How send email in Laravel 5.8

Question

I am beginner in Laravel. I use Laravel 5.8 in my project. I want send email from contact form.

I have this code:

public function sendContactForm($reques         


        

Answer 1

1. first of all you have to create a mail class in app/Mail
2. create you view
3. on your sendcontactform controller call the mail class
4. dont forget to also call the mail facades: use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail;

examples:

//mail class file inside app/Mail directory

    username = $username;
            $this->message= $message;
        }

        /**
         * Build the message.
         *
         * @return $this
         */
        public function build()
        {
            return $this->view('contactform');
        }
    }
//your controller

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail;
use App\Mail\SendContact;

public function sendContactForm($request)
    {
        $this->validate($request, [
            'name' => 'required|string',
            'topic' => 'required|string',
            'email' => 'required|email',
            'message' => 'required|string',
            'captcha' => 'required|captcha',
            'acceptReg' => 'required|integer',
        ]);


        $title = $request->input('topic');
        $txt = nl2br($request->input('message'));
        $userName = $request->input('name');
        $email = $request->input('email');
        $ip = $request->getClientIp();
        $dateTime = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');

        $message = "Masz wiadomość ze strony". env('APP_NAME')."
";
        $message .= "
        Dane wiadomości: $dateTime [$ip]

        Tytuł wiadomości: $title

        Imię: $userName

        Adres email: $email

        Wiadomość: $txt
";  

         Mail::to($email)->send(new SendContact($userName, $message));
         die('mail sent!');
    }

 //your blade contactform.blade.php
@extends('app.layouts')
@section('content')
                Hello, {{ $username }}

                Your enquiry has been received


               

                
{{ $message }}


@endsection

 in your .env file define this
    MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
    MAIL_HOST="mail.example.com" //this should be from your webhost
    MAIL_PORT=465
    MAIL_USERNAME="info@example.com" //this is the email from your domain
    MAIL_PASSWORD="************"  //password of the email
    MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=info@example.com
    MAIL_FROM_NAME='Enquiry Information'
    MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl

hope this helps
