I am trying to get the mail using sendgrid in Yii 2 but it doesn't seem to work.Can any one tell me steps of sendgrid in yii2 .
You can use https://github.com/bryglen/yii2-sendgrid#yii-2-bryglen-sendgrid
Installation:
composer require --prefer-dist bryglen/yii2-sendgrid "*"
common/config/main.php
'components' => [
...
'sendGrid' => [
'class' => 'bryglen\sendgrid\Mailer',
'username' => 'your_user_name',
'password' => 'your password here',
//'viewPath' => '#app/views/mail', // your view path here
],
...
],
To send an email, you may use the following code:
$sendGrid = Yii::$app->sendGrid;
$message = $sendGrid->compose('contact/html', ['contactForm' => $form]);
$message->setFrom('from#domain.com')
->setTo($form->email)
->setSubject($form->subject)
->send($sendGrid);

I have a test and live environment. In test, I don't ever want to send the mailer mails. I have the mailer setup as a component in web.php like this
'mailer' => [
'class' => 'nickcv\mandrill\Mailer',
'apikey' => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
'useMandrillTemplates' => true,
'templateLanguage' => nickcv\mandrill\Mailer::LANGUAGE_HANDLEBARS,
],
Is there a way to set up the mailer component so it sends nowhere?
Thanks in advance.
Because mailer you are using extends yii\mail\BaseMailer you can simply set its $useFileTransport to true and the mail will be saved in file instead.
'mailer' => [
'class' => 'nickcv\mandrill\Mailer',
'apikey' => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
'useMandrillTemplates' => true,
'templateLanguage' => nickcv\mandrill\Mailer::LANGUAGE_HANDLEBARS,
'useFileTransport' => true,
],
Another option is creating a mock of mailer and using it instead of real mailer.
If you use codeception framework and its Yii2 module, the mailer component should be replaced automatically if you have email part enabled in codeception configs.

'mailer' => [

'useFileTransport' => false,
'transport' => [
'class' => 'Swift_SmtpTransport',
'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',
'username' => 'your email address (for testing on localhost use same as in ini files)',

], //end of mailer
Actually, I think it would be nice to receive somewhere your test emails for debugging and QA.
Personally, in dev environment, I would recommend setting up and configuring mailhog
'mailer' => [
'class' => 'yii\swiftmailer\Mailer',
'viewPath' => '#common/mail',
'transport' => [
'class' => 'Swift_SmtpTransport',
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => '1025',
],
],
It is straightforward to install following the steps described here: https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog
You can then go to http://localhost:8025 and see your inbox
This question already has an answer here:
Override Yii2 Swiftmailer Recipient
(1 answer)
Closed 5 years ago.
During the development and testing, I want the Yii2 mailer (swiftmailer) not to send emails to actual addresses, but replace it with developers` emails. Is there any setting in config to do it?
Just set the useFileTransport to true in component configuration for the development environment and all emails will not be sent but will be saved as files so you can easily test everything.
You should set configs for prod and dev environment.
Path for dev config (if you have advanced application template): yourProject/environments/dev/common/config/main-local.php and for prod: yourProject/environments/prod/common/config/main-local.php.
You may use EmailTarget class for logs.
Example of config for dev environment to reach the clue:
return [
'bootstrap' => ['log'],
'components' => [
...
'mailer' => [
'class' => 'yii\swiftmailer\Mailer',
'viewPath' => '#common/mail',
'useFileTransport' => true,//set this property to false to send mails to real email addresses
//comment the following array to send mail using php's mail function
],
'log' => [
'targets' =>
[
[
'class' => 'yii\log\EmailTarget',
'levels' => ['error'],
'except' => ['yii\web\HttpException:404'],
'message' => [
'to' => ['example#mail.ru'],
'from' => ['yourproject#mail.ru'],
'subject' => ' Errors ',
]
],
],
],
],
];
And similarly for prod environment but with different emails.
If you don't want to use EmailTarget class you may just set your emails for dev in params config here: yourProject/environments/dev/common/config/params-local.php.
And path for prod: yourProject/environments/prod/common/config/params-local.php
Params config example:
return [
'sendToEmails' => ['email1#mail.ru', 'email2#mail.ru']
];
And then you may use the variable in your code this way: Yii::$app->params['sendToEmails'] to get the array of emails to send messages to.
Don't forget to do php init command in your project after compliting your configs.
You may see the detailed docs about environments here.
I am using yii2 advance . I want the contact form to send email to admin. but Its not working what should do? I tried in following way=>
'adminEmail' => 'admin#example.com', //wrote admin email id here
also changes
'useFileTransport' => false,
what is exact steps to make it active can any one solve this?
In your config.php you should also configure a proper transport eg for a transport based of gmail account you could use
'mailer' => [
'class' => 'yii\swiftmailer\Mailer',
.....
'useFileTransport' => false,//set this property to false to send mails to real email addresses
//comment the following array to send mail using php's mail function
//
//
/* configurazione servizio email da usare in locale (localhost sviluppo) */
'transport' => [
'class' => 'Swift_SmtpTransport',
'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',
'username' => 'your_gmail_username#gmail.com',
'password' => 'your_gmail_password',
'port' => '587',
'encryption' => 'tls',
],
I have the following smtp configuration, but I'm not sure since sometimes I face ssl timed out while sending an email.
'mailer' => [
'class' => 'yii\swiftmailer\Mailer',
'viewPath' => '#common/mail',
'useFileTransport' => true,
],
'mail' => [
'class' => 'yii\swiftmailer\Mailer',
'viewPath' => '#backend/mail',
'useFileTransport' => false,//set this property to false to send mails to real email addresses
//comment the following array to send mail using php's mail function
'transport' => [
'class' => 'Swift_SmtpTransport',
'host' => 'in-v3.mailjet.com',
'username' => 'a3027c3xxx',
'password' => 'c838779xxx',
'port' => '465',
'encryption' => 'ssl',
],
],
Then I use like this
$message = Yii::$app->mail->compose();
$message->setTo(Yii::$app->params['adminEmail'])
->setFrom(Yii::$app->params['adminEmail'])
->setTo("mymail#gmail.com")
->setSubject('Password Reset')
->setHtmlBody($this->renderAjax('//email/_konten',['hello'=>"To black" ,'konten'=>'this is konten','link'=>Yii::$app->params['baseurl'].'lupapass/chpass?&q=empty','textbutton'=>'Click this link']))
->send();
and the result is sometime I face timed out.
But if I send directly from swiftmailler class like below code it sucessfully send 100 email without any ssl timed out
$transport = \Swift_SmtpTransport::newInstance('in-v3.mailjet.com', 465)
->setUsername('myusername')
->setPassword('s3cr3t')
->setEncryption('ssl');
$mailer = \Swift_Mailer::newInstance($transport);
$message = \Swift_Message::newInstance('Password Reset')
->setFrom(array('no-reply#myweb.com' => 'My Web'))
->setTo(array('some#one.com'))
->setBody($this->renderAjax('//email/_konten',['hello'=>"To black" ,'konten'=>'this is konten','link'=>Yii::$app->params['baseurl'].'lupapass/chpass?&q=empty','textbutton'=>'Click this link']))
->setContentType("text/html")
;
$result = $mailer->send($message);
If you ask how my ssl timed out here is my question link
How to solve Swift_TransportException Connection to ssl Timed Out error?
So I start thinking is this ssl timed out because my configuration? or different sending method? from first example and second example?
in common\config\main-local.php there is a mailer => [] and mail => [] is this neccessary?
an can you please explain what is useFileTransport really?
Thanks in advance.
PS. I have already use any thirdparty and port configuration but still facing ssl timed out issue.
According to Gmail SMTP config when you are using encryption ssl or tls use port 587 instead of 465
I trying to access frontend/web from backend menu using alias
yii:yii2 advanced
webserver : XAMPP
IDE:net beans
codes I modified:
C:\xampp\htdocs\advanced\common\config\aliases.php
Yii::setAlias('fronthome', dirname(dirname(__DIR__)) . '/frontend/web/');
C:\xampp\htdocs\advanced\backend\views\layouts\main.php
if (Yii::$app->user->isGuest) {
$menuItems[] = ['label' => 'Login', 'url' => ['/site/login']];
$menuItems[] = ['label' => 'fronthome', 'url' => Yii::getAlias('#fronthome')];
but when accessing "fronthome" menu via backend menu; browser was returning the url:
http://localhost/advanced/backend/web/C:/xampp/htdocs/advanced/frontend/web
what i wanted browser to give:
http://localhost/advanced/frontend/web/
can some one please put some light... I searched but there was no elegant solution which I could find via alias.
Thanks
I got it working by making the below change
C:\xampp\htdocs\advanced\common\config\aliases.php
Yii::setAlias('fronthome', dirname(dirname(__DIR__)) . '/frontend/web/');
to
Yii::setAlias('fronthome', '../../frontend/web/');
As the links in the comments are outdated here is a snippet from the Yii2 docs:
Creating links from backend to frontend
Often it's required to create links from the backend application to the frontend application. Since the frontend application may contain its own URL manager rules you need to duplicate that for the backend application by naming it differently:
return [
'components' => [
'urlManager' => [
// here is your normal backend url manager config
],
'urlManagerFrontend' => [
// here is your frontend URL manager config
],
],
];
//After it is done, you can get an URL pointing to frontend like the following:
echo Yii::$app->urlManagerFrontend->createUrl(...);
current link to copy of relevant doc: https://yii2-framework.readthedocs.io/en/stable/guide/tutorial-advanced-app/
The way I have implemented this is to add a switch to my backend/config/bootstrap.php
switch (YII_ENV) {
case 'dev':
$frontend = 'https://my-domain.lan/';
break;
case 'test':
$frontend = 'https://my-domain.test/';
break;
case 'prod':
$frontend = 'https://my-domain.com/';
break;
}
and then in my backend/config/main.php I added the following
'urlManagerFrontend' => [
'class' => UrlManager::className(),
'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
'showScriptName' => false,
'baseUrl' => $frontend,
'rules' => [
'<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/view',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
]
],
and then where I want to use the frontend link:
echo Html::a('link',Yii::$app->urlManagerFrontend->createUrl('controller/view'))
Try using params.php
Add a key on params.php on your common/config folder
'frontendUrl' => 'http://frontendUrl/',
Then you could access it anywhere on your view by:
<?= Yii::$app->params['frontendUrl'] ?>
Hope this helps :)
