Mandrill API for Zend Framework 3
=================================

[](#mandrill-api-for-zend-framework-3)

A PHP ZF3 client library for [Mandrill's API](https://mandrillapp.com/api/docs/).

This library provides all of the functionality present in the [official PHP client](https://bitbucket.org/mailchimp/mandrill-api-php/), but makes use of namespaces, provides helper classes to ease message sending and works with Zend Framework 3 (uses its library).

This library based on Joe Linn's library ().

Installation Using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/)
======================================================

[](#installation-using-composer)

```
composer require awsm3/mandrill-zend3
