REQUIREMENTS

This module requires the Mail System module

It also relies upon the MailerSend PHP SDK

INSTALLATION

  • Install as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module, ideally managed by Composer

  • Enable the module from Admin » Extend or with drush en mailersend.

CONFIGURATION

  1. Acquire a MailerSend API key
  2. Set MailerSend API Key in Admin » Configuration » Web Services (admin/config/services/mailersend).

Remaining options:

  • Queue Outgoing Messages

    • Don't send mail directly, but adds it to the queue. During cron X number of items from queue is going to be processed and mails sent.
  • From address

    • The email address that emails should be sent from
  • HTML mails

    • Add support to send HTML mails without any other module
  • HTML format

    • An input format to apply to the message body before sending emails.
  • Analytics Options

    • Track opens: Toggles open tracking for messages
    • Track clicks: Toggles click tracking for messages
    • Track content: The HTML of all sent emails will be stored in the email activity (only applicable for paid accounts).
  1. Update Mail System settings:
  • MailerSend Mail interface is enabled by using the Mail System module.
  • Go to the Mail System configuration page to start sending emails through MailerSend. Once you do this, you'll see a list of the module keys that are using MailerSend listed near the top of the MailerSend settings page.
  • Once you set the site-wide default (and any other listed module classes) to MailerSend Mailer, your site will immediately start using MailerSend to deliver all outgoing email.
  • Module/key pairs: The key is optional, not every module or email uses a key. That is why on the mail system settings page, you may see some modules listed without keys. For more details about this, see the mail system configuration page (admin/config/system/mailsystem).

SEND TEST EMAIL

The Send Test Email tab sends an email manually, through the MailerSend and the configured options.

HTML EMAILS

When you enable HTML emails to be sent via MailerSend integration, default template is located inside folder templates called mailersend-message.html.twig.

Best practice would be that you copy this template in your theme and adjust styling according to your needs.

ADVANCED OPTIONS

  1. Altering MailerSend parameters via event subscriber On each mail sent event MailerSendEmailEvent is fired. Via event subscriber you can alter parameters for MailerSend before call is made to MailerSend API.

See official PHP SDK for more detailed information what options are available https://github.com/mailersend/mailersend-php#email-api

  1. MailerSend templates and personalization There is no out of box solution provided. You can via MailerSendEmailEvent sent template id or personalization variables.
