Yii Mailer Library - Symfony Mailer Extension

1. Installation
2. Usage
3. Migrating from yiisoft/yii2-swiftmailer

This extension provides a Symfony Mailer mail solution for Yii framework 2.0.
For license information check the LICENSE-file.



Installation ¶The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.
Either run
php composer.phar require --prefer-dist yiisoft/yii2-symfonymailer

or add
"yiisoft/yii2-symfonymailer": "~2.0.0"

to the require section of your composer.json.
Usage ¶To use this extension, simply add the following code in your application configuration:
return [
//....
'components' => [
'mailer' => [
'class' => \yii\symfonymailer\Mailer::class,
'transport' => [
'scheme' => 'smtps',
'host' => '',
'username' => '',
'password' => '',
'port' => 465,
'dsn' => 'native://default',
],
'viewPath' => '@common/mail',
// send all mails to a file by default. You have to set
// 'useFileTransport' to false and configure transport
// for the mailer to send real emails.
'useFileTransport' => false,
],
],
];

or
`php
return [
//....
'components' => [
'mailer' => [
'class' => \yii\symfonymailer\Mailer::class,
'transport' => [
'dsn' => 'smtp://user:pass@smtp.example.com:25',
],
],
],

];
`
You can then send an email as follows:
Yii::$app->mailer->compose('contact/html')
->setFrom('from@domain.com')
->setTo($form->email)
->setSubject($form->subject)
->send();

Migrating from yiisoft/yii2-swiftmailer ¶Follow these steps to migrate from the deprecated yiisoft/yii2-swiftmailer to this extension:

1. Swiftmailer default transport was the SendmailTransport, while this extension will default to a NullTransport (sends no mail). You can use the swiftmailer default by defining in application config:
   `php
   'mailer' => [
   'class' => yii\symfonymailer\Mailer::class,
'transport' => [
'dsn' => 'sendmail://default',
],

   ],
   `
2. Codeceptions TestMailer specifies swiftmailer\Message as a default class in https://github.com/Codeception/module-yii2/blob/master/src/Codeception/Lib/Connector/Yii2/TestMailer.php#L8. This can also be changed by defining in test config:
   `php
   'mailer' => [
   'class' => yii\symfonymailer\Mailer::class,
'messageClass' => \yii\symfonymailer\Message::class,

   ],
   `
