In this article, we will see laravel 9 send bulk mail using queue. Laravel queue is used for sending bulk mail with a background process, as we know if we are sending single mail laravel application it is working properly without taking much more time but if you want to send multiple emails in laravel then it will take too much time and also you can not do any operation during this time periods. Also, we will use mailtrap for sending mail.

So, let's see how to send bulk mail in laravel 9 using the queue, and laravel 9 send email using the queue.

 

In this step, we will install the laravel 9 application and after that, we will set up mail configuration in the .env file as below. here we have used mailtrap.io.

MAIL_MAILER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.mailtrap.io
MAIL_PORT=2525
MAIL_USERNAME=your_username
MAIL_PASSWORD=your_passowrd
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=TLS

QUEUE_DRIVER=database

 

 

In this step, we will create routes for sending bulk mail using the queue.

use App\Http\Controllers\SendMailController;

Route::get('send/mail', [SendMailController::class, 'send_mail'])->name('send_mail');

 

Now, we will create a 'jobs' table in the database. So, copy the below command and run it in your terminal.

php artisan queue:table

php artisan migrate​

 

In this step, we will create SendMailController and add the below code.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class SendMailController extends Controller
{
    public function send_mail(Request $request)
    {
    	$details = [
    		'subject' => 'Test Notification'
    	];
    	
        $job = (new \App\Jobs\SendQueueEmail($details))
            	->delay(now()->addSeconds(2)); 

        dispatch($job);
        echo "Mail send successfully !!";
    }
}

 

 

Now, we need to create the SendQueueEmail.php file in the app\Jobs folder using the below command in your terminal and add the below code. 

php artisan make:job SendQueueEmail

 

<?php

namespace App\Jobs;

use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\Dispatchable;
use Illuminate\Queue\InteractsWithQueue;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
use App\User;
use Mail;

class SendQueueEmail implements ShouldQueue
{
    use Dispatchable, InteractsWithQueue, Queueable, SerializesModels;
    protected $details;
    public $timeout = 7200; // 2 hours

    /**
     * Create a new job instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct($details)
    {
        $this->details = $details;
    }

    /**
     * Execute the job.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        $data = User::all();
        $input['subject'] = $this->details['subject'];

        foreach ($data as $key => $value) {
            $input['email'] = $value->email;
            $input['name'] = $value->name;
            \Mail::send('mail.Test_mail', [], function($message) use($input){
                $message->to($input['email'], $input['name'])
                    ->subject($input['subject']);
            });
        }
    }
}

 

In this step, we will create a mail blade file Test_mail.blade.php and add the below code to it.

resources/views/mail/Test_mail.blade.php

Hi <br/>
This is Test Mail.<br />
Thank you !!

And run the below command in your terminal to send manually mail.

php artisan queue:listen
