Summary10892: Support EM placeholders for file names when attaching files to emails
Description

The feature to attach files to (confirmation) emails is great. It would be perfect if we could even use placeholders like {SAVEDID} or {SID} within the file names.

Additional Information

A typical use case is a chart file (img) created at survey runtime and using the current data set ID (maybe + SID) within the file name, example "chart_assessment_123456_user_21.png".

TagsNo tags attached.

The whole attachment feature could be done in a core plugin, or even move notification emails to a plugin.

That way notification plugin could also use other media than mails.

A plugin can add own system in 4.0 because can add anything in before(Token|Survey)Email.

The way:

  • Add some string in beforeSurveySettings
  • Test (and replace) this string in beforeTokenEmail
  • If string return a valid file : $this->getEvent()->get('mailer')->addAttachment($resultUrlFile,$resultName)

Then the attachement is done using $resultName with $resultUrlFile

@DenisChenu: Many great things can be done using plugins but EM placeholders, to me, are a core feature and thus this should be added to core.

@cdorin, any chance to support EM placeholders for file names when attaching files to emails at LS 4.1.x or 4.2?

Many great things can be done using plugins but EM placeholders, to me, are a core feature and thus this should be added to core.

We still maintain a lot of ≤feature» in core, didn't know if this feature are used or not.

Make new feature in plugin (included in core) allow to have more and more great plugin.

I work on matomo revious week : and there plugin system are really great .
