email

Erlang Mail application. Support pluggable backends. Comes default with a mailgun-adapter but adding new adapters is real simple.

Using

In Erlang

Include email as a rebar dependency with:

	{deps, [{email, ".*", {git, "git://github.com/kivra/email.git", "master"}}]}.

You have to start the email app with application:start(email). Then you can use it as:

	Erlang R15B01 (erts-5.9.1) [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

	Eshell V5.9.1  (abort with ^G)
	1> application:start(email).
	ok
	2> email:send({<<"Silly Wabbit">>, <<"[email protected]">>},
                  {<<"Funky Chicken">>, <<"[email protected]">>},
                  <<"Test subject">>, <<"test message!! Yihaa.">>).
	{ok,[{<<"message">>,<<"Queued. Thank you.">>},
     {<<"id">>,
      <<"<[email protected]>">>}]}

In Elixir

Add email as a dependency in your mix.exs file.

defp deps do
  [ { :email, github: "kivra/email" } ]
end

After you are done, run mix deps.get in your shell to fetch and compile the dependencies.

Configure

The following example demonstrates a basic app.config section for email using mailgun.

[
    {email, [
            {adapter, mailgun},
            {mailgun, [
                {domain, "samples.mailgun.org"},
                {apiurl, "https://api.mailgun.net/v2"},
                {apikey, "key-3ax6xnjp29jd6fds4gc373sgvjxteol0"}
            ]}
        ]}
].

In Elixir

Create or update your application configuration file (i.e.: app.config) with the configuration snippet above, and make sure to run iex or mix with the erl --config option:

  • iex --erl "-config app.config" -S mix or
  • ELIXIR_ERL_OPTS="-config app.config" mix test

Happy emailing!
