Informations about the package utils.mailer.db-mail-service

Mouf's DBMailService

Storing outgoing mails

In Mouf, emails are sent using MailServices.
This package contains a mailer that does not send any mail! Instead, it stores the mail to be sent in a database table. The DB mailer can also forward the mail to a real mailer that will indeed send the mail (usually a SmtpMailService)

Mails are stored in the outgoing_mails table while "from", "to", "cc" and "bcc" fields are stored in the outgoing_mail_addresses table. The stored mails can later be viewed using Mouf's user interface and can also be accessed through methods of this class.

This UI is great in a development process, when you want to actually see what your application is sending without actually sending the mail, but is also very useful in production, in order to be able to verify what mails your application is sending.

Installing DBMailService

There is an install process for this package. It will create a database patch. Once you have run the install process, you will need to install the patch.

The patch will create 2 tables if they are not alreay there: outgoing_mails and outgoing_mail_addresses.

The install process will also create a dbMailService instance that will be connected to the current dbConnection (if it exists) and will use the mailService instance to actually send the mail.

Usage sample

You use this service as you would use any MailService.

For instance, to send a mail, you just need to write:

Additional features

If you pass an instance of DBMail (or any class implementing DBMailInterface) to the send method of the service, you can add an additionnal category and a type to your mail. That could be used to sort sent mails later.

Here is a modified sample using DBMail.

Accessing the sent mails database

You can access the sent mails database directly from the Mouf administration interface. You just need to click on the Utils menu and click the View outgoing mails submenu.

As you can see in the screenshot, you can view the list of sent mails. A full-text search box will search the whole outgoing mails.

Forwarding mails

The DBMailService is very useful because it stores the mails in database. Obviously, you can use it for debugging purposes. However, most of the time, you will want to store the mail in database AND send it. For this, the DBMailService can forward the mail to another mail service. You just need to edit the Mouf's instance of the service and set the forward service:
