Attach dynamic image in mail in codeignitor
In CodeIgniter, you can attach a dynamic image to an email using the email
library. Here's an example of how you can do it:
Step 1: Create the image
First, you need to create the dynamic image. You can use a library like GD or ImageMagick to generate the image dynamically. For example, let's say you want to generate an image with a random text:
$image_path = 'path/to/image.jpg';
$image_text = 'Hello, World!';
// Create the image
$image = imagecreate(200, 100);
imagestring($image, 4, 10, 10, $image_text, imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255));
imagejpeg($image, $image_path);
imagedestroy($image);
Step 2: Attach the image to the email
Now, you need to attach the image to the email using the email
library. You can do this by creating a new instance of the CI_Email
class and using the attach()
method:
$email = &get_instance()->email;
// Set the email settings
$email->from('[email protected]', 'Your Name');
$email->to('[email protected]');
$email->subject('Dynamic Image Email');
// Attach the image
$image_data = file_get_contents($image_path);
$email->attach($image_path, 'image/jpeg', 'dynamic_image.jpg', $image_data);
// Send the email
$email->send();
In this example, we're using the file_get_contents()
function to read the contents of the image file and passing it to the attach()
method along with the image path, MIME type, and file name.
Note: Make sure to replace the path/to/image.jpg
with the actual path to your image file.
That's it! With these steps, you should be able to attach a dynamic image to an email using CodeIgniter.
