SwiftMandrill provides simple alternative when you need to send an email with your iOS app. :question: Why?
Sometimes, there is the need to setup a simple email form in your iOS app, or trigger an email after an action, without having to setup your own service for that, sometimes you don't want to use the MailComposeViewController
or use a SMTP
library.
This provide a simple alternative when you need to send an email with your iOS app.
Mandrill provides a simple reliable API for transactional emails. You will need to have a Mandrill
account to use the client and a API
key.
Get SwiftMandrill
on CocoaPods, just add pod 'SwiftMandrill'
to your Podfile.
Usage is very simple
let api = MandrillAPI(ApiKey: "YourApiKey")
api.sendEmail(from: "[email protected]",
fromName:"Chris Jimenez",
to: "[email protected]",
subject: "My subject",
html: "<b>This is a Test</b>",
text: "This is a test"){ mandrillResult in
if mandrillResult.success {
print("Email was sent!")
}
}
You can also send an email to several recipients by passing an array
let api = MandrillAPI(ApiKey: "YourApiKey")
api.sendEmail(from: "[email protected]",
fromName:"Chris Jimenez",
to: ["[email protected]","[email protected]"],
subject: "My subject",
html: "<b>This is a Test</b>",
text: "This is a test"){ mandrillResult in
if mandrillResult.success {
print("Email was sent!")
}
}
If inline parameters is not your thing you can also provide a MandrillEmail
object and send that one
let api = MandrillAPI(ApiKey: "YourApiKey")
let email = MandrillEmail()
email.from = "[email protected]"
email.fromName= "Chris Jimenez"
email.to = "[email protected]"
email.subject = "this is a test"
email.html = "<b><Test/b>"
email.text = "Test"
api.sendEmail(withEmail: email){ mandrillResult in
if mandrillResult.success {
print("Email was sent!"")
}
}

Most of the API is still not cover, stuff like tracking, templates, search, etc will be a nice addition.
