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);


(...)





Hi Andre. Thanks for your answer however looking at the link I commented it seems overwriting the the MailServiceProvider is a more elegant way to handle this problem.

MailServiceProvider





Hi @hdifen I don't agree with you. As a rule that only addresses the User model, it should be inside it.
