README
Hoa is a modular, extensible and
structured set of PHP libraries.
Moreover, Hoa aims at being a bridge between industrial and research worlds.
Hoa\Mail
This library allows to compose and send rich emails (textual contents, HTML
documents, alternative contents, attachments etc., this is very extensible).
Email can be sent with sendmail or SMTP. The SMTP layer supports TLS and
PLAIN
, LOGIN
and CRAM-MD5
authentications.
In a near future, this library will also allow to receive and parse emails.
Installation
With Composer, to include this library into
your dependencies, you need to
require hoa/mail
:
$ composer require hoa/mail '~0.0'
For more installation procedures, please read the Source page.
Testing
Before running the mail suites, the development dependencies must be installed:
$ composer install
Then, to run all the test suites:
$ vendor/bin/hoa test:run
For more information, please read the contributor guide.
Quick usage
We propose a quick overview to send a very simple email with only one content, and then, a more complex email with an alternative content and an attachment.
Simple email
Before all, just like any messaging softwares, we have to setup the transport. We will send our email by using SMTP as the default transport. We will specify a socket to the SMTP server, a login and a password:
Hoa\Mail\Message::setDefaultTransport( new Hoa\Mail\Transport\Smtp( new Hoa\Socket\Client('tcp://mail.domain.tld:587'), 'gordon_freeman', '*********' ) );
Then, we will get an instance of a message and set all the headers, such as
From
, To
and Subject
, we will add a textual content and we will send it:
$message = new Hoa\Mail\Message(); $message['From'] = 'Gordon Freeman <gordon@freeman.hf>'; $message['To'] = 'Alyx Vance <alyx@vance.hf>'; $message['Subject'] = 'Hoa is awesome!'; $message->addContent( new Hoa\Mail\Content\Text('Check this out: http://hoa-project.net/!') ); $message->send();
Notice that we can use any view or template library to produce the content of the mail!
Rich email
Now, instead of having only one textual content, we will have an alternative content: either textual or HTML.
$message->addContent( // We have either… new Hoa\Mail\Content\Alternative([ // … a text content new Hoa\Mail\Content\Text( 'Check this out: http://hoa-project.net/!' ), // … or an HTML content. new Hoa\Mail\Content\Html( '<a href="http://hoa-project.net/">Check this ' . '<strong>out</strong>!</a>' ) ]) );
Then, to add an attachment, we will add a new kind of content. The attachment is
an image that will be named Foobar.jpg
. Thus:
$message->addContent( new Hoa\Mail\Content\Attachment( new Hoa\File\Read('Attachment.jpg'), 'Foobar.jpg' ) );
And finally, we send the email:
$message->send();
Complex email
Now imagine we do not want the image to be only attached but appear in the HTML content. These contents are related. Here is how to construct the email (with more variables to clarify):
// The image. $attachment = new Hoa\Mail\Content\Attachment( new Hoa\File\Read('Attachment.jpg'), 'Foobar.jpg' ); // The text content. $text = new Hoa\Mail\Content\Text('Check this out: http://hoa-project.net/!'); // The HTML content. $html = new Hoa\Mail\Content\Html( '<img src="' . // The HTML image URL is the attachment ID URL. $attachment->getIdUrl() . '" />' ); $message->addContent( // Alternative contents and attachment are related. new Hoa\Mail\Content\Related([ // We still have 2 alternative contents: text or HTML. new Hoa\Mail\Content\Alternative([$text, $html]), $attachment ]) );
