```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Configure your mail template driver and credentials in `config/mail-template.php`.

### Basic

[](#basic)

After you've installed the package and filled in the values in the config-file working with this package will be a breeze. All the following examples use the facade. Don't forget to import it at the top of your file.

```
use MailTemplate;
```

```
$mailTemplate = MailTemplate::setSubject('Welcome aboard')
    ->setFrom(config('mail.name'), config('mail.email'))
    ->setRecipient('Recipient Name', 'recipient@email.com')
    ->setLanguage('en')
    ->setTemplate('welcome-aboard')
    ->addAttachment(storage_path('pdf/invoice.pdf'), 'invoice-42.pdf')
    ->trackClicks(true)
    ->trackOpens(true)
    ->setVariables([
        'first_name' => 'Recipient',
    ]);

$response = $mailTemplate->send();
```

If an error occurs in the send method it will throw a `SendError::responseError` exception.

### Via Notification

[](#via-notification)

Create a new notification via php artisan:

```
php artisan make:notification WelcomeNotification
```

Set `via` to `MailTemplateChannel`:

```
/**
 * Get the notification's delivery channels.
 *
 * @param  mixed  $notifiable
 * @return array
 */
public function via($notifiable)
{
    return [MailTemplateChannel::class];
}
```

Implement `toMailTemplate` method and prepare your template:

```
public function toMailTemplate($notifiable)
{
    return MailTemplate::setSubject('Welcome aboard')
        ->setFrom(config('mail.name'), config('mail.email'))
        ->setRecipient('Recipient Name', 'recipient@email.com')
        ->setLanguage('en')
        ->setTemplate('welcome-aboard')
        ->addAttachment(storage_path('pdf/invoice.pdf'), 'invoice-42.pdf')
        ->trackClicks(true)
        ->trackOpens(true)
        ->setVariables([
           'first_name' => 'Recipient',
        ]);
}
```

And that's it. When `MailTemplateChannel` will receive the notification it will automatically call `send` method from `MailTemplate` facade.
