Prerequisites

• Guzzle

Domain Key

You will need to provide your apostle domain key to send emails.

Apostle::setup("your-domain-key");

Sending Email

Sending a single email is easy, the first param is your template's slug, and the second is an array of data.

use Apostle\Mail;

$mail = new Mail(
	"template-slug",
	array("email" => "[email protected]", "name" => "Mal Curtis")
);

$mail->deliver();

You don‘t have to add the data at initialization time, feel free to add it after. You can add in any data your template needs too.

$mail = new Mail("template-slug");
$mail->email = "[email protected]";
$mail->name = "Mal Curtis";
$mail->from = "[email protected]";
$mail->replyTo = "[email protected]";
$mail->website = "apostle.io"; // You can add any data your template needs

$mail->deliver();

Attachments can be added by supplying a filename and content as a string.

$mail = new Mail("template-slug");
$mail->addAttachment("test.txt", "Some test text");
$mail->deliver();

Failure

Pass a variable for failure information to the deliver method.

$mail = new Apostle\Mail("template-slug");

echo $mail->deliver($failure);
// false

echo $failure;
// No email provided

Sending Multiple Emails

To speed up processing, you can send more than one email at a time.

use Apostle\Mail;
use Apostle\Queue;

$queue = new Queue();

for($i=0;$i<5;$i++){
	$mail = new Mail("template-slug");
	$mail->email = "user" . $i . "@example.org";
	$queue->add($mail);
}

$queue->deliver();

Failures

If any Mail object fails validation then no emails will be sent. To retrieve failed objects, you can supply a variable to be populated.

use Apostle\Mail;
use Apostle\Queue;

$queue = new Queue();

$mail = new Mail("template-slug");
$queue->add($mail);


$mail = new Mail(null, ["email" => "[email protected]"]);
$queue->add($mail);


echo $queue->deliver($failures);
// false

echo count($failures);
// 2

echo $failures[0]->deliveryError();
// "No email provided"

echo $failures[1]->deliveryError();
// "No template provided"
