DRY sendEmail() ?

Hi

Create one helper file in helper folder (mail_helper.php)

and write

PHP Code:

if ( ! function_exists('sendMail'))
{
    function sendMail($toEmail,$toName,$fromEmail,$fromName,$subject,$message,$ccEmail='',$ccName='')
    { 
        $CI =& get_instance();
        $CI->load->library('email'); // load library 
        $config = Array(
            'protocol' => 'smtp',
            'smtp_host' => 'XXX',
            'smtp_port' => XX,
            'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
            'smtp_pass' => 'XXXXXXXi',
            'mailtype'  => 'html', 
            'crlf'  => '\r\n', 
            'newline'  => '\r\n', 
            'wordwrap'  => TRUE, 
            'starttls'  => FALSE, 
            'charset'   => 'iso-8859-1'
        );
        $CI->email->initialize($config);
        $CI->email->set_newline("\r\n");
        $CI->email->from($fromEmail, $fromName);
        $CI->email->subject($subject);
        $CI->email->message($message);    
        $CI->email->to($toEmail); 
        $CI->email->send();
        return;
    }   
} 


and call or use in controller like below

PHP Code:

$this->load->helper('mail_helper');
sendMail($to_email,$to_name,$from_email,$from_name,'Mail subject','Mail message');
