Creating messages

<?php

use ICanBoogie\Mailer\Message;

$message = new Message([

	'from' => [ 'olivier@example.com' => "Olivier Laviale" ]
	'to' => "Person name<person@example.com>, person2@example.com",
	'subject' => "Testing message",
	'body' => "Hello world!"

]);

echo $message->header; // Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\r\nFrom: Olivier Laviale <olivier@ex…
echo $message;         // Hello world!

Sending a message

Messages are sent by a deliverer through a Mailer instance.

The following example demonstrates how a mailer can be used to send emails using the default mail deliverer:

<?php

use ICanBoogie\Mailer\Mailer;

$mailer = new Mailer;
$rc = $mailer($message);

The following example demonstrates how a mailer can be used to send emails using the file deliverer:

<?php

use ICanBoogie\Mailer\Mailer;
use ICanBoogie\Mailer\FileDeliverer;

$mailer = new Mailer(new FileDeliverer('/path/to/my/file');
$rc = $mailer($message);

ICanBoogie auto-config

The package supports the auto-config feature of the framework ICanBoogie and provides the following features:

• The lazy getter for the ICanBoogie\Core::$mailer property that returns a Mailer instance.
• The ICanBoogie\Core::mailer method that sends a message using the mailer.

<?php

$app = ICanBoogie\boot();
$app->mailer; //instace of ICanBoogie\Mailer\Mailer;
$app->mail([

	'to' => "example@example.com",
	'from' => "me@example.com",
	'subject' => "Testing",
	'body' => "Hello world!"

], $options = []);

Before and after the message is sent

If sender is defined in the mail() options the following events are triggered:

• The <class>:mail:before event of class BeforeMailEvent is fired before the message is sent by the mailer. Third parties may use this event to alter the message or the mailer that will be used to send it.
• The <class>:mail event of class MailEvent is fired after the message was sent by the mailer. Third parties may use this event to alter the result returned by the mailer.

Where <class> is the class of the sender.
