Laravel Gmail

Gmail

Gmail API for Laravel 9

You need to create an application in the Google Console. Guidance here.

if you need Laravel 5 compatibility please use version 2.0.x. if you need Laravel 6 compatibility please use version 3.0.x. if you need Laravel 7 compatibility please use version 4.0.x. if you need Laravel 8 compatibility please use version 5.0.x.

Requirements

PHP ^8.0
Laravel 9

Installation

Add dacastro4/laravel-gmail to composer.json.

"dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^6.1"

Run composer update to pull down the latest version.

Or run

composer require dacastro4/laravel-gmail

Now open up config/app.php and add the service provider to your providers array.

'providers' => [
    Dacastro4\LaravelGmail\LaravelGmailServiceProvider::class,
]

Now add the alias.

'aliases' => [
    'LaravelGmail' => Dacastro4\LaravelGmail\Facade\LaravelGmail::class,
]

For laravel >=5.5 that's all. This package supports Laravel new Package Discovery.

For <= PHP 7.4 compatibility use version v5.0

Migration from 5.0 to 6.0

Requires Laravel 9 and you have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^9.0" Please, follow Upgrading To 9.0 From 8.x Guide

Migration from 4.0 to 5.0

Requires Laravel 8 and you have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^8.0" Please, follow Upgrading To 8.0 From 7.x Guide

Migration from 3.0 to 4.0

Requires Laravel 7 and you have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^7.0" Please, follow Upgrading To 7.0 From 6.x Guide

Migration from 2.0 to 3.0

Requires Laravel 6 and you only have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^6.0"

Migration from 1.0 to 2.0

The only changed made was the multi credentials feature.

Change your composer.json from "dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^1.0" to "dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^2.0"

I had to change version because of a typo and that might break apps calling those attributes.

All variable with the word "threat" was change to "thread" (yeah, I know.. sorry) Ex:

Mail Class $threatId => $threadId

Replyable Class $mail->setReplyThreat() => $mail->setReplyThread()

and so on.

Migration from 0.6 to 1.0

The only changed made was the multi credentials feature.

Change your composer.json from "dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^0.6" to "dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^1.0"

If you don't want the multi user credentials, you don't have to do anything else, if you do, you're going to have to login again to create a new credentials file per user.

Configuration

You only have to set the following variables on your .env file and you'll be on your way:

GOOGLE_PROJECT_ID=
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=
GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI=
GOOGLE_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_CREDENTIALS
GOOGLE_ALLOW_JSON_ENCRYPT

To modify the scopes and the credentials file name, just run:

Run php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Dacastro4\LaravelGmail\LaravelGmailServiceProvider" and modify the config file config/gmail.php.

Allow multi user credentials

To allow multi user credentials change allow_multiple_credentials to true in your config file or set the .env variable GOOGLE_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_CREDENTIALS to true if you're not using the config file.

Allow encryption for json files

To allow encryption for json files change allow_json_encrypt to true in your config file or set the .env variable GOOGLE_ALLOW_JSON_ENCRYPT to true if you're not using the config file.

Available Scopes

all (this one doesn't exists on Gmail Scopes, I added it.)
compose
insert
labels
metadata
modify
readonly
send
settings_basic
settings_sharing

More about Gmail API scopes

Note: To change the scopes, users have to logout and login again.

Additional Scopes

If for some reason you need to add additional scopes.

Add additional scopes in URL Style in config/gmail.php

 'additional_scopes' => [
            'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive',
            'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/documents',
            'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets'
    ],

Example

Welcome Blade:

<body>
    <h1>{{ LaravelGmail::user() }}</h1>
    @if(LaravelGmail::check())
        <a href="{{ url('oauth/gmail/logout') }}">logout</a>
    @else
        <a href="{{ url('oauth/gmail') }}">login</a>
    @endif
</body>

Routes:

Route::get('/oauth/gmail', function (){
    return LaravelGmail::redirect();
});

Route::get('/oauth/gmail/callback', function (){
    LaravelGmail::makeToken();
    return redirect()->to('/');
});

Route::get('/oauth/gmail/logout', function (){
    LaravelGmail::logout(); //It returns exception if fails
    return redirect()->to('/');
});

Then if in your controller or wherever you want to do your logic, you do something like:

$messages = LaravelGmail::message()->subject('test')->unread()->preload()->all();
foreach ( $messages as $message ) {
    $body = $message->getHtmlBody();
    $subject = $message->getSubject();
}

Note that if you don't preload the messages you have to do something like: $body = $message->load()->getSubject(); and after that you don't have to call it again.

Pagination

Use $messages->hasNextPage() to check whether next page is available. Use $messages->next() to get the next page results, which uses the same parameters (result per page, filters, etc.) when you loaded the first page. Use $messages->getPageToken() to get the unique identifier for the next page token. This is useful in creating a unique idendifier when storing the result in cache. Generally speaking, it is a bad practice to use API for pagination. It is slow and costly. Therefore, it is recommended to retrieve the cached result moving between pages and only flush the cache when have to.

message()->subject($subject)

->after($date) and ->before($date)
