Extension for creating email templates and managing by using your site dashboard. You can create email templates with CRUD module in your backend or Gii generator.

Documentation is at docs/guide/README.md.

Installation ¶

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

$ composer require yiimaker/yii2-email-templates

or add

"yiimaker/yii2-email-templates": "~4.0"

to the require section of your composer.json.

Usage ¶

1. Create template with placeholders using your site dashboard or Gii generator

   ##### Key

   register-notification - this is unique key of this template for using in your code

   ##### Subject

   Notification from {site-name}

   In this example email subject has one placeholder {site-name}

   ##### Body

   Hello, {username}! Welcome to {site-name} :)

   Email body has two placeholders: {username} and {site-name}.

   > All keys should be wrapped by {}.

2. Now you can get this template in your code

   `php $template = Yii::$app->get('templateManager')->getTemplate('register-notification'); `

   This method returns a template model object.

3. Then you should parse this template

   `php $template->parseSubject([

   'site-name' => Yii::$app->name,
   

   ]);

   $template->parseBody([

   'username' => Yii::$app->getIdentity()->username,
   'site-name' => Yii::$app->name,
   

   ]); `

   or use another method

   `php $template->parse([

   'subject' => [
       'site-name' => Yii::$app->name,
   ],
   'body' => [
       'username' => Yii::$app->getIdentity()->username,
       'site-name' => Yii::$app->name,
   ],
   

   ]); `

   this methods replace placeholders in template with real data.

4. Now you can use data of this template in your logic

   `php Yii::$app->get('mailer')->compose()

    ->setSubject($template->subject)
    ->setHtmlBody($template->body)
    // ...
   

   `
