email-merge
===========

[](#email-merge)

PHP component for handling email templates with placeholder tokens. The email templates are assumed to be user-editable. Creating a new template requires declaring the set of allowable placeholder tokens. An exception will be thrown if the template text contains something that looks like a token but which is not expected.

Basic usage
===========

[](#basic-usage)

```
// Define allowed token names
$tokens = new TokenSet(array("USERNAME", "FOO", "BAR"));

// Email subject line may contain tokens also
$subject = "Hello %USERNAME%";

// HTML email body
$htmlBody =  "qq12345",
    "FOO" => "my foo value",
    "BAR" => "my bar value"
);

// A Parser instance will return Template objects containing interpolated values
$result = $parser->getResult($data);
```

Unexpected token
================

[](#unexpected-token)

```
// Define allowed token names
$tokens = new TokenSet(array("USERNAME", "FOO", "BAR"));

// token name not in allowed set
$subject = "Hello %NOT_A_LEGAL_TOKEN%";

// throws UnrecognizedTokenException
$tpl = new Template($subject, "", $tokens);
```
