Help with sending emails with attached files

[valentesolucoes]

Hello friends,

I'm a little lost in the WinterCMS documentation, about how to attach files from a form on the Frontend by email. In this form, I can send several files (.pdf, .doc or .jpg).

In the Plugin that I created on the Backend, I receive the form data as follows:

public function onSend() {
$params = [
'name' => Input::get('name'),
'email' => Input::get('email'),
'files' => Input::file('files'), //files that I attached
];

Mail::send('frontend::mail.attachments', $params, function ($message) {
$myFiles = Input::file('files');
$message->to('me@gmail.com', '');
$message->attach($myFiles, ['as' => $uploadedFiles->getClientOriginalName()]);
});

My Frontend form:

<form id="myForm" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" data-request="onSend" data-request-files data-request-complete="resetForm()">
....
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="form-group text-field is-required">
<label for="files" class="control-label">Attach Documents <span class="highlight2">Accepted files (.pdf, .doc or .jpg)</span></label>
<input type="file" id="files" name="files" accept="image/jpeg, application/pdf, application/msword" multiple>
</div>
</div>
</form>

However, when I process the attachment of files to the form and click submit, nothing happens. I believe that some parameter is missing.

Does anyone have an example of how to do this?

@valentesolucoes try adding the data-request-files attribute to your <form> tag.

Thanks a lot !!!!
There's just one detail... I send more than one file, only one is received.

@valentesolucoes you might have to attach each individual files seperately.

Input::file('files') will return an array, so I'd do something like:

Mail::send('frontend::mail.attachments', $params, function ($message) use ($params) {
    $message->to('me@gmail.com', '');
    foreach($params['files'] as $file) {
        $message->attach($file, ['as' => $file->getClientOriginalName()]);
    }
}
