Send email from assets file

[Perry]

Hello,

is it possible to access $kirby->email() from a file located in /assets/php/ to send an email ?

greetings perry

    <?php

	$post = file_get_contents('php://input');

	$t = json_decode($post, true);

	if ($t["vorname"] == "" || $t["name"] == "" || $t["email"] == "" || $t["subject"] == "") :
		echo "error-1";
		return false;
	endif;

	// Validate email
	if (filter_var($t["email"], FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) :

		echo "success";

	else :
		echo "error-2";
	endif;
	
	try {
		$kirby->email([
			'from' => 'welcome@supercompany.com',
			'replyTo' => 'no-reply@supercompany.com',
			'to' => 'st@gmail.com',
			'cc' => 'st@gmail.com',
			'subject' => "betreff",
			'body' => 'It\'s great to have you with us',
		]);
	} catch (Exception $error) {
		echo "error-3";
	}

	?>

See here how to require Kirby in your scripts: How to migrate users | Kirby CMS

$kirby->email

I don’t quite understand why I should migrate an account. I don’t want to write an email to a user, I want to send the data from a contact form. when I use the $kirby->email() part in a template it works, but not when I run it in an assets file.

It was just an example how to include kirby into your script so that you can use Kirby’s methods.

[Perry]

is this part enough to make the kirby() available in the asset as well?

require __DIR__ . '/kirby/bootstrap.php';
$kirby = new Kirby;

[Perry]

is there a cookbook where the procedure is described in detail?

Yes, you only have to require that file, no need for a recipe, I think.

[Perry]

does this also work if I also call the assets file with JS?

this part creates a http status: 500
$kirby = new Kirby;

send form data

    let sendData = function() {

        let data = {
            "vorname": document.getElementById("vorname").value,
            "name": document.getElementById("name").value,
            "email": document.getElementById("email").value,
            "tel": document.getElementById("tel").value,
            "subject": document.getElementById("subject").value,
            "message": document.getElementById("message").value,
        }



        fetch("/assets/php/contact-form-sender.php", {
                method: "POST",
                headers: {
                    'Accept': 'application/json, text/plain, */*',
                    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
                },
                body: JSON.stringify(data)
            })

            .then((result) => {
                if (result.status != 200) {
                    console.log(result)
                    //throw new Error("Bad Server Response");
                }
                return result.text();
            })

            .then((response) => {
                console.log(response);
            })

            .catch((error) => {
                console.log(error);
            });

        return false;
    }


    document.getElementById("submit-button").addEventListener("click", function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        sendData()
    })

process data

    <?php

	require __DIR__ . '/kirby/bootstrap.php';
