? Get Started

Using SwiftyEmail in Production Code

Just import SwiftyEmail:

import SwiftyEmail

Add the LSApplicationQueriesSchemes key to your Info.plist. It’s an array with four strings.

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
	<string>googlegmail</string>
	<string>ms-outlook</string>
	<string>readdle-spark</string>
	<string>ymail</string>
</array>

It should look like this:

Okay! ? Now, you can use it as you please. Use it like this:

SwiftyEmail.shared.sendEmail(subject: "Your order has been processed!",
                             body: "This is just an example for an e-mail body.",
                             recipient: "johndoe@gmail.com") { result in
    switch result {
    case .success(let emailWasSent):
        print("The viewController was presented and the email \(emailWasSent)")
    case .failure(let error):
        print(error.localizedDescription)
    }
}

Then, the user’s e-mail app is going to be called if the result is a success, with all the data provided.

Always remember that the e-mail has a subject, a body and a recipient, as well as the result for presenting the e-mail app.
