Add to your app
Adding Maildroid to your app is straight forword process. Library is using Builder pattern to achieve flexebilty and easy to read wholesome implementation:
MaildroidX.Builder()
.smtp("")
.smtpUsername("")
.smtpPassword("")
.smtpAuthentication()
.port("")
.type(MaildroidX.HTML)
.to("")
.from("")
.subject("")
.body("")
.attachment("")
//or
.attachments() //List<String>
.onCompleteCallback(object : MaildroidX.onCompleteCallback{
override val timeout: Long = 3000
override fun onSuccess() {
Log.d("MaildroidX", "SUCCESS")
}
override fun onFail() {
Log.d("MaildroidX", "FAIL")
}
})
.mail()
DSL implementation:
sendEmail {
smtp("smtp.mailtrap.io")
smtpUsername("username")
smtpPassword("password")
smtpAuthentication(true)
port("2525")
type(MaildroidXType.HTML)
to("johndoe@email.com")
from("janedoen@email.com")
subject("Hello!")

attachment("path_to_file/file.txt")
//or
attachments() //List<String>
callback {
timeOut(3000)
onSuccess {

Motivation
Maildroid was born from the frustration of implementing a good emailing solution I had while developing a few client apps. I had to do many hours of unneeded work to make some emailing functions work using old libraries. Those libraries were limited to one SMTP server and because of that frustration Maildroid
was born..
