This is useful for cases where you do not want to send sensitive data over email directly and you want to make that no sensitive information is kept in a recipient's mailbox without having control over that data. By using the expiring email driver of this package instead of the regular email driver in a notification, all that is sent to the receiver is a signed and expiring link to the original content of the email. Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require casperboone/laravel-expiring-email ``` You should publish and run the migrations with: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="CasperBoone\LaravelExpiringEmail\LaravelExpiringEmailServiceProvider" --tag="expiring-email-migrations" php artisan migrate ``` You can optionally publish the config file with: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="CasperBoone\LaravelExpiringEmail\LaravelExpiringEmailServiceProvider" --tag="expiring-email-config" ``` You can optionally publish the views to customize the replacement email with: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="CasperBoone\LaravelExpiringEmail\LaravelExpiringEmailServiceProvider" --tag="expiring-email-views" ``` An email immediately becomes inaccessible after the expiration date. However, to also remove the emails from your database after the expiration date, you should [schedule](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/scheduling#defining-schedules) "clean" command to be run daily. ``` // app/Console/Kernel.php protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule) { $schedule->command(CleanExpiredEmails::class)->daily(); } ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) The basic usage of this package is very easy, all you need to do is replace `'email'` in your `via()` method of a [notification](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/notifications) to the expiring email notification channel. ``` public function via($notifiable): array { - return ['mail']; + return [ExpiringEmailChannel::class]; } ``` This sends an email to the original receiver with a [signed](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/urls#signed-urls) expiring link to the content of the original email. The default expiration date is set in the config file but can be set on a case-by-case basis in the notification using `ExpiringMailMessage`: ``` public function toMail($notifiable): MailMessage { - return (new MailMessage) + return (new ExpiringMailMessage) ->subject('Secret document') + ->expiresInDays(7) ->markdown('secret_document_email'); } ``` Development ----------- [](#development) **Testing** ``` composer test ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information on what has changed recently.
