Laravel Mandrill Driver
=======================

[](#laravel-mandrill-driver)

This package re-enables Mandrill driver functionality using the Mail facade in Laravel 6+.

To install the package in your project, you need to require the package via Composer:

```
composer require therobfonz/laravel-mandrill-driver
```

To add your Mandrill secret key, add the following lines to `config\services.php` and set `MANDRILL_KEY` in your env:

```
'mandrill' => [
    'secret' => env('MANDRILL_KEY'),
],
```

You can also add custom Mandrill headers to each email sent, for this you need to add the headers array in the following format to `config\services.php`:

```
'mandrill' => [
    'secret' => env('MANDRILL_KEY'),
    'headers' => [
        'header-example-x' => env('MANDRILL_HEADER_X'),
        'header-example-y' => env('MANDRILL_HEADER_Y'),
    ]
],
```

all the valid options in Mandrill docs at:

#### Accessing Mandrill message ID

[](#accessing-mandrill-message-id)

Mandrill message ID's for sent emails can be accessed by listening to the `MessageSent` event. It can then be read either from the sent data or the X-Message-ID header.

```
Event::listen(\Illuminate\Mail\Events\MessageSent::class, function($event)
{
    $messageId = $event->sent->getMessageId();
    $messageId = $event->message->getHeaders()->get('X-Message-ID');
}

```
