After User Registration Send A Welcome Email Notification In Laravel 8 - FreeCodeBlog

Read this tutorial carefully to send a welcome email notification in laravel 8 after user registration. Suppose you have a laravel 8 project and now you want to send an email notification to registered user when a user register her account via email.

Open .env file and edit mail section for email sending. In this tutorial, I will use mailtrap for email notification sending.

MAIL_MAILER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.mailtrap.io
MAIL_PORT=2525
MAIL_USERNAME=your-mailtrap-username
MAIL_PASSWORD=your-mailtrap-password
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=example@gmail.com
MAIL_FROM_NAME="${APP_NAME}"

Copy below url and paste on any browser and hit enter.

127.0.0.1:8000/register

Connect wifi to your device and register a user. You will get an email verification notification email on mailtrap dashboard after registration.

Now I want to send a welcome email notification when a user registered. Remember I don't develop user email verification. I just send an email when user registered.

Open EventServiceProvider and add verified event and Listener.

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Auth\Events\Registered;
use Illuminate\Auth\Listeners\SendEmailVerificationNotification;
use App\Listeners\WelcomeEmailListener;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Support\Providers\EventServiceProvider as ServiceProvider;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Event;

class EventServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * The event listener mappings for the application.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $listen = [
        Registered::class => [
            WelcomeEmailListener::class,
            SendEmailVerificationNotification::class,
        ],
    ];

    /**
     * Register any events for your application.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        //
    }
}

You need to run event command to generate event and Listener.

php artisan event:generate

Now make a notification to send after user registered.

php artisan make:notification WelcomeEmailNotification

Open WelcomeEmailListener Listener and add WelcomeEmailNotification.

<?php

namespace App\Listeners;

use Illuminate\Auth\Events\Registered;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Queue\InteractsWithQueue;
use App\Notifications\WelcomeEmailNotification;

class WelcomeEmailListener
{
    /**
     * Create the event listener.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Handle the event.
     *
     * @param  Registered $event
     * @return void
     */
    public function handle(Registered $event)
    {
        $event->user->notify(new WelcomeEmailNotification());
    }
}

User will get an email notification after registered. 

Okay so this is for today. See you again next tutorials. Thanks
