Laravel Email Connect (IMAP)

Latest Release on Packagist Software License

Introduction

This Laravel package can open any Email Mailbox and access to its directories like inbox, sent items etc. Current version can only use the Imap protocol (PHP Imap), in the future releases using POP3 protocol will be added.

Installation

  • Use following command to install:
composer require danialpanah/mail-connect

This package supports Laravel auto-discovery feature. If you are using Laravel 6.x or greater no need to do any further actions, otherwise follow below steps to add this package manually to your application.

  • Add the service provider to your providers[] array in config/app.php in your laravel application:
DanialPanah\MailConnect\MailConnectServiceProvider::class
  • For using Laravel Facade add the alias to your aliases[] array in config/app.php in your Laravel application:
'MailConnect': DanialPanah\MailConnect\Facades\MailConnect::class

Configuration

  • After installation, you need to add your Email settings. You can update config/mailconnect.php published file or in you Laravel .env file.

  • Run the following command to publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider "DanialPanah\MailConnect\MailConnectServiceProvider"
  • config/webpay.php
return [
    'email_url' => env('MAIL_CONNECT_URL', null),
    'email_username' => env('MAIL_CONNECT_USERNAME', null),
    'email_password' => env('MAIL_CONNECT_PASSWORD', null)
];
  • Add this to .env.example and .env files:
#Email Connect Settings

#your Imap email url e.g "{localhost:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}"
MAIL_CONNECT_URL=

#your email username (could be same as your email address or any other username) e.g "me@danialrp.com"
MAIL_CONNECT_USERNAME=

#your email password
MAIL_CONNECT_USERNAME=

Usage

Following are some examples which you can use to initiate connection to your mailbox:

  • Open Imap connection and access to your mailbox contents:
// Importing the class namespaces before using it
use DanialPanah\MailConnect\MailConnect;

$mailConnect = new MailConnect();

$mailConnect->protocol = 'imap'; //select protocol
$mailConnect->directory = 'inbox'; //'inbox', 'sent' etc. see allowed Imap directories.
$mailConnect->criteria = 'all'; //'all', 'seen', 'unseen' etc. see allowed Imap criteria.

$messages = $mailConnect->openMailbox(); // get mailbox messages.


// Also Could be used with PHP method chaining 
$messages = $mailConnect
                 ->protocol('imap')
                 ->directory('inbox')
                 ->criteria('all')
                 ->openMailbox();
  • Using Facades :
use DanialPanah\MailConnect\MailConnect;

$messages = MailConnect::openMailbox();
