pod 'SupportEmail', '~> 4.0'

Carthage

You can also install with Carthage. To do so, add the following to your Cartfile:

github "schayes04/SupportEmail"

Usage

Due to how MFMailComposeViewController works, you must retain a reference to SupportEmail outside of where you are sending the email.

var supportEmail: SupportEmail?

Using SupportEmail is simple and has just one method. send will allow you to craft the email and handle the end result:

supportEmail = SupportEmail()
supportEmail.send(to: ["support@test.com"], subject: "Support", from: self) { result, error in
    switch result {
    case .cancelled:
        print("Message cancelled")
    case .failed:
        print("Message failed")
    case .saved:
        print("Message saved")
    case .sent:
        print("Message sent")
    }
}

The send function takes 3 arguments:

  • An array of email address the support email should be sent to
  • The subject of the support email
  • The view controller the MFMailComposeViewController is to be presented on

Advanced
