CakePHP remains responsible for rendering the message. Symfony Mailer is responsible for delivery, so multipart alternatives, attachments, inline `cid:` images, and CakePHP headers are preserved. Why use this bridge? -------------------- [](#why-use-this-bridge) Keep CakePHP's mailer API, templates, localization, and MIME composition while gaining Symfony Mailer's transport ecosystem: - Use provider bridges and HTTP API transports for services such as Mailgun, Amazon SES, Postmark, and SendGrid. - Switch between Mailpit or SMTP locally and an API-backed provider in production through configuration alone. - Configure Symfony's failover and round-robin transports without changing application mailers. - Preserve multipart text/HTML messages, attachments, inline `cid:` images, custom headers, and envelope recipients. - Keep delivery concerns out of application mailers: CakePHP builds the message and Symfony Mailer delivers it. Symfony Mailer documentation ---------------------------- [](#symfony-mailer-documentation) This bridge delegates transport selection and delivery to Symfony Mailer. See the [Symfony Mailer documentation](https://symfony.com/doc/current/mailer.html) for DSN syntax, built-in transports, TLS settings, failover, and round-robin delivery. For provider-backed delivery, see [Using a 3rd-party transport](https://symfony.com/doc/current/mailer.html#using-a-3rd-party-transport). Install the provider bridge for the mailer you choose. API-based transports also require Symfony's `symfony/http-client` package; provider bridges do not necessarily install that optional HTTP client themselves. SMTP, Sendmail, and Native transports do not need it. This plugin remains provider-agnostic and supports any transport accepted by Symfony Mailer. ### Commonly supported mailers [](#commonly-supported-mailers) Symfony Mailer provides provider bridges for commonly used services including: MailerSymfony bridgeAhaSend`symfony/aha-send-mailer`Amazon SES`symfony/amazon-mailer`Azure Communication Services`symfony/azure-mailer`Brevo`symfony/brevo-mailer`Mailgun`symfony/mailgun-mailer`Mailjet`symfony/mailjet-mailer`MailerSend`symfony/mailer-send-mailer`Mailtrap`symfony/mailtrap-mailer`Microsoft Graph`symfony/microsoft-graph-mailer`Postmark`symfony/postmark-mailer`Resend`symfony/resend-mailer`SendGrid`symfony/sendgrid-mailer`Symfony also includes built-in `smtp`, `sendmail`, and `native` transports. The provider list changes over time; consult the [Symfony provider table](https://symfony.com/doc/current/mailer.html#using-a-3rd-party-transport) for the complete, current list and each provider's DSN format. Gmail's transport is intended as a convenience for development and testing, not as a production delivery service. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.2 or newer - CakePHP 5.2 or newer - Symfony Mailer 7.4 or newer within the 7.x series Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require josbeir/cakephp-symfony-mailer bin/cake plugin load CakeSymfonyMailer ``` Install the Symfony provider bridge and any additional component required by the chosen DSN. The Mailgun bridge depends on `symfony/mailer`, but its HTTP API transport does not pull in `symfony/http-client` automatically. For Mailgun API delivery, install both explicitly: ``` composer require symfony/mailgun-mailer symfony/http-client ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Configure the transport through CakePHP's normal `EmailTransport` settings: ``` use CakeSymfonyMailer\Mailer\Transport\SymfonyMailerTransport; 'EmailTransport' => [ 'default' => [ 'className' => SymfonyMailerTransport::class, 'dsn' => env('MAILER_DSN'), ], ], ``` Examples of Symfony DSNs include: ``` # Mailgun API (install symfony/mailgun-mailer and symfony/http-client) MAILER_DSN='mailgun+https://API_KEY:DOMAIN@default' # SMTP MAILER_DSN='smtp://user:password@smtp.example.com:587?require_tls=true' # Symfony failover transport MAILER_DSN='failover(smtp://user:password@smtp.example.com:587 smtp://user:password@smtp-backup.example.com:587)' ``` Follow Symfony Mailer's DSN escaping rules for credentials containing reserved URI characters. Development ----------- [](#development) ``` composer install composer test composer cs-check composer stan composer rector-check ``` The checks run PHPUnit, PHPCS, PHPStan at level 10, and Rector in dry-run mode. Coverage is collected separately with: ``` composer test-coverage ``` The CI coverage job requires a coverage driver and publishes a Clover report for `src/`. License ------- [](#license) MIT.
