This is a guide to help you make the switch when the SparkPost PHP library changes major versions.
The composer package name has changed from sparkpost/php-sparkpost
to sparkpost/sparkpost
We replaced the idea of 'wrapping' API resources with a simple request
function. To see it in action, check out this example.
Transmission endpoints are now under $sparky->transmissions
instead of $sparky->transmission
to map more directly to the API docs.
- We no longer map parameters to the API - we simplified. Instead custom mapping, now set the payload to match the API docs.
- The exceptions to the previous statement are
cc
andbcc
. They are helpers to make it easier to add cc and bcc recipients. Example
Ivory Http Adapter was deprecated in favor of HTTPlug.
We addeded in support for asynchronous calls (assuming your client supports it).
try {
$sparky->setOptions([ 'async' => false ]);
// Build your email and send it!
$results = $sparky->transmissions->post([
'content'=>[
'from'=>[
'name' => 'From Envelope',
'email' => 'from@sparkpostbox.com>'
],
'subject'=>'First Mailing From PHP',
'html'=>'<html><body><h1>Congratulations, {{name}}!</h1><p>You just sent your very first mailing!</p></body></html>',
'text'=>'Congratulations, {{name}}!! You just sent your very first mailing!',
],
'substitution_data'=>['name'=>'YOUR FIRST NAME'],
'recipients'=>[
[
'address'=>[
'name'=>'YOUR FULL NAME',
'email'=>'YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS'
]
]
]
]);
echo 'Woohoo! You just sent your first mailing!';
} catch (\Exception $err) {
echo 'Whoops! Something went wrong';
var_dump($err);
}
try {
// Build your email and send it!
$results = $sparky->transmission->send([
'from'=>[
'name' => 'From Envelope',
'email' => 'from@sparkpostbox.com>'
],
'html'=>'<html><body><h1>Congratulations, {{name}}!</h1><p>You just sent your very first mailing!</p></body></html>',
'text'=>'Congratulations, {{name}}!! You just sent your very first mailing!',
'substitutionData'=>['name'=>'YOUR FIRST NAME'],
'subject'=>'First Mailing From PHP',
'recipients'=>[
[
'address'=>[
'name'=>'YOUR FULL NAME',
'email'=>'YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS'
]
]
]
]);
echo 'Woohoo! You just sent your first mailing!';
} catch (\Exception $err) {
echo 'Whoops! Something went wrong';
var_dump($err);
