{
    return [MandrillChannel::class];
}

public function toMandrill($notifiable)
{
    return (new MandrillMessage())
        ->subject('Purchase successful')
        ->addTo($notifiable->email)
        ->view('mandrill-template-name', [
            'product' => $this->product->toArray(),
            'user' => [
                'name' => $notifiable->name,

#### Advanced

[](#advanced)

```
public function toMandrill($notifiable)
{
    return (new MandrillMessage())
        ->subject('Purchase successful')
        ->templateName('mandrill-template-name')
        ->addTo($notifiable->email)
        ->addTos(['a@example.com', 'b@example.com'])
        ->fromName('Customized From')
        ->fromEmail('custom_from@example.com')
        ->replyTo('reply@example.com')
        ->attach($notifiable->file)
        ->content([
            'product' => $this->product->toArray(),
        ]);
}
```

Available methods
-----------------

[](#available-methods)

MethodTypeDescription`subject``string`Sets the email subject`templateName``string`Sets template name in Mandrill`addTo``string`Adds a To email`addTos``array`Adds multiple To emails`fromName``string`Overrides the default from name`fromEmail``string`Overrides the default from email`content``array`Content array`attach``array`Adds a file`replyTo``string`Accepts one parameter(`$email`)`view``function`Accepts 2 params (`$templateName`, `$keyedContentArray`)`setKey``string`Changes the API key**Note: To keep it consistent with laravel's `Mail` implementation of `replyTo`, you can pass two parameters, second parameter is ignored, and If `replyTo` is called multiple times only first one will be used and others will be ignored. Because mandrill only allows one email address for reply to.**

Usage in Mandrill (Dynamic Handlebars)
--------------------------------------

[](#usage-in-mandrill-dynamic-handlebars)

When specifying your content in the methods `content` or `view` you can then write in [handlebars syntax](https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205582537-Using-Handlebars-for-Dynamic-Content) in your Mandrill templates like this;

Hey `{{user.name}}`, you have successfully purchased `{{product.name}}`.

Mailchimp syntax
----------------

[](#mailchimp-syntax)

If you wish to use [Mailchimp Merge Tags](https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205582787-Mailchimp-Merge-Tags-Supported-in-Mandrill) instead of the dynamic handlebars then you can set the `$mergeLanguage` optional param in `templateName` method to `mailchimp`.

In mailchimp merge tags, arrays are not supported, so each tag only accepts a string. [Full documentation including booked keywords on mandrill](https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205582787-Mailchimp-Merge-Tags-Supported-in-Mandrill)

#### Mailchimp Example

[](#mailchimp-example)

```
public function toMandrill($notifiable)
{
    return (new MandrillMessage())
        ->subject('Purchase successful')
        ->templateName('mandrill-template-name', 'mailchimp') addTo($notifiable->email)
        ->content([
            'customer_name' => $notifiable->name,
            'invoice_link' => 'http://example.com/download/invoice.pdf',
        ])
}
```

Then in your mandrill template use as follows;

Hi `*|customer_name|*`, you can download your invoice from here `*|invoice_link|*`,
