# Email Intent Builder

[![Maven Central](https://maven-badges.herokuapp.com/maven-central/de.cketti.mailto/email-intent-builder/badge.svg)](https://maven-badges.herokuapp.com/maven-central/de.cketti.mailto/email-intent-builder)

An Android Library for the creation of [SendTo](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_SENDTO) Intents with [mailto:](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6068) URI

Read the article [Android: Sending Email using Intents](https://medium.com/@cketti/android-sending-email-using-intents-3da63662c58f) if you want to learn what motivated the creation of this library.

## Include the library

Add this to your `dependencies` block in `build.gradle`:

```groovy
implementation 'de.cketti.mailto:email-intent-builder:2.0.0'
```

## Usage

Creating a simple email intent is as easy as this:

```java
Intent emailIntent = EmailIntentBuilder.from(activity)
.to("alice@example.org")
.subject("Feedback")
.build();
```

This will build an intent with the action `android.intent.action.SENDTO` and the data
`mailto:alice@example.org?subject=Feedback`.

You can also use `EmailIntentBuilder` to add a couple of other fields and directly launch the intent:

```java
EmailIntentBuilder.from(activity)
.to("alice@example.org")
.cc("bob@example.org")
.bcc("charles@example.org")
.subject("Message from an app")
.body("Some text here")
.start();
```
