns a true/false if the email address is valid or not
Other Methods Available
