How to create global rules for when to send an email

Currently in our system I send emails by using the laravel mailables like so

Mail::to($user)->send(new AccountCreation($user))

Mail::to($user)->send(new AccountCreation($user))

This works as intended however in our system we have some complex global rules for when to send an email to a person that should be used everywhere, for example:

if ($user->isActive)
Mail::to($user)->send(new AccountCreation($user));



I do not want to check the user every time and would rather the mailable logic handle this.

Is there a clean way to handle global rules for when to send an email?

Make a mail() function in the User model and insert your global rules for all users. So instead of calling:

Mail::to($user)->send(new AccountCreation($user))


You'll be calling:

$user->mail(new AccountCreation($user))


You can make your mail function as follows:

class User extends Model
(...)
public function mail(Mailer $mailer)
if ($this->isActive)
Mail::to($this)->send($mailer);


(...)



MailServiceProvider
