README

Laravel integration for the Emailit Email API. Provides a mail transport, a Facade, and full access to the Emailit PHP SDK.

Requirements

• PHP 8.1+
• Laravel 10, 11, or 12

Installation

composer require emailit/emailit-laravel

The package auto-discovers its service provider — no manual registration needed.

Configuration

Add your API key to .env:

EMAILIT_API_KEY=your_api_key

Set Emailit as your mail transport in .env:

MAIL_MAILER=emailit

Add the emailit mailer to your config/mail.php mailers array:

'mailers' => [
    // ...

    'emailit' => [
        'transport' => 'emailit',
    ],
],

Publish Config (optional)

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=emailit-config

This publishes config/emailit.php where you can customize the API base URL if needed.

Usage

Using Laravel Mail (recommended)

Once configured as your mail transport, all of Laravel's mail features work out of the box:

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

Mail::to('user@example.com')->send(new WelcomeEmail($user));

With a Mailable:

namespace App\Mail;

use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Mail\Mailable;
use Illuminate\Mail\Mailables\Content;
use Illuminate\Mail\Mailables\Envelope;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;

class WelcomeEmail extends Mailable
{
    use Queueable, SerializesModels;

    public function __construct(
        public readonly User $user,
    ) {}

    public function envelope(): Envelope
    {
        return new Envelope(
            subject: 'Welcome to Our App',
        );
    }

    public function content(): Content
    {
        return new Content(
            view: 'emails.welcome',
        );
    }
}

Using the Facade

The Emailit facade gives you direct access to the full Emailit PHP SDK:

use Emailit\Laravel\Facades\Emailit;

// Send an email via the API directly
$email = Emailit::emails()->send([
    'from'    => 'hello@yourdomain.com',
    'to'      => ['user@example.com'],
    'subject' => 'Hello from Emailit',
    'html'    => '<h1>Welcome!</h1>',
]);

echo $email->id;
echo $email->status;

Send with a Template

use Emailit\Laravel\Facades\Emailit;

$email = Emailit::emails()->send([
    'from'      => 'hello@yourdomain.com',
    'to'        => 'user@example.com',
    'template'  => 'welcome_email',
    'variables' => [
        'name'    => 'John Doe',
        'company' => 'Acme Inc',
    ],
]);

Manage Domains

use Emailit\Laravel\Facades\Emailit;

$domain = Emailit::domains()->create(['name' => 'example.com']);
$domains = Emailit::domains()->list();

Manage Contacts

use Emailit\Laravel\Facades\Emailit;

$contact = Emailit::contacts()->create([
    'email' => 'user@example.com',
    'first_name' => 'John',
]);

$contacts = Emailit::contacts()->list();

Verify Email Addresses

use Emailit\Laravel\Facades\Emailit;

$result = Emailit::emailVerifications()->verify([
    'email' => 'test@example.com',
]);

echo $result->status; // valid
echo $result->risk;   // low

All Available Services

The Facade exposes every service from the PHP SDK:

Error Handling

use Emailit\Exceptions\AuthenticationException;
use Emailit\Exceptions\RateLimitException;
use Emailit\Exceptions\ApiErrorException;
use Emailit\Laravel\Facades\Emailit;

try {
    Emailit::emails()->send([...]);
} catch (AuthenticationException $e) {
    // Invalid API key (401)
} catch (RateLimitException $e) {
    // Too many requests (429)
} catch (ApiErrorException $e) {
    // Any other API error
    echo $e->getHttpStatus();
}

Dependency Injection

You can also inject the client directly instead of using the Facade:

use Emailit\EmailitClient;

class EmailController extends Controller
{
    public function send(EmailitClient $emailit)
    {
        $email = $emailit->emails()->send([
            'from'    => 'hello@yourdomain.com',
            'to'      => ['user@example.com'],
            'subject' => 'Hello',
            'html'    => '<p>Hi there!</p>',
        ]);

        return response()->json(['id' => $email->id]);
    }
}
