Codeigniter4 email queue
========================

[](#codeigniter4-email-queue)

Queue, preview and and send emails stored in the database.

This package provides an interface for creating emails on the fly and store them in a queue to be processed later by an offline worker using a Codeigniter4 CLI command.

------------

[](#requirements)

- Codeigniter 4.x
- codeigniter4/settings

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require kgrruz/codeigniter4-email-queue
```

### run migrations command:

[](#run-migrations-command)

```

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

You must set these configuration in the **app/Config/Email.php** or set these values using the [codeigniter4/settings](https://github.com/codeigniter4/settings) package before using it:

```
    setting('Email.fromEmail')
    setting('Email.fromName')
    setting('Email.protocol')
```

In case of SMTP protocol:

```
    setting('Email.SMTPHost')
    setting('Email.SMTPPort')
    setting('Email.SMTPUser')
    setting('Email.SMTPPass')
    setting('Email.SMTPCrypto')
    setting('Email.SMTPTimeout')
    setting('Email.SMTPKeepAlive')
```

Default email settings:

```
    $config['mailpath'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
    $config['wordWrap'] = true;
    $config['mailType'] = 'html';
```

Whenever you need to send an email, use the EmailQueue model to create and queue a new one by storing the correct data:

```
use EmailQueue\EmailQueue;
EmailQueue::enqueue($to, $subject, $attachments, $data);

```

- First argument is a string of email addresses that will be treated as recipients.
- Second argument is an string with the email subject
- Third argument is an array of files paths
- Fourth argument is an array of view variables to be passed to the email template

- `message`: Email's body text/html

    $data\['message'\] = "hello world message";
