Laravel version - 8

What Am I trying to do?

Sending email without env variable.

Am i missing anything?

Code

config('MAIL_DRIVER', 'smtp');
config('MAIL_USERNAME', "email username");
config('MAIL_HOST', "smtp.gmail.com");
config('MAIL_PASSWORD', "password");

config('MAIL_ENCRYPTION', "tls");

$invitedUser = new Admin();
$invitedUser->email = 'recipient email address';
$invitedUser->notify(new TestingNotification());

CodePudding user response：

config(['mail.mailers.smtp.host' => "host"]);
config(['mail.mailers.smtp.encryption' => "tls"]);

config(['mail.mailers.smtp.port' => "port"]);
config(['mail.mailers.smtp.from' => "from"]);

It seems like there's something wrong with your configuration. The error mentions mailhog as a host, but that probably is not what you wanted.

Maybe you wrote things like config('MAIL_HOST', "smtp.gmail.com"); as pseudo code, but usually you'd set this up in your mail.php config file. For example:

'mailers' => [
        'smtp' => [
            'transport' => 'smtp',
            'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'smtp.gmail.com'),`.
            ...
        ]
]
