Easily detect installed email clients and allow the user to choose one when sending an email.
I use it to quickly add a "Contact me" feature in my apps. This will detect a list of SYEmailService, representing:
- native in-app composer
- third party apps
- last resort: copy email address to clipboard, to let your user send via an unsupported app
If there are no items in the list the completion block is called with an error: SYEmailHelperErrorDomain, code SYEmailHelperErrorCode_NoServiceAvailable.
If the use selected a third party app that couldn't be opened an error will be generated too: SYEmailHelperErrorCode_CouldntOpenApp.
If a single supported service is available it will automatically be launched.
If multiple supported services are available an action sheet will be displayed.
You can:
- disable the "copy to pasteboard" option
- change the text for "copy to pasteboard" option
- change the text for "cancel" option
Example:
[SYEmailServicePasteboard setName:@"Copy email address to pasteboard"];
[[SYEmailHelper shared] setShowCopyToPasteboard:YES];
[[SYEmailHelper shared] setActionSheetTitleText:@"Which app you wanna use bro?"];
[[SYEmailHelper shared] setActionSheetCancelButtonText:@"fuhgeddaboudit"];
[[SYEmailHelper shared] composeEmailWithAddress:self.fieldEmail.text
subject:self.fieldSubject.text
body:self.fieldBody.text
presentingVC:self
completion:
^(BOOL userCancelled, SYEmailService *service, NSError *error)
{
if (userCancelled)
self.labelCompletion.text = @"User cancelled";
else if (service && error)
self.labelCompletion.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Service %@ encountered error: %@", service.name, error.localizedDescription];
else if (error)
self.labelCompletion.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Encountered error: %@", error.localizedDescription];
else
self.labelCompletion.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"No error, used service %@", service.name];
}];
You'll need to add the list of supported apps inside your Info.plist. Here are the needed items for the current list of supported apps.
<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
<string>googlegmail</string>
<string>inbox-gmail</string>
<string>ms-outlook</string>
</array>
Use it as you like in every project you want, redistribute with mentions of my name and don't blame me if it breaks :)
