Motivation

Mailtrap now serves a conventions-compliant templates API at /api/templates (and /api/accounts/{account_id}/templates): every response is wrapped in a data envelope, the list is paginated with token / per_page, and write bodies are flat. The existing /api/email_templates surface keeps its published shape and stays the stable way to manage templates.

This adds the new surface as a sibling resource rather than widening the existing one, because widening would change every return type for current callers. The old surface is not deprecated yet: the new endpoints are experimental, and getAllEmailTemplates() returns every template while getTemplates() returns one page in a data / pagination envelope. It can be deprecated when /api/templates leaves experimental.

Changes

  • Add Api\General\Template ($client->templates($accountId)) for /api/accounts/{id}/templates: getTemplates(perPage:, token:), getTemplate, createTemplate(CreateTemplate), updateTemplate(id, UpdateTemplate), deleteTemplate; flat bodies, raw PSR-7 responses carrying the data / pagination envelope like email campaigns
  • The Api\General\EmailTemplate docblock points at Template (no @deprecated)
  • Add examples/templates/templates.php; fix the swapped subject/category arguments in examples/templates/all.php

How to test

You'll need an account API token and the account id.

  • List — $client->templates($id)->getTemplates(perPage: 1) decodes to ['data' => [one template], 'pagination' => [...]] with next_token when more exist; getTemplates(perPage: 1, token: 2) returns the next page
  • Create / get / update / delete — createTemplate(new CreateTemplate(name:, subject:, category:, bodyHtml:)) returns 201 with data.id; getTemplate, updateTemplate($id, new UpdateTemplate(subject: 'x')) and deleteTemplate (204) follow; getTemplate after delete throws HttpClientException
  • Empty update — new UpdateTemplate() throws RuntimeException from toArray()
  • Old surface — $client->emailTemplates($id) behaves as before

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The General client now exposes an account-scoped Templates API for listing, retrieving, creating, updating, and deleting templates. New request DTOs define create and partial-update payloads. Tests and examples cover the API operations, and documentation distinguishes it from the Email templates API.

Changes

Account-scoped Templates API

Layer / File(s) Summary
Template API and request payloads
src/DTO/Request/Template/*, src/Api/General/Template.php, src/MailtrapGeneralClient.php
Added create and update DTOs and account-scoped methods for listing, retrieving, creating, updating, and deleting templates. The General client maps templates to the new API.
Template API tests
tests/Api/General/TemplateTest.php, tests/MailtrapGeneralClientTest.php
Added tests for request parameters, paths, payloads, responses, and error handling. The client mapping test includes the Templates API.
Examples and API guidance
README.md, examples/README.md, examples/templates/all.php, examples/templates/templates.php, src/Api/General/EmailTemplate.php
Added an example for paginated listing and template CRUD. Documentation distinguishes the experimental Templates API from the Email templates API. The existing EmailTemplate example changes the category and subject argument order.

- New `templates()` resource on MailtrapGeneralClient (account-scoped path), with CreateTemplate/UpdateTemplate DTOs sending flat bodies
- Responses stay raw PSR-7; callers read `data` and `pagination` from the decoded body, as with email campaigns
- `emailTemplates()` is marked @deprecated in docblocks only, no runtime notice, so existing callers keep working
- Fix swapped subject/category arguments in examples/templates/all.php

- Remove the @deprecated tags from EmailTemplate and the "deprecated"
  labels in the READMEs and the all.php example. Replace them with a
  plain docblock pointer to Template. The public spec still calls
  /api/email_templates the stable surface.
- Name the account-scoped path that Template calls in its docblock.
- Document that getTemplates returns one page and that the next page
  needs the same $perPage.

LGTM. The routes, request bodies and pagination match the spec. I left two non-blocking notes on UpdateTemplate inline.

226-245: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Cover empty-body updates in the request test.

UpdateTemplate documents that an empty string clears a body. The current request test derives its expected body from $updateDto->toArray(), so a truthy-filter regression can remove the empty values from both the actual and expected payload. Add a request-path case with literal expected values for both body fields.

Add a request-path test using UpdateTemplate with empty bodyHtml and bodyText
values, and assert that updateTemplate sends both body_html and body_text as
literal empty strings in the PATCH payload. Use literal expected values so the
