Swift Mailer is an open source PHP Mailer library.
This spark exists to quickly integrate SwiftMailer's mailing features with CodeIgniter 2.
Navigate to the root of your CodeIgniter project and run
php tools/spark install swift-mailer
- Navigate to your CodeIgniter project's 'sparks' folder
- Extract the swift-mailer spark here, ensure it is named 'swift-mailer'
SwiftMailer documentation can be found at http://swiftmailer.org.
You may want to start by creating messages then follow up by sending messages.
Throw this into a controller and give it a run. Make sure that the sendmail path is correct.
$this->load->spark('swift-mailer/0.1.9');
// create the transport
$transport = Swift_SendmailTransport::newInstance('/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs');
// create the mailer that will use the transport
$mailer = Swift_Mailer::newInstance($transport);
// create the message
$message = Swift_Message::newInstance();
$message->setSubject('test');
$message->setFrom('[email protected]');
$message->setTo(array('[email protected]' => 'Your Name'));
$message->setBody('This is the body.');
// send the message
$mailer->send($message);
If you prefer to use abstraction mode then configure the spark by editing sparks/swift-mailer//config/swift-mailer.php then use:
$this->load->spark('swift-mailer/0.1.9');
$this->swiftmailer->create_message('test_message', 'Test message subject.', 'message body', '[email protected]', '[email protected]');
$result = $this->swiftmailer->send_message('test_message');
Swift Mailer was originally created and maintained by Chris Corbyn. Paul Annesley and Christopher Thompson joined the team in 2009. In September of 2009 Fabien Potencier took over maintenance of the project.
This spark was created and is maintained by Shawn McCool, is hosted on GitHub, and is made possible by the GetSparks team. Please support their project!
