SendGrid Integration for Drupal

This project is not affiliated with SendGrid, Inc.

Use the issue tracker located at Drupal.org (https://www.drupal.org/sendgrid_integration) for bug reports or questions about this module. If you want more info about SendGrid services, contact SendGrid (https://sendgrid.com).

FUNCTIONALITY

This module overrides default email sending behaviour andsending emails through SendGrid Transactional Email service instead.

REQUIREMENTS

Module dependencies: Composer Manager (https://www.drupal.org/project/composer_manager) - A Drupal module to faciltate the use of Composer (https://getcomposer.org) on a per-module basis.

Composer is the definitive source for PHP dependencies, but implementing Composer in modules is difficult to say the least. Composer typically acts over an entire project - in this case it would be your entire Drupal source code. Composer manager allows for modules to declare their own composer.json file rather than a project global composer.json.

Composer is being used because of the usefulness it offers: https://www.acquia.com/blog/using-composer-manager-get-island-now

Running Composer and composer manager will require command line access via DRUSH. There is no GUI for this tool.

Mailsystem - A module to create an agnostic management layer for Mail. Very useful for controling the mail system on Drupal.

INSTALLATION

Installing this module is simple

  1. Move this folder under modules directory of your installation, example sites/all/modules or sites/default/modules

  2. Navigate to Modules and enable SendGrid Integration in the Mail category.

  3. Configure your SendGrid Username and API-Key in admin/config/system/sendgrid

OPTIONAL

If sending email fails with certain (pre-defined) response codes the message be added to Cron Queue for later delivery. In order for this to function, you must configure Cron running period and when it is possible also add your drupal site to crontab (Linux only), read more about cron at https://www.drupal.org/cron.

If you would like a record of the emails being sent by the website, installing Maillog (https://www.drupal.org/project/maillog) will allow you to store local copies of the emails sent. Sendgrid does not store the content of the email.
