How to send mail

For that you will be able to add your configurations to the .env file.

# Using SMTP
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=example@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=secret
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls

# Or using Sendmail server
MAIL_DRIVER=sendmail
MAIL_SENDMAIL_PATH='/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs'

And after that you will be able to access the $mailer from your Routers and Controllers.

class MailController extends Controller
{
    public function index(Request $request, Response $response, $args)
    {
        $mailer = $this->mailer;

        // Create a message
        $message = (new \Swift_Message('Wonderful Subject'))
            ->setFrom(['john@doe.com' => 'John Doe'])
            ->setTo(['receiver@domain.org', 'other@domain.org' => 'A name'])
            ->setBody('Here is the message itself');

        // Send the message
        $result = $mailer->send($message);

        // returns `int(2)` on success
        var_dump($result);
    }
}
