Mailer

Mailer copied to clipboard

Basic Usage:

1. Customize the congfiguration setting in /config/mailer.php

   array( 'transport' => 'smtp', 'options' => array ( 'hostname' => 'smtp.mail.com', 'username' => '[email protected]', 'password' => 'password', 'encryption'=> 'ssl', 'port' => '465', ), ), 'development' => array( 'transport' => 'smtp' ) );

2. Create a class that extends the Mailer class and save it to /classes/mailer/class_name.php (Minus the Mailer_)

   config = Kohana::$environment; } public function welcome($args) { $this->to = array('[email protected]' => 'Tom'); $this->bcc = array('[email protected]' => 'Admin'); $this->from = array('[email protected]' => 'The Team'); $this->subject = 'Welcome!'; $this->attachments = array('/path/to/file/file.txt', '/path/to/file/file2.txt'); $this->data = $args; } }

3. Create the view for the email and save it to /views/mailer/class_name/method_name.php (Minus the Mailer_)

   Welcome = $user['name']; ?>,

   We are glad you signed up for our web app. Hope you enjoy.

4. Use the Mailer_User class in one of your controllers

   public function action_submit() { $data = array( 'user' => array( 'name' => 'Tom' ) );

    Mailer::factory('user')->send_welcome();
   
    //you can also pass arguments to the mailer
    Mailer::factory('user')->send_welcome($data);
   
    //you can also use instance
    Mailer::instance('user')->send_welcome($data);
   
    //you can also pass arguments in factory
    Mailer::factory('user', 'welcome', $data);
   
    //you can also send direct from the controller
    Mailer::instance()
    	->to('[email protected]')
    	->from('[email protected]')
    	->subject('Welcome!')
    	->html('Welcome!')
    	->send();
   

   }
