Laravel Email Verification Template Location

Question

I have been reading from the documentation about the new feature of laravel the email verification. Where can I locate the email template that is sent to the user? It does not show here: https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/verification#after-verifying-emails

Answer 1

Laravel uses this method of VerifyEmail notification class for send email:

public function toMail($notifiable)
{
    if (static::$toMailCallback) {
        return call_user_func(static::$toMailCallback, $notifiable);
    }
    return (new MailMessage)
        ->subject(Lang::getFromJson('Verify Email Address'))
        ->line(Lang::getFromJson('Please click the button below to verify your email address.'))
        ->action(
            Lang::getFromJson('Verify Email Address'),
            $this->verificationUrl($notifiable)
        )
        ->line(Lang::getFromJson('If you did not create an account, no further action is required.'));
}

Method in source code.

If you wanna use your own Email template, you can extend Base Notification Class.

1) Create in app/Notifications/ file VerifyEmail.php

<?php
namespace App\Notifications;
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Messages\MailMessage;
use Illuminate\Support\Carbon;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\URL;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Lang;
use Illuminate\Auth\Notifications\VerifyEmail as VerifyEmailBase;

class VerifyEmail extends VerifyEmailBase
{
//    use Queueable;

    // change as you want
    public function toMail($notifiable)
    {
        if (static::$toMailCallback) {
            return call_user_func(static::$toMailCallback, $notifiable);
        }
        return (new MailMessage)
            ->subject(Lang::getFromJson('Verify Email Address'))
            ->line(Lang::getFromJson('Please click the button below to verify your email address.'))
            ->action(
                Lang::getFromJson('Verify Email Address'),
                $this->verificationUrl($notifiable)
            )
            ->line(Lang::getFromJson('If you did not create an account, no further action is required.'));
    }
}

2) Add to User model:

use App\Notifications\VerifyEmail;

and

/**
 * Send the email verification notification.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function sendEmailVerificationNotification()
{
    $this->notify(new VerifyEmail); // my notification
}

---

Also if you need blade template:

laravel will generate all of the necessary email verification views when the make:auth command is executed. This view is placed in resources/views/auth/verify.blade.php. You are free to customize this view as needed for your application.

Source.

Answer 2

Answer in comment already. Sent by the toMail() method.

vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Auth\Notifications\VerifyEmail::toMail();

For template structure and appearance; take a look at this locations also and you can also publish to modify the template:

\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Notifications\resources\views\email.blade.php
\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Mail\resources\views\

To publish those locations:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-notifications
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-mail

After running this command, the mail notification templates will be located in the resources/views/vendor directory.

Colors and style are controlled by the CSS file in resources/views/vendor/mail/html/themes/default.css

Answer 3

Also, if you want to translate standard mail VerifyEmail (or other where use Lang::fromJson(...)), you need create new json file in resources/lang/ and name it ru.json, for example. It may contain (resources/lang/ru.json) text below and must be valid.

{
  "Verify Email Address" : "Подтверждение email адреса"
}

Answer 4

Look I do that very easy do the following steps :

---

In Route File

Auth::routes(['verify' => true]);

In AppServiceProvider.php File

namespace App\Providers;
use App\Mail\EmailVerification;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use View;
use URL;
use Carbon\Carbon;
use Config;
use Illuminate\Auth\Notifications\VerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Messages\MailMessage;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * Register any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function register()
    {
        //
    }

    /**
     * Bootstrap any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        // Override the email notification for verifying email
        VerifyEmail::toMailUsing(function ($notifiable){        
            $verifyUrl = URL::temporarySignedRoute('verification.verify',
            \Illuminate\Support\Carbon::now()->addMinutes(\Illuminate\Support\Facades 
            \Config::get('auth.verification.expire', 60)),
            [
                'id' => $notifiable->getKey(),
                'hash' => sha1($notifiable->getEmailForVerification()),
            ]
        );
        return new EmailVerification($verifyUrl, $notifiable);

        });

    }
}

Now Create EmailVerification With Markdown

php artisan make:mail EmailVerification --markdown=emails.verify-email

Edit The EmailVerrification as you want and the blade file

class EmailVerification extends Mailable
{
    use Queueable, SerializesModels;
    public $verifyUrl;
    protected $user;
    /**
     * Create a new message instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct($url,$user)
    {
        $this->verifyUrl = $url;
        $this->user = $user;
    }

    /**
     * Build the message.
     *
     * @return $this
     */
    public function build()
    {
        $address = 'mymail@gmail.com';
        $name = 'Name';
        $subject = 'verify Email';
        return $this->to($this->user)->subject($subject)->from($address, $name)->
        markdown('emails.verify',['url' => $this->verifyUrl,'user' => $this->user]);
    }
}

in the blade file change the design as you want and use verifyUrl to display the verification link and $user to display user information

thanks, happy coding :)

Answer 5

Actually they do not use any blade or template files. They create notifications and write code for it in notifications.

Answer 6

vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Mail\resources\views\html

You will find the Laravel default email template in this file location.

Answer 7

If a notification supports being sent as an email, you should define a toMail method on the notification class. This method will receive a $notifiable entity and should return a Illuminate\Notifications\Messages\MailMessage instance. Mail messages may contain lines of text as well as a "call to action".

/**
 * Get the mail representation of the notification.
 *
 * @param  mixed  $notifiable
 * @return \Illuminate\Notifications\Messages\MailMessage
 */
public function toMail($notifiable)
{
    $url = url('/invoice/'.$this->invoice->id);

    return (new MailMessage)
                ->greeting('Hello!')
                ->line('One of your invoices has been paid!')
                ->action('View Invoice', $url)
                ->line('Thank you for using our application!');
}

You can use the laravel e-mail builder as documented here: https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/notifications#mail-notifications. Laravel will take care of the e-mail view.
