mailbuilder

A simple ERB based email template thingy! The nice thing is that it inlines the images =).

Usage

build_test_email.rb

  # encoding: utf-8

  require "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/../lib/mail_builder.rb"

  mail = MailBuilder.new("#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/emails/test").build({:name => "Björn Blomqvist"})
  mail.subject "Just another test"
  mail.to "[email protected]"
  mail.from "[email protected]"

  File.open("/tmp/test.eml",'w') do |file|
    file.write(mail.to_s)
  end

  puts "Wrote the email to: /tmp/test.eml"

emails/test/test.txt.erb

  Just a simple test

  <%= name %>

emails/test/test.html.erb

  <body bgimage="darwin.png">
    <h1>Just a simple test</h1>

    <%= name %>

    <img src="darwin.png" >

Contributing to mailbuilder

  • Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
  • Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
  • Fork the project
  • Start a feature/bugfix branch
  • Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
  • Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
  • Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
