A few hours ago I tagged version 1.0.0 of a my new package: laravel-newsletter. It provides a very easy way to interact with email marketing services. Or maybe I should simply say MailChimp, as it is currently the only supported supported service.
After you install the package (un)subscribing an e-mail is as easy as
Newsletter::subscribe('obi-wan.kenobi@stewjon.com')
Newsletter::unsubscribe('palpatine@empire.com')
There are a few more methods provided and you can also access the underlying MailChimp API. Read all about it in the readme of the package.
I was going to add more functionality but the recent release of the new version of MailChimp's API made me rethink my plan. As soon as there is a php wrapper available for the new version of API I'll put some more work in the package.
You can follow me on these platforms:
On all these platforms, regularly share programming tips, and what I myself have learned in ongoing projects.
Every month I send out a newsletter containing lots of interesting stuff for the modern PHP developer.
Expect quick tips & tricks, interesting tutorials, opinions and packages. Because I work with Laravel every day there is an emphasis on that framework.
Rest assured that I will only use your email address to send you the newsletter and will not use it for any other purposes.
