SilverStripe Mailer for sending mail via the Mailgun API
========================================================

[](#silverstripe-mailer-for-sending-mail-via-the-mailgun-api)

This module lets you send SilverStripe emails through the [official Mailgun PHP library](https://github.com/mailgun/mailgun-php), falling back to PHP's built-in `sendmail()` if Mailgun is unreachable.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 5.4+
- SilverStripe ~3.1
- [Mailgun-PHP](https://github.com/mailgun/mailgun-php)
- (optional) set up a manual cron task, or use silverstripe-crontask or silverstripe-queuedjobs(?) to keep log synced

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

[](#installation)

Install with Composer. [Learn how](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/getting_started/composer/#adding-modules-to-your-project)

```
composer require "micschk/silverstripe-mailer-mailgun:~1.0"

```

Documentation
-------------

[](#documentation)

You will need to provide a Mailgun API key for a verified domain that you have set up in your [Mailgun account](https://mailgun.com/app/domains/).

Also, if you want to synchronize the Mailgun log, you will need to set up some way to run/ Mailgun\_SyncLogTask::poll() every not and then. This gets the Mailgun events log from the API and saves it to the local database so you can see when messages got sent, openend and/or bounced etc.

Example configuration
---------------------

[](#example-configuration)

In your project's `_config/config.yml` file:

```
MailgunMailer:
  api_key: 'key-goes-here'
  api_domain: 'verified-domain'
```

In your project's `_config.php` file:

```
Injector::inst()->registerService(new MailgunMailer(), 'Mailer');
```

or:

```
// Send email through Mailgun in live environment only
if (Director::isLive()) {
	Injector::inst()->registerService(new MailgunMailer(), 'Mailer');
}
```
