I'm trying to create a website with angular 6 and send emails from contact form.
This website is deployed on apache server and there is no backend, just Angular 6 html and javascript files.
I have maillet/mailgun account, firebase account and smtp access on my email address.
Is it possible to send email with angular 6 only ? How can i do that ?
Thanks. :)

- You may want to take a look at EmailJS, which allows sending email from the client side Javascript code using pre-built templates [disclosure - I'm one of the creators] – Sasha Commented Aug 26, 2018 at 6:29

Reset to default 3You can't do that using only Angular, here's an example using Angular with a little of PHP to send emails:
HTML form:
<form [formGroup]="subscribeForm" novalidate (ngSubmit)="sendMail($event)">
<input type="text" placeholder="Enter your email" formControlName="email"/>
<button class="button margin-top-15" type="submit">Subscribe</button>
</form>
Ts file:
export class MyComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
public subscribeForm: FormGroup;
public email: FormControl;
private unsubscribe = new Subject<void>();
constructor(private databaseService: DatabaseService, private mailerService: MailerService, private http: HttpClient) { }
ngOnInit() {
this.createFormControls();
this.createForm();
}
createFormControls() {
this.email = new FormControl('', [
Validators.required
]);
}
createForm() {
this.subscribeForm = new FormGroup({
email: this.email
});
}
sendMail() {
if (this.subscribeForm.valid) {
this.http.post("link to the php file.", email).subscribe();
}
}
ngOnDestroy(): void {
this.unsubscribe.next();
this.unsubscribe.plete();
}
}
and in the php file:
<?php
header('Content-type: application/json');
header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
$request = json_decode(file_get_contents("php://input"));
$from_email = "your email goes here";
$message = "Wele.";
$from_name = "your name goes here";
$to_email = $request->email;
$contact = "<p><strong>Name:</strong>$from_name</p><p><strong>Email:</strong> $from_email</p>";
$email_subject = "Angular Php Email Example: Neue Nachricht von $from_name erhalten";
$email_body = '<html><body>';
$email_body .= "$<p><strong>Name:</strong>$from_name</p><p><strong>Email:</strong> $from_email</p>
<p>$message</p>";
$email_body .= '</body></html>';
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "From: $from_email\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $from_email";
mail($to_email,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);
$response_array['status'] = 'success';
$response_array['from'] = $from_email;
echo json_encode($response_array);
echo json_encode($from_email);
header($response_array);
return $from_email;
?>
