@Component(
name = "Experience AEM Send Mail Servlet",
immediate = true,
service = Servlet.class,
property = {
"sling.servlet.methods=POST",
"sling.servlet.paths=/bin/experience-aem/send-mail"
}
)
public class SendMailServlet extends SlingAllMethodsServlet {
private final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(getClass());

private static String EMAIL_TEMPLATE_PATH = "/apps/eaem-assets-send-mail/mail-templates/send-assets.html";

@Reference
private MessageGatewayService messageGatewayService;

@Override
protected void doPost(final SlingHttpServletRequest req,
final SlingHttpServletResponse resp) throws ServletException, IOException {
ResourceResolver resourceResolver = req.getResourceResolver();

try{
String to = req.getParameter("./to");
String subject = req.getParameter("./subject");
String body = req.getParameter("./body");

Map<String, String> emailParams = new HashMap<String,String>();

emailParams.put("subject", subject);
emailParams.put("body", body.replaceAll("\r\n", ""));

sendMail(resourceResolver, emailParams, to);
}catch(Exception e){
logger.error("Error sending email", e);
}
}

private Email sendMail(ResourceResolver resolver, Map<String, String> emailParams, String recipientEmail) throws Exception{
MailTemplate mailTemplate = MailTemplate.create(EMAIL_TEMPLATE_PATH, resolver.adaptTo(Session.class));

if (mailTemplate == null) {
throw new Exception("Template missing - " + EMAIL_TEMPLATE_PATH);
}

Email email = mailTemplate.getEmail(StrLookup.mapLookup(emailParams), HtmlEmail.class);

email.setTo(Collections.singleton(new InternetAddress(recipientEmail)));

MessageGateway messageGateway = messageGatewayService.getGateway(email.getClass());

messageGateway.send(email);

return email;
}
