In Laravel 9, how do I get the Illuminate/Mail/Message, to call embedData(), without a blade file?

We're using Laravel 9, and we store email template in our database, not in blade files.

When sending an email, we would like to use the embedData() function on the Illuminate/Mail/Message class, but how do we get this message object?

We have a class that extends Illuminate\Mail\Mailable, called App\Mail\Message.

We send mail like this:

$message = new App\Mail\Message($subject, $fullBody, $fromAddress, $replyTo, $attachments);
$message->to($address)->from($fromAddress, $fromName);
Mail::send($message);

But we want the Illuminate/Mail/Message message object, because we want the embed function. How can we get this object?

Use mail raw and if the template is in blade syntax, you can parse it using the Blade class.

$template = Template::find(11); // get the template from db
$templateBody = $template->body; // or whatever the template body attribute is
$templateRender = Blade::render($templateBody); // render body via blade engine

Mail::raw($templateRender, function (Message $message) {
    $message->subject('Hello, world!');
    $message->to('steve@apple.com');
    // add other stuff to the message here...
});

In our app/Mail/Message::build() function, we ran this to get the $message object:

return $this->withSymfonyMessage(function (Email $message) {
  // here is the $message object
});
