 1 | ## Laravel Mailer Class
 2 | 
 3 | A simple Laravel mailer class
 4 | 
 5 | You can use this as you wish, just a simple class to help cleanup code and send mail.
 6 | 
 7 | The best way to use is either type-hint from your method:
 8 | 
 9 | ```php
10 | public function store(AppMailer $mailer)
11 | {
12 |   // Do some stuff
13 |   // pass the user object through, do whatever you want here
14 |   
15 |   // Send email
16 |   $mailer->sendEmailConfirmationTo($user);
17 |   return back(); // Whatever you like
18 | }
19 | ````
20 | 
21 | or via your constructor method like so and I store in ````app/Mailers````
22 | 
23 | ```php
24 | use App\Mailers\AppMailer;
25 | 
26 |  /**
27 |  * @var AppMailer
28 |  */
29 | private $mailer;
30 | 
31 | /**
32 |  * constructor.
33 |  * @param AppMailer $mailer
34 |  */
35 | public function __construct(AppMailer $mailer)
36 | {
37 |     $this->mailer = $mailer;
38 | }
39 | 
40 | ````
41 | 
42 | Then just refer to ````$this->mailer->sendEmailConfirmationTo()```` or whatever methods you have within the mailer class.
43 |
