HautziSystemMailBundle
, (*1)
This bundle abstracts away sending system Messages. If instanciating a Swift_Message
instance in your controllers
seems fishy to you, this is probably what you are looking for., (*2)
This idea of this Bundle is to create some sort of XML configuration for each system mail to be sent (like "you have
registered successfully, please activate your account" or "hey dude, you haven't been wasted your money on our platform
for 10 days, please come back"), leveraging the power of twig., (*3)
Hey, why not looking in the code? It's kind of self-explanatory:, (*4)
// AppBundle/Resources/emails/send-info.xml.twig
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<email xmlns="http://christoph-hautzinger.de/schema/system-mail-bundle"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://christoph-hautzinger.de/schema/system-mail-bundle http://christoph-hautzinger.de/schema/system-mail-bundle/email-1.0.xsd">
<to name="{{ user.name }}">{{ user.email }}</to>
<subject locale="de">Hallo {{ user.name }}</subject>
<subject locale="en">Hello {{ user.name }}</subject>
<messageHtml locale="en"><![CDATA[
Hallo {{ user.name }},
<a href="{{ url('') }}">please click this link</a>.
]]></messageHtml>
<messageText locale="en" removeIndent="true">
Hello {{ user.name }},
please click this link: {{ url('') }}
</messageText>
</email>
Then send out this mail explicitly by simply calling:, (*5)
// from your code simply call
$container->get('system_mailer')->send('emails/send-info.xml.twig', [
'user' => $user,
]);

Examples
$systemMailer = $container->get('system_mailer');
// sends out AppBundle/Resources/emails/registration/confirmUser.xml.twig
$systemMailer->send('emails/registration/confirmUser.xml.twig', ['user' => $user]);
// force locale of sent mail (when the recipient speaks another language than the user in the session)
$systemMailer->send('emails/info-mail.xml.twig', ['user' => $user], 'de');
// attach file to mail (or do something else with the Swift_Message instance)
$systemMailer->send('emails/message-with-pdf.xml.twig', [], null, function (\Swift_Message $message) {
$message->attach(\Swift_Attachment::fromPath('my-document.pdf'))
});
