Laravel Mail Log Viewer

Overview: This Laravel package helps developers view and test emails logged in local or staging environments. By configuring the .env to log emails, this package captures and displays them in a simple interface. It allows developers to easily verify email content and troubleshoot without sending actual emails, ensuring proper functionality during development.

Installation

composer require dipesh79/laravel-mail-log-viewer

Make sure to change the email configuration to log

MAIL_MAILER=log
MAIL_HOST=127.0.0.1
MAIL_PORT=2525
MAIL_USERNAME=null
MAIL_PASSWORD=null
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS="hello@example.com"
MAIL_FROM_NAME="${APP_NAME}"

Publish the vendor file for configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Dipesh79\LaravelMailLogViewer\LaravelMailLogViewerServiceProvider"

 The configuration file looks like this.

<?php

return [
    /**
     * Route configuration
     *
     * The configuration for the route of the package.
     * This specifies the URL for the dashboard.
     *
     */
    'dashboard_url' => '/home',

    /**
     * Pagination configuration
     *
     * The configuration for the pagination for the mail log viewer.
     * This specifies the number of items per page.
     *
     */
    'pagination' => 6,

    /**
     * Primary color configuration
     *
     * The configuration for the primary color for the mail log viewer.
     * This specifies the primary color used in the UI.
     *
     */
    'primary-color' => '#ff2d20',

    /**
     * Middleware configuration
     *
     * The configuration for the middleware for the mail log viewer
     */
    'middleware' => ['web'],
];

Now you can use this url to receive emails.

http://localhost:8000/email-logs

This looks something like this

Note: Your application environment must not be in production in order to use this url.
