Infinite Script

Yesterday, I spent several hours solving this problem.

In Laravel Framework, you can do as following:

Mail::send('mails.reset', $data, function($message) use ($email) {
    $message->from('noreply@infinitescript.com', 'The Home of Class8')->subject('Reset Your Password');
    $message->to($email);
});

Quite easy, isn't it? However, it's quite tedious using Zend Framework.

Step 1: Create Email Template

First of all, you need to create a template for mail in views folder, such as /view/mails/reset.phtml.

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td style="padding:15px 15px 0 15px;background:#fff;border-radius:4px 4px 0 0">
                <div>
                    <img src="http://lab.haozhexie.com/CourseOcean/img/logo.png" alt="CourseOcean" height="85" width="290">
                </div>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td style="padding:15px; background:#fff; border-radius:0 0 4px 4px;font-size:12px">
                We received a request to reset the password for your account, <?=$this->username?>.<br><br>
                If you made this request, click the link below. If you didn't make this request, you can ignore this email.<br><br>
                <a href="http://lab.haozhexie.com/CourseOcean/accounts/resetPassword?email=<?=$this->email?>&keycode=<?=$this->keycode?>" target="_blank"style="color: #005399;text-decoration: none;">http://lab.haozhexie.com/CourseOcean/accounts/resetPassword?email=<?=$this->email?>&keycode=<?=$this->keycode?></a><br><br>
                Yours, <br>
                CourseOcean.<br><br>
                <div style="border-top:3px solid #eee;color:#999;font-size:11px;line-height:1.2">
                    <br>Powered by <a href="http://lab.haozhexie.com/CourseOcean/" target="_blank" style="color: #005399;text-decoration: none;">CourseOcean</a>. All rights reserved.<br>
                </div>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

Step 2: Complete Sending Email Function

private function sendResetPasswordEmail($username, $email) {
    $keycode    = $this->generateRandomString(32);
    $view       = new \Zend\View\Renderer\PhpRenderer();
    $resolver   = new \Zend\View\Resolver\TemplateMapResolver();
    $resolver->setMap(array(
        'mailTemplate' => __DIR__ . '/../../../view/mails/reset.phtml'
    ));
    $view->setResolver($resolver);

    $viewModel  = new ViewModel();
    $viewModel->setTemplate('mailTemplate')->setVariables(array(
        'username'  => $username,
        'email'     => $email,
        'keycode'   => $keycode,
    ));

    $bodyPart = new \Zend\Mime\Message();
    $bodyMessage    = new \Zend\Mime\Part($view->render($viewModel));
    $bodyMessage->type = 'text/html';
    $bodyPart->setParts(array($bodyMessage));

    $message        = new \Zend\Mail\Message();
    $message->addFrom('noreply@infinitescript.com', 'CourseOcean')
            ->addTo($email)
            ->setSubject('Reset Your Password')
            ->setBody($bodyPart)
            ->setEncoding('UTF-8');
    $transport  = new \Zend\Mail\Transport\Sendmail();
    $transport->send($message);
}
