Requirements

  • PHP ^8.0
  • PDO PHP extension

Installation

composer require bayfrontmedia/mail-manager

Usage

NOTE: All exceptions thrown by Mail Manager extend Bayfront\MailManager\Exceptions\MailException, so you can choose to catch exceptions as narrowly or broadly as you like.

Adapter

A Bayfront\MailManager\AdapterInterface must be passed to both the Bayfront\MailManager\Mail, and the Bayfront\MailManager\MailQueue constructors. There are a variety of adapters available, each with their own required configuration.

In addition, you may also create and use your own adapters to be used with Mail Manager.

All adapters have a getInstance() method, which can be used to get the underlying instance used by the adapter.

PHPMailer

The PHPMailer adapter allows you to use PHPMailer for sending messages.

use Bayfront\MailManager\Adapters\PHPMailer;

$config = [
    'smtp' => true,
    'smtp_auth' => true,
    'smtp_secure' => 'tls', // STARTTLS or SMTPS
    'host' => 'mail.example.com',
    'port' => 587,
    'username' => 'your_name@example.com',
    'password' => 'your_password',
    'debug' => false
];

try {

    $adapter = new PHPMailer($config);

} catch (AdapterException $e) {
    die($e->getMessage());
}

The PHPMailer adapter also has a testConnection() method you can use to test for a successful connection to the SMTP server.

Start using Mail Manager

You may choose one of the following classes to use:

The Bayfront\MailManager\Mail class allows for the creation and immediate sending of messages. No database is needed.

The Bayfront\MailManager\MailQueue class is the same as above, only it requires a PDO instance to work with queued messages. Queued messages allow for messages to be sent programmatically at a later date.

Mail default configuration

use Bayfront\MailManager\Mail;

$mail = new Mail($adapter);

MailQueue default configuration

use Bayfront\MailManager\MailQueue;
use Bayfront\MailManager\Exceptions\QueueException;

$pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=example.com;dbname=database_name', 'username', 'password');

$queue_config = [
    'table' => 'mail_queue', // Name of database table to use
    'max_attempts' => 3 // Maximum number of failed sending attempts before deleting message
];

try {

    $queue = new MailQueue($adapter, $pdo, $queue_config);

} catch (QueueException $e) {
    die($e->getMessage());
}
