Getting Started

To get started, import the email_otp package in your Flutter project:

import 'package:email_otp/email_otp.dart';

Usage

Initialize the EmailOTP class:

EmailOTP myAuth = EmailOTP();

Configuration

Configure your OTP authentication settings using the setConfig method:

myAuth.setConfig(
    appEmail: "[e-mail]",
    appName: "Email OTP",
    userEmail: email.text,
    otpLength: 6,
    otpType: OTPType.digitsOnly
);

1. appEmail: Your personal or company email address, visible to clients when they receive OTPs.
2. appName: Your app's name, displayed to clients in the email.
3. userEmail: The recipient's email address where the OTP needs to be sent.
4. otpLength: The length of the OTP (e.g., 6 digits).
5. otpType: Choose from OTPType.digitsOnly, OTPType.stringOnly, or OTPType.mixed for different OTP formats.

Customizing Email Templates (Optional)

You can customize your email template using the setTemplate method. If not used, the default template provided by Email OTP will be used.

var template = 'YOUR HTML CODE HERE';
myAuth.setTemplate(
    render: template 
);

In your HTML, use placeholders like {{app_name}} and {{otp}} to display the app name and OTP. For example:

Thank you for choosing {{app_name}}. Your OTP is {{otp}}.

Configuring Custom SMTP (Optional)

Configure your SMTP settings using the setSMTP method if you want to send OTPs from a custom email address. Make sure your SMTP credentials are correct. Test your SMTP configuration at smtper.net.

myAuth.setSMTP(
    host: "smtp.rohitchouhan.com",
    auth: true,
    username: "[e-mail]",
    password: "*************",
    secure: "TLS",
    port: 576
);

1. host: Your SMTP hostname.
2. auth: Boolean (true/false) indicating if SMTP authentication is required.
3. username: Your SMTP email address.
4. password: Your SMTP email password.
5. secure: Choose from "TLS" or "SSL" for secure connections.
6. port: Port number of your SMTP email server.

Sending and Verifying OTPs

Use the following methods to send and verify OTPs:

Sending OTP

await myAuth.sendOTP();

Verifying OTP

var inputOTP = 987654; // OTP entered by the client after receiving the email
await myAuth.verifyOTP(
    otp: inputOTP
