php-swiftmailerHow to use Swiftmailer transport?

Swiftmailer transport is a library used to send emails from PHP applications. It is easy to use and provides a wide range of features.

To use Swiftmailer transport, you need to create a Swift_Transport instance and pass it to the Swift_Mailer constructor.

// Create the Transport
$transport = (new Swift_SmtpTransport('smtp.example.org', 25))
  ->setUsername('your username')
  ->setPassword('your password')
;

// Create the Mailer using your created Transport
$mailer = new Swift_Mailer($transport);

The code above creates a Swift_SmtpTransport instance and passes it to the Swift_Mailer constructor. The Swift_SmtpTransport class is used to send emails via SMTP.

To send an email, you need to create a Swift_Message instance and pass it to the send() method of the Swift_Mailer instance.

// Create a message
$message = (new Swift_Message('Wonderful Subject'))
  ->setFrom(['[email protected]' => 'John Doe'])
  ->setTo(['[email protected]', '[email protected]' => 'A name'])
  ->setBody('Here is the message itself')
  ;

// Send the message
$result = $mailer->send($message);

The code above creates a Swift_Message instance and passes it to the send() method of the Swift_Mailer instance. The send() method returns the number of successful recipients.
