Gmail API for Laravel 9
You need to create an application in the Google Console. Guidance here.
if you need Laravel 5 compatibility please use version 2.0.x
.
if you need Laravel 6 compatibility please use version 3.0.x
.
if you need Laravel 7 compatibility please use version 4.0.x
.
if you need Laravel 8 compatibility please use version 5.0.x
.
- PHP ^8.0
- Laravel 9
Add dacastro4/laravel-gmail to composer.json.
"dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^6.1"
Run composer update to pull down the latest version.
Or run
composer require dacastro4/laravel-gmail
Now open up config/app.php
and add the service provider to your providers array.
'providers' => [
Dacastro4\LaravelGmail\LaravelGmailServiceProvider::class,
]
Now add the alias.
'aliases' => [
'LaravelGmail' => Dacastro4\LaravelGmail\Facade\LaravelGmail::class,
]
For laravel >=5.5 that's all. This package supports Laravel new Package Discovery.
For <= PHP 7.4 compatibility use version v5.0
Requires Laravel 9 and you have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^9.0"
Please, follow Upgrading To 9.0 From 8.x Guide
Requires Laravel 8 and you have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^8.0"
Please, follow Upgrading To 8.0 From 7.x Guide
Requires Laravel 7 and you have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^7.0"
Please, follow Upgrading To 7.0 From 6.x Guide
Requires Laravel 6 and you only have to change the dependency to "laravel/laravel": "^6.0"
The only changed made was the multi credentials feature.
- Change your composer.json from
"dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^1.0"
to"dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^2.0"
I had to change version because of a typo and that might break apps calling those attributes.
All variable with the word "threat" was change to "thread" (yeah, I know.. sorry) Ex:
Mail Class
$threatId
=> $threadId
Replyable Class
$mail->setReplyThreat()
=> $mail->setReplyThread()
and so on.
The only changed made was the multi credentials feature.
- Change your composer.json from
"dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^0.6"
to"dacastro4/laravel-gmail": "^1.0"
If you don't want the multi user credentials, you don't have to do anything else, if you do, you're going to have to login again to create a new credentials file per user.
You only have to set the following variables on your .env
file and you'll be on your way:
GOOGLE_PROJECT_ID=
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=
GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI=
GOOGLE_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_CREDENTIALS
GOOGLE_ALLOW_JSON_ENCRYPT
To modify the scopes and the credentials file name, just run:
Run php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Dacastro4\LaravelGmail\LaravelGmailServiceProvider"
and modify the config file config/gmail.php
.
To allow multi user credentials change allow_multiple_credentials
to true
in your config file or set the .env variable
GOOGLE_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_CREDENTIALS
to true if you're not using the config file.
To allow encryption for json files change allow_json_encrypt
to true
in your config file or set the .env variable
GOOGLE_ALLOW_JSON_ENCRYPT
to true if you're not using the config file.
- all (this one doesn't exists on Gmail Scopes, I added it.)
- compose
- insert
- labels
- metadata
- modify
- readonly
- send
- settings_basic
- settings_sharing
Note: To change the scopes, users have to logout and login again.
If for some reason you need to add additional scopes.
Add additional scopes in URL Style in config/gmail.php
'additional_scopes' => [
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive',
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/documents',
'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets'
],
<body>
<h1>{{ LaravelGmail::user() }}</h1>
@if(LaravelGmail::check())
<a href="{{ url('oauth/gmail/logout') }}">logout</a>
@else
<a href="{{ url('oauth/gmail') }}">login</a>
@endif
</body>
Route::get('/oauth/gmail', function (){
return LaravelGmail::redirect();
});
Route::get('/oauth/gmail/callback', function (){
LaravelGmail::makeToken();
return redirect()->to('/');
});
Route::get('/oauth/gmail/logout', function (){
LaravelGmail::logout(); //It returns exception if fails
return redirect()->to('/');
});
Then if in your controller or wherever you want to do your logic, you do something like:
$messages = LaravelGmail::message()->subject('test')->unread()->preload()->all();
foreach ( $messages as $message ) {
$body = $message->getHtmlBody();
$subject = $message->getSubject();
}
Note that if you don't preload the messages you have to do something like:
$body = $message->load()->getSubject();
and after that you don't have to call it again.
Use $messages->hasNextPage()
to check whether next page is available.
Use $messages->next()
to get the next page results, which uses the same parameters (result per page, filters, etc.) when you loaded the first page.
Use $messages->getPageToken()
to get the unique identifier for the next page token. This is useful in creating a unique idendifier when storing the result in cache.
Generally speaking, it is a bad practice to use API for pagination. It is slow and costly. Therefore, it is recommended to retrieve the cached result moving between pages and only flush the cache when have to.
LaravelGmail::getAuthUrl
Gets the URL to auth the user.
LaravelGmail::redirect
You can use this as a direct method <a href="{{ LaravelGmail::redirect() }}">Login</a>
LaravelGmail::makeToken()
Set and Save AccessToken in json file (useful in the callback)
LaravelGmail::logout
Logs out the user
LaravelGmail::check
Checks if the user is logged in
LaravelGmail::setUserId($account_id)->makeToken()
Set and Save AccessToken for $account_id (added v5.1.2)

message()->hasAttachment()
message()->subject($subject)
->after($date)
