Getting started --------------- [](#getting-started) ``` // Create a "server" in your "rack", then copy it's API key $postmarkApiKey = 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'; // Create a message and send it Postmark\Mail::compose($postmarkApiKey) ->from('john@smith.com', 'John Smith') ->addTo('jane@smith.com', 'Jane Smith') ->subject('Subject') ->messagePlain('Plaintext message') ->send(); ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) There are two ways of configuration. ### Adapter [](#adapter) An adapter class should be used for a more dynamic configuration. The adapter must implement Postmark\\MailAdapterInterface. These are the methods that must be implemented. - `getApiKey` - Should return the API key - `setupDefaults(Postmark\Mail &$mail)` - May be used to setup a default email, e.g. set From address. - `log($logData)` - Is called immediately after the email is sent. `$logdata` is an array with keys `messageData`, `return`, `curlError` and `httpCode`. See `Tests/Adapter.php` for example usage. Usage ----- [](#usage) ``` Postmark\Mail::compose($postmarkApiKey) ->from('address@example.com', 'Name') ->addTo('address@example.com', 'Name') ->subject('Subject') ->messagePlain('Plaintext message') ->send(); ``` or: ``` $email = new Postmark\Mail($postmarkApiKey); $email->from('address@example.com', 'Name') ->addTo('address@example.com', 'Name') ->subject('Subject') ->messagePlain('Plaintext message') ->send(); ``` Error handling -------------- [](#error-handling) See PHPDOC for details on Exceptions thrown. If no API key is set, an E\_USER\_ERROR will be raised. Debugging --------- [](#debugging) Call method `debug(Postmark\Mail::DEBUG_VERBOSE)` or `debug(Postmark\Mail::DEBUG_RETURN)` to enable debug mode. `DEBUG_VERBOSE` prints debug info and `DEBUG_RETURN` makes `send()` return debug info as an array. Unit tests ---------- [](#unit-tests) Unit tests are located in `Tests/`. Simple test is the unit test framework being used. `Adapter.php` runs all tests relevant for adapter configuration. E-mail address validation ------------------------- [](#e-mail-address-validation) This class uses a regular expression to validate e-mail addresses, in addition to the validation Postmark does. This regex isn't perfect. If you need more extensive validation, please try . ### Health Score 38 — LowBetter than 85% of packages Maintenance19 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity48 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community22 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity53 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 87.5% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
