here is mail controller class
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\MassMail;
use App\Contact;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Mail;
class MassMailController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
$mails = MassMail::orderBy('date_sent', 'DESC')->get();
return view('mail.mass.index')->with('mails', $mails);
}
public function show($id)
{
$mail = MassMail::findOrFail($id);
return view('mail.mass.show')->with('mail', $mail);
}
public function create()
{
$movies = Auth::user()->movies()->lists('title', 'id');
return view('mail.mass.create')->with('movies', $movies);
}
public function send(Requests\EmailTemplateRequest $request)
{
$emails = Contact::whereNotNull('email')->lists('email')->toArray();
Mail::send(['text' => 'emails.plain'], ['text' => $request->message], function ($message) use ($request, $emails) {
$message->from('info@someone.com', $request->sender);
$message->subject($request->subject);
$message->to($emails);
});
//send
$mail = new MassMail($request->all());
$mail->date_sent = \Carbon\Carbon::now();
$mail->recipent_count = count($emails);
\Auth::user()->massMail()->save($mail);
$contacts = Contact::whereNotNull('email')->lists('id')->toArray();
foreach($contacts as $contact){
$mail->recipents()->attach($contact);
}
return redirect('mail/mass');
}
}
There is a requirement that multiple receivers won't see other receivers. Like blind copy. How to modify it?
Thanks.
There is also mass mail class, which looks like this:
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class MassMail extends Model
{
/**
* The table associated with the model.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $table = 'mass_mails';
protected $fillable = [
'sender',
'subject',
'message',
'movie_id'
];
public $timestamps = false;
public function recipents()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Contact', 'contact_mass_mail_pivot', 'mass_mail_id', 'contact_id');
}
}
Any ideas?
