• AKM: @MohitKumarArora, to be honest, I don't know how to send an email with CSV File and also I am confused with your code in where should I place the receiver email.

Answer 1

First of all, Magento (at the time of writing, I am using Magento version 2.2.7) does not provide the functionality to add an attachment in the email.

To add an attachment programmatically in the email, first, you need to override \Magento\Framework\Mail\Template\TransportBuilder class.

Step 1: app/code/[Namespace]/[Module]/etc/di.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
 <preference for="\Magento\Framework\Mail\Template\TransportBuilder" type="\[Namespace]\[Module]\Mail\Template\TransportBuilder" />
</config>

Step 2: app/code/[Namespace]/[Module]/Mail/Template/TransportBuilder.php

<?php
namespace Stream\EmailPrintableCsv\Mail\Template;
class TransportBuilder extends \Magento\Framework\Mail\Template\TransportBuilder {
 public function addAttachment(
 $filePath, $filename = null, $mimeType = \Zend_Mime::TYPE_OCTETSTREAM, $disposition = \Zend_Mime::DISPOSITION_ATTACHMENT, $encoding = \Zend_Mime::ENCODING_BASE64
 ) {
 if (file_exists($filePath)) {
 $body = file_get_contents($filePath);
 $this->message->createAttachment($body, $mimeType, $disposition, $encoding, $filename);
 }
 return $this;
 }
}

Now, you can call addAttachment() function while sending an email.

Note: addAttachment function requires 2 parameters: filePath and fileName.

• AKM: But first, I don't know how to send the email in my cron class.

Answer 2

I wrote an extension to allow you to attach a file to the contact form

Take a look at the controller
