PHP/SwiftMailer - send multiple attachments in one email

Question

spetruska 0 Newbie Poster

10 Years Ago

I'm trying to send MULTIPLE ATTACHMENTS in a single e-mail from a FreeBSD, PHP, MySql, SwiftMailer configuration. I display a form, listing all PDF Files with checkboxes, file names, and file location (hidden) for a client, Then, when <SUBMIT> is pressed, I am trying to format and send an e-mail by looping through the selected files and attaching them to SwiftMailer message instance. E-Mail "without" attachments works, but can't get the e-mail with attachments to work...

Any assistance will be appreciated. If you can help, I'll send the code along or include in a follow-up Post.

You can do that throught the attach() method: http://swiftmailer.org/docs/messages.html#attaching-files
If you still don't solve the problem post an example of the code here, bye.

Hello! I checked rapidly your code, I didn't tested but it seems fine, just few notes:

At line 78 you wrote:

$file = "Swift_Attachment::fromPath('" . $path . "')->setFilename=('" . $name . "', 'application/pdf'),";

fromPath() method supports two arguments (path and mime and the second is optional), while setFilename() supports only one argument, so the above needs to be changed to:

$file = "Swift_Attachment::fromPath('" . $path . "', 'application/pdf')->setFilename('" . $name . "')";

Note also that I've removed = character from setFilename and the comma at the end of the string. The main problem is that you're sending this as string but you have to feed the output, to the attach() method, not the command to execute, so remove the double quotes from the line:

$file = Swift_Attachment::fromPath('" . $path . "', 'application/pdf')->setFilename('" . $name . "');

This can also be rewritten as:

$file = Swift_Attachment::fromPath($path, 'application/pdf')->setFilename($name);

You can avoid array_push and use directly this solution:

$attachment[] = Swift_Attachment::fromPath($path, 'application/pdf')->setFilename($name);

Last note, the attach method doesn't seem to support arrays as arguments, so you should loop the above array as:

foreach($attachment as $attach)
{
    $message->attach($attach);
}

Hope it helps.

Line 222. Full block in your code starts at line 200:

$message = Swift_Message::newInstance()
  ->setContentType("text/html")
    // Give the message a subject
  ->setSubject($subject)
    // Give it a body
  ->setBody($body)
    // Set the From address with an associative array
  ->setFrom($gmail_id)
    // Set the Sender address with an associative array
  ->setSender($gmail_id)
    // Set the To addresses with an associative array
  ->setTo($to)
    // Set the cc addresses with an associative array
  ->setcc($cc)
    // Set the Bcc addresses with an associative array
  ->setBcc($bcc);

foreach($attachment as $attach)
{
    $message->attach($attach); // end Message create  
}

If this doesn't help, please, post the errors codes, it will be easier for us to help you.

OK, thanks... I'm an OLD guy, learning PHP from scratch, have made some progress, but, still revert back to the old COBOL days.

Code follows, area labelled "BEGIN - Create the Transport" is where message is formatted for sending

I got a little further into the php with the changes. Except, I'm not sure exactly (line #) where to put the

foreach($attachment as $attach)
{
$message->attach($attach);
}

Thanks...

OK, made suggested changes and tried again.
Program displayed the following when processing lines 75 thru 92.

ID = 1
path = /usr/local/www/apache22/data/Uploads/BLG-BLGFF-5005-52684-25676.pdf
name = TES
ID = 5
path = /usr/local/www/apache22/data/Uploads/BLG-BLG-5005-34505-15820.pdf

ID = 6
path = /usr/local/www/apache22/data/Uploads/BLG-BLG-5005-35107-15963.pdf

HERE.... Line 90

Looks like line 228 throws the following errors, which I read to say
the file is NOT found where SwiftMailer wants it to be???

I see that the values are set by your form:

$path_name = $_POST['selectloc'];
$file_name = $_POST['selectname'];

Are you sure the path of the file is correct? Consider that in linux paths are case sensitive, so Uploads and uploads are different for the system. You can verify the paths with file_exists().

Also remove ; from line 226.
