SYNOPSIS
use Catalyst 'Email';
__PACKAGE__->config->{email} = [qw/SMTP smtp.oook.de/];
$c->email(
header => [
From => '[email protected]',
To => '[email protected]',
Subject => 'Hello!'
],
body => 'Hello sri'
);
DESCRIPTION
Send emails with Catalyst and Email::Send and Email::MIME::Creator.CONFIGURATION
"config" accepts the same options as Email::Send.To send using the system's "sendmail" program, set "config" like so:
__PACKAGE__->config->{email} = ['Sendmail'];
To send using authenticated SMTP:
__PACKAGE__->config->{email} = [ 'SMTP', 'smtp.myhost.com', username => $USERNAME, password => $PASSWORD, ];
For different methods of sending emails, and appropriate "config" options, see Email::Send::NNTP, Email::Send::Qmail, Email::Send::SMTP and Email::Send::Sendmail.
METHODS
$c->email( header => [ To => 'me@localhost', Subject => 'A TT Email', ], body => $c->subreq( '/render_email' ), );
To send a multipart message, include a "parts" argument containing an arrayref of Email::MIME objects.
my @parts = ( Email::MIME->create( attributes => { content_type => 'application/pdf', encoding => 'quoted-printable', name => 'report.pdf', }, body => $FILE_DATA, ), Email::MIME->create( attributes => { content_type => 'text/plain', disposition => 'attachment', charset => 'US-ASCII', }, body => $c->subreq( '/render_email' ), ), ); $c->email( header => [ To => 'me@localhost', Subject => 'A TT Email', ], parts => \@parts, );
USING WITH A VIEW
A common practice is to handle emails using the same template language used for HTML pages. If your view supports the 'render' method (Like the TT view does), you just set the body like this:$c->email(
header => [
To => 'me@localhost',
Subject => 'A TT Email',
],
body => $c->view('TT')->render($c,'mytemplate.tt'),
}
If your view doesn't support render, you can just forward to it, then reset the body like this:
sub send_email : Local { my ( $self, $c ) = @_; { local $c->stash->{names} = [ qw/andyg sri mst/ ], local $c->stash->{template}= 'mytemplate.tt'; $c->forward($c->view('MyView')); $c->email( header => [ To => 'me@localhost', Subject => 'A TT Email', ], body => $c->res->body, ); $c->res->body(undef); } }
And the template:
[%- FOREACH name IN names -%] Hi, [% name %]! [%- END -%] -- Regards, Us
Output:
Hi, andyg! Hi, sri! Hi, mst! -- Regards, Us
