Uploading to your Host
You only need to upload the "lib/" directory to your web host for production use. All other files and directories are support files not needed in production.
You will need FTP, rsync or similar software installed in order to upload the "lib/" directory to your web host.
To upload Swift Mailer:
- Open your FTP program, or a command line if you prefer rsync/scp.
- Upload the "lib/" directory to your hosting account.
The files needed to use Swift Mailer should now be accessible to PHP on your host.
The following example shows show you can upload the files using rsync on Linux or OS X.
Note:
You do not need to place the files inside your web root. They only need to be in a place
where your PHP scripts can "include" them.
