Send a email with Laravel Nova Actions - php

Question

I would like to send a mail from a button on Laravel Nova with an action (which I think is the most appropriate).
I already have a template of the mail saved in the mailable, I have made my resource but I don't know what to put inside since I need to retrieve information from this resource like for example the name, a price or the date when the line was created (in my table related to my resource).
My resource code:
<?php
namespace App\Nova;
use App\Image;
use Gloudemans\Shoppingcart\Cart;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Laravel\Nova\Fields\Currency;
use Laravel\Nova\Fields\Date;
use Laravel\Nova\Fields\Heading;
use Laravel\Nova\Fields\ID;
use Laravel\Nova\Fields\Text;
use Laravel\Nova\Http\Requests\NovaRequest;
use Techouse\IntlDateTime\IntlDateTime;
class Order extends Resource
{
/**
* The model the resource corresponds to.
*
* #var string
*/
public static $model = \App\Order::class;
public static $group = 'Paramètres';
public static function label()
{
return __('Commandes');
}
public static function singularLabel()
{
return __('Commande');
}
/**
* The single value that should be used to represent the resource when being displayed.
*
* #var string
*/
public static $title = 'id';
/**
* The columns that should be searched.
*
* #var array
*/
public static $search = [
'id',
];
/**
* Get the fields displayed by the resource.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #return array
*/
public function fields(Request $request)
{
return [
ID::make()->sortable(),
Text::make('Nom du client', 'name'),
IntlDateTime::make('Passée le', 'created_at')
->locale('fr')
->readonly(),
Currency::make('Prix', 'total')->currency('EUR'),
Text::make('Mode de paiement', 'gateway')
->readonly(),
Text::make('Numéro de téléphone', 'phone'),
Heading::make('Adresse de livraison'),
Text::make('Adresse', 'address')
->hideFromIndex(),
Text::make('Code postal', 'postal_code')
->hideFromIndex(),
Text::make('Ville', 'city')
->hideFromIndex(),
Text::make('Pays', 'country')
->hideFromIndex(),
];
}
/**
* Get the cards available for the request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #return array
*/
public function cards(Request $request)
{
return [];
}
/**
* Get the filters available for the resource.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #return array
*/
public function filters(Request $request)
{
return [];
}
/**
* Get the lenses available for the resource.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #return array
*/
public function lenses(Request $request)
{
return [];
}
/**
* Get the actions available for the resource.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #return array
*/
public function actions(Request $request)
{
return [];
}
}
My mailable code:
<?php
namespace App\Mail;
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Mail\Mailable;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
class ResendOrder extends Mailable
{
use Queueable, SerializesModels;
/**
* Elements de contact
* #var array
*/
public $contact;
/**
* Create a new message instance.
*
* #return void
*/
public function __construct(Array $contact)
{
$this->contact = $contact;
}
/**
* Build the message.
*
* #return $this
*/
public function build()
{
return $this->view('emails.orderconfirmation')
->subject("Confirmation de commande");
}
}
And finally my Action code:
<?php
namespace App\Nova\Actions;
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Queue\InteractsWithQueue;
use Illuminate\Support\Collection;
use Laravel\Nova\Actions\Action;
use Laravel\Nova\Fields\ActionFields;
class EmailOrderConfirmation extends Action
{
use InteractsWithQueue, Queueable;
/**
* Perform the action on the given models.
*
* #param \Laravel\Nova\Fields\ActionFields $fields
* #param \Illuminate\Support\Collection $models
* #return mixed
*/
public $name = 'Renvoyer le mail de confirmation de commande';
public function handle(ActionFields $fields, Collection $models)
{
return Action::message('Mail envoyé');
}
/**
* Get the fields available on the action.
*
* #return array
*/
public function fields()
{
return [];
}
}
I don't really know where to go and what to use, if you could enlighten me on that I would be very grateful, thank you!

// in EmailOrderConfirmation --nova action
// declare what you are using
// use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail;
// use App\Mail\ResendOrder;
public function handle(ActionFields $fields, Collection $models)
{
//loop over the orders that have been selected in nova
foreach ($models as $order) {
$contact = $order->contract; //however you are getting contract data
//assuming you have a $order->user order belongs to user relationship
//send mail to the user, with the order/contract details to create your email
Mail::to($order->user->email)->send(new ResendOrder($contact));
}
//return a message to nova
return Action::message('Mail envoyé');
}
// in Order /Nova resource
// declare what you are using
// use App\Nova\Actions\EmailOrderConfirmation;
public function actions(Request $request)
{
return [new EmailOrderConfirmation];
}
