Mailhog + Symfony 3

Mailhog + Symfony 3

 $message = \Swift_Message::newInstance()
        ->setSubject('Hello Email')
        ->setFrom('send@example.com')
        ->setTo('recipient@example.com')
        ->setBody('You should see me from the profiler!')
    ;

    $this->get('mailer')->send($message);


Create a file 'docker-compose.yml' add:

mailhog:
  image: 'mailhog/mailhog:latest'
  container_name: mailhog
  restart: always
  ports:
    - '8025:8025'
    - '1025:1025'


Run `` then `docker run mailhog/mailhog`.

Check process: ˙docker-compose ps˙.

Run mailbox: http://0.0.0.0:8025/#

Set configuration in Symfony:

Set configuration: `parameters.yml`:

    mailer_transport: smtp
    mailer_host: 127.0.0.1:1025
    mailer_port: 1025
    mailer_user: null
    mailer_password: null


# Swiftmailer Configuration
swiftmailer:
    transport: '%mailer_transport%'
    host: '%mailer_host%'
    username: '%mailer_user%'
    password: '%mailer_password%'
    port: '%mailer_port%'
    spool: { type: memory }

One comment to clarify to others that use a Symfony container, set the host as the name of the mailhog container, i.e. with the configuration above, the symfony app using the mailhog host need to inform:

host: mailhog
