Mailer
======

[](#mailer)

A PHP Mailer library
--------------------

[](#a-php-mailer-library)

Mailer is a super simple mail package wrapping the Symfony `SwiftMailer`

### Dependencies

[](#dependencies)

This package -as a standalone- has a dependency that has to be manually installed. This of course applies if your app doesn't already have it installed.

This dependency is the `vlucas\phpdotenv` package.

```
composer require vlucas/phpdotenv

```

Also, a properly configured `env` file

### Environmental Variables

[](#environmental-variables)

This package needs the following variables set up in you env file, at least as a empty field:

```
MAIL_HOST
MAIL_USERNAME
MAIL_PASSWORD
MAIL_PORT
MAIL_ENCRYPTION
```

### Usage

[](#usage)

With the helper `mailer()` which is the same as `new MDP\Mailer`

```
mailer()->send($subject, $mailFrom, $nameFrom, $recipients, $body);
```

You can add as a sixth parameter the **priority** as an integer, being `1` the highest and `5` the lowest. This can be achieved also using the swiftmailer constants:

```
Swift_Mime_SimpleMessage::PRIORITY_HIGHEST; // 1
Swift_Mime_SimpleMessage::PRIORITY_HIGH; // 2
Swift_Mime_SimpleMessage::PRIORITY_NORMAL; // 3
Swift_Mime_SimpleMessage::PRIORITY_LOW; // 4
Swift_Mime_SimpleMessage::PRIORITY_LOWEST; // 5
```
