How can I use mailgun to extend CEmailLogRoute in Yii? - php

Question

I am using the Mailgun Yii extension(https://github.com/baibaratsky/php-mailgun) and am able to send a test email from inside the 'views/site/SiteController.php' file using the following code:
$message = Yii::app()->mailgun->newMessage();
$message->setFrom('sender#domain.com', 'Sender Name');
$message->addTo('recipient#domain.com', 'Recipient Name');
$message->setSubject('Mailgun API library test');
$message->setText('Test Email Content Text');
$message->send();
Now I am trying to extend the CEmailLogRoute class so that I can send any log emails using mailgun with no success. This is the class I wrote to extend it:
class CMailGunLogRoute extends CEmailLogRoute {
protected function sendEmail($email, $subject, $message) {
$message = Yii::app()->mailgun->newMessage();
$message->setFrom('sender#domain.com', 'Sender Name');
$message->addTo($email);
$message->setSubject($subject);
$message->setText($message);
$message->send();
}
}
And this is what I added to the 'config/main.php' file:
'log'=>array(
'class'=>'CLogRouter',
'routes'=>array(
array(
'class'=>'CEmailLogRoute',
'levels'=>'info',
'emails'=>'recipient#domain.com',
'sentFrom'=>'sender#domain.com',
'subject'=>'Email Log File Message',
),
),
),
And this is the logging function I am declaring on the root index file:
function d2l($what, $where='fb.somewhere') {
$what = print_r($what,true);
Yii::log($what, 'info','application.'.$where);
}
And this is where I am calling that function from within the 'SiteController.php' file:
d2l('Test Log Message','site.index');
Unfortunately, none of this seems to get it to send the log email. Initially I tried to send the log email without using mailgun and that didn't work either, so perhaps the issue is with the code I wrote for the mail logging.

I figured out how to do this:
CMailGunLogRoute.php
// components/CMailGunLogRoute.php
class CMailGunLogRoute extends CEmailLogRoute {
protected function sendEmail($email, $subject, $message) {
$mail = Yii::app()->mailgun->newMessage();
$mail->setFrom($this->getSentFrom());
$mail->addTo($email);
$mail->setSubject($subject);
$mail->setText($message);
$mail->send();
}
}
SiteController.php
// controllers/SiteController.php
Yii::log('Test Log Message', 'info','application');
main.php
// config/main.php
'import'=>array(
'application.components.*',
),
'mailgun' => array(
'class' => 'application.extensions.php-mailgun.MailgunYii',
'domain' => 'mydomain.com',
'key' => 'API_KEY_NUM',
'tags' => array('yii'), // You may also specify some Mailgun parameters
'enableTracking' => true,
),
'log'=>array(
'class'=>'CLogRouter',
'routes'=>array(
array(
'class'=>'CMailGunLogRoute',
'levels'=>'info',
'filter'=>'CLogFilter',
'emails'=>'recipient#domain.com',
'sentFrom'=>'sender#domain.com',
'subject'=>'Email Log File Message',
),
),
),
