Loading image/bar before sending mails in laravel

Question

I want to show loading image or bar while server is taking time to send the email to the specified user in laravel. Is there any laravel package to do so?

Answer 1

You should use queues for that. From the docs :

Since sending email messages can drastically lengthen the response time of your application, many developers choose to queue email messages for background sending. Laravel makes this easy using its built-in unified queue API. To queue a mail message, use the queue method on the Mail facade after specifying the message's recipients:

Mail::to($request->user())
    ->cc($moreUsers)
    ->bcc($evenMoreUsers)
    ->queue(new OrderShipped($order));

https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/mail#queueing-mail

Answer 2

// check for failures

if (Mail::failures()) {
    // return response showing failed emails
}else{
    return response()->json(['status'=>201],201);
}

//in you ajax function probably!

 $('#sendEmailBtn').click(function(e){

      showLoadingImage();    

      $.ajax({
          url:url,
          data:data,
          success:function(response){
               if(response == 201){
                      stopLoadingImage();
              }

          }
     });
});
