Usage

To use this package to validate the email coming from form submission, you will just need to include '|disposable'in Validator function in app\Http\Controllers\Auth\RegisterController.php . A step by step tutorial is included here.

To print the validation result on single email, you will first need to include this line on top of your file: use MailboxValidatorLaravel\Validation\ValidateEmail; . Then, initialite the ValidateEmail class by using this line: $validate = new ValidateEmail();. Lastly, just call $validate->GetValidateDisposable('email_tobe_validate','your_api_key'); into a variable and print out the variable. For example, your controller file might be looks like this:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use MailboxValidatorLaravel\Validation\ValidateEmail;

class ViewValidateResultController extends Controller
{
	public function print_result(){
		$validate = new ValidateEmail();
		$validate_result = $validate->GetValidateDisposable('email_tobe_validate','your_api_key');
		var_dump($validate_result);
	}
}
