WEBVTT NOTE Created by CaptionSync from Automatic Sync Technologies www.automaticsync.com 00:00:01.076 --> 00:00:04.836 align:middle Alrighty, it's finally time send real emails in production! 00:00:05.576 --> 00:00:09.396 align:middle Mailer comes with various ways to send emails, called "transports". 00:00:09.756 --> 00:00:13.266 align:middle This smtp one is what we're using for our Mailtrap testing. 00:00:13.766 --> 00:00:16.676 align:middle We could set up our own SMTP server to send emails... 00:00:16.676 --> 00:00:19.666 align:middle but... that's complex, and you need to do a lot of things 00:00:19.666 --> 00:00:21.966 align:middle to make sure your emails don't get marked as spam. 00:00:22.476 --> 00:00:27.426 align:middle Boo. I highly, highly recommend using a 3rd-party email service. 00:00:27.866 --> 00:00:31.766 align:middle These handle all these complexities for you and Mailer provides bridges 00:00:31.766 --> 00:00:33.926 align:middle to many of these to make setup a breeze. 00:00:34.556 --> 00:00:39.526 align:middle We're using Mailtrap for testing but Mailtrap also has production sending capabilities! 00:00:39.856 --> 00:00:41.096 align:middle Fantabulous! 00:00:41.486 --> 00:00:43.096 align:middle It even has an official bridge! 00:00:43.656 --> 00:00:48.946 align:middle At your terminal, install it with: composer require symfony/mailtrap-mailer 00:00:51.136 --> 00:00:53.536 align:middle After this is installed, check your IDE. 00:00:54.186 --> 00:00:58.066 align:middle In .env, the recipe added some MAILER_DSN stubs. 00:00:58.436 --> 00:01:02.836 align:middle We can get the real DSN values from Mailtrap, but first, we need to do some setup. 00:01:03.346 --> 00:01:06.366 align:middle Over in Mailtrap, we need to set up a "sending domain". 00:01:06.796 --> 00:01:12.126 align:middle This configures a domain you own to allow Mailtrap to properly send emails on its behalf. 00:01:12.556 --> 00:01:17.266 align:middle Our lawyers are still negotiating the purchase of universal-travel.com, so for now, 00:01:17.396 --> 00:01:20.836 align:middle I'm using a personal domain I own: zenstruck.com. 00:01:21.306 --> 00:01:22.536 align:middle Add your domain here. 00:01:23.036 --> 00:01:26.256 align:middle Once added, you'll be on this "Domain Verification" page. 00:01:26.616 --> 00:01:29.366 align:middle This is super important but Mailtrap makes it easy. 00:01:29.716 --> 00:01:32.866 align:middle Just follow the instructions until you get this green checkmark. 00:01:33.456 --> 00:01:37.496 align:middle Basically, you'll need to add a bunch of specific DNS records to your domain. 00:01:38.036 --> 00:01:43.966 align:middle DKIM, which verifies emails sent from your domain, and SPF, which authorizes Mailtrap 00:01:43.966 --> 00:01:47.606 align:middle to send emails on your domain's behalf are the most important. 00:01:48.266 --> 00:01:51.066 align:middle Mailtrap provides great documentation on these if you want 00:01:51.066 --> 00:01:53.236 align:middle to dig deeper on how exactly these work. 00:01:53.616 --> 00:01:55.176 align:middle But basically, we're telling the world 00:01:55.176 --> 00:01:58.046 align:middle that Mailtrap is allowed to send emails on our behalf. 00:01:58.766 --> 00:02:02.906 align:middle Once you have the green checkmark, click "Integrations" then "Integrate" 00:02:03.006 --> 00:02:05.206 align:middle under the "Transaction Stream" section. 00:02:05.736 --> 00:02:08.896 align:middle We can now decide between using SMTP or API. 00:02:09.666 --> 00:02:11.896 align:middle I'll use the API, but either works. 00:02:12.346 --> 00:02:18.306 align:middle And hey! This looks familiar: like with Mailtrap testing, choose PHP, then Symfony. 00:02:18.966 --> 00:02:20.686 align:middle This is the MAILER_DSN we need! 00:02:21.146 --> 00:02:22.906 align:middle Copy it and jump over to your editor. 00:02:23.546 --> 00:02:28.876 align:middle This is a sensitive environment variable, so add it to .env.local to avoid committing it to git. 00:02:29.636 --> 00:02:33.096 align:middle Comment out the Mailtrap testing DSN and paste below. 00:02:33.656 --> 00:02:36.296 align:middle I'll remove this comment because we like to keep life tidy. 00:02:37.006 --> 00:02:37.766 align:middle Almost ready! 00:02:38.206 --> 00:02:42.806 align:middle Remember, we can only send emails in production from the domain we configured. 00:02:43.196 --> 00:02:45.266 align:middle In my case, zenstruck.com. 00:02:45.836 --> 00:02:51.416 align:middle Open config/services.yaml and update the global_from_email to your domain. 00:02:54.186 --> 00:02:55.336 align:middle Let's see if this works! 00:02:55.746 --> 00:02:57.256 align:middle In your app, book a trip. 00:02:57.786 --> 00:03:00.126 align:middle This time use a real email address. 00:03:00.606 --> 00:03:05.926 align:middle I'll set the name to Kevin and I'll use my personal email: kevin@symfonycasts.com. 00:03:06.486 --> 00:03:11.336 align:middle As much as I love you and space travel, put your own email here to avoid spamming me. 00:03:12.036 --> 00:03:13.356 align:middle Choose a date and book! 00:03:15.846 --> 00:03:18.766 align:middle We're on the booking confirmation page, that's a good sign! 00:03:19.296 --> 00:03:21.036 align:middle Now, check your personal email. 00:03:21.506 --> 00:03:22.836 align:middle I'll go to mine and wait... 00:03:23.426 --> 00:03:24.116 align:middle refresh... 00:03:24.786 --> 00:03:25.466 align:middle here it is! 00:03:25.966 --> 00:03:28.736 align:middle If I click it, this is exactly what we expect! 00:03:29.196 --> 00:03:31.766 align:middle The image, attachment, everything is here! 00:03:32.456 --> 00:03:36.626 align:middle Next, let's see how we can track sent emails with Mailtrap plus add tags 00:03:36.626 --> 00:03:39.136 align:middle and metadata to improve that tracking!
