How to use Actionmailer4 without rails - ruby

I have used actionmailer 2.3 without rails and when tried the same code with 4.0 components ruby code that use actionmailer4 is not working. I have the solution now that works and I am going to respond in the answer section.

require 'rubygems'
require 'action_mailer'
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:enable_starttls_auto => :true,
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => "xxxx.com",
:authentication => :plain,
:user_name => "aaaa#xxxx.com",
:password => "ppppp"
}
ActionMailer::Base.view_paths= File.dirname(__FILE__)
class TEST_CLASS_email < ActionMailer::Base
default( {from: "aaaa#xxxx.com"} )
def sendemail(s_email)
#var = 'TESTING VARIABLE PASSING TO VIEW'
mail(
to: "bbbb.cccc#dddd.com",
subject: "Testing out from ACTIONMAILER4",
bcc: s_email
)
end
end
def testemailpubmethod(email)
begin
e=TEST_CLASS_email.sendemail(email)
if e.present?
e.deliver_now
end
rescue Exception => exception
puts "Email:Exception Message: #{exception.message}"
puts "Error sending the email #{exception.backtrace.join("\n")}"
end
end
testemailpubmethod("eeee#ffff.com")
Now create the template files in the following subdirectory.
============================================================
./test_class_email/sendemail.text.erb
=====================================
This is a text email from <%= #var %>
-Have fun using Actionmailer4 :)

Full URL is not coming when using action mailer in Rail 3?

I am trying to implement reset password feature in my app using Ruby on Rails.I am using action mailer to send link to user's email.The email is delivering to user with link but when user is clicking on that link the full URL is not coming(i.e-"localhost:3000/homes/resetpass").Only "/homes/resetpass" is coming.Please check my following codes and help me to resolve this issue.
views/user_mailer/registration_confirmation.html.erb
<p><%= #users.first_name %>,</p>
<p>Thank you for registering!</p>
<p>Edit Your Password <%= link_to "Click Here",homes_resetpass_path(:id => #users.id ),:host => "localhost:3000" %></p>
mailers/user_mailers.rb
class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
default from: "rajatpradhan474#gmail.com"
def registration_confirmation(user)
#users = user
mail(:to => user.email, :subject => "Registered")
end
end
config/initializers/setup_mail.rb
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => "gmail.com",
:user_name => "rajatpradhan474#gmail.com",
:password => "**********",
:authentication => "plain",
:enable_starttls_auto => true
}
ActionMailer::Base.default_url_options[:host] = "localhost:3000"
You need to use url_for instead of link_to. The linked page describes how and why.

Ruby gem 'Mail' setting up with SMTP

So I am testing out the Ruby gem 'Mail'. Below is my code. According to the sysadmin, there is no authentication necessary to send out by SMTP and the server is allowed to send by SMTP. If that makes sense.
I have used the 'net/smtp' which worked fine but I can't seem to get this 'Mail' gem to work for me. It's not giving me any errors so I'm not sure what the issue is. I am a complete ruby noob at this.
#testing out mailer
require 'mail'
Mail.defaults do
delivery_method :smtp, {
:address => '10.18.34.18',
:port => '25',
:user_name => 'anonymous',
:password => 'anonymous',
:authentication => 'plain',
:enable_starttls_auto => true}
end
mail = Mail.new do
from 'server#company.com'
to 'cvu#company.com'
subject 'This is a test email'
body File.read('test.txt')
end
mail.to_s
Try calling mail.deliver!, calling to_s just returns you a string representation of the object.
Alternatively you can call deliver with a block instead of calling new, e.g.
mail = Mail.deliver do
from 'server#company.com'
to 'cvu#company.com'
subject 'This is a test email'
body File.read('test.txt')
end
In addition to what struthersneil stated, I had to remove the authentication like so:
require 'mail'
Mail.defaults do
delivery_method :smtp, {
:address => '10.18.34.18',
:port => '25',
:enable_starttls_auto => true}
end

Actionmailer - heroku app

This is a newbie question so please excuse me, I have been working with rails, but this is the first time i am trying to require gems from a heroku app that does not include rails - just a plain Ruby app.
ok I have a app.rb file looking like this:
require "sinatra"
require 'koala'
require 'action_mailer'
ActionMailer::Base.raise_delivery_errors = true
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => "smtp.sendgrid.net",
:port => 587,
:domain => "MYDOMAIN",
:authentication => :plain,
:user_name => "USER_NAME",
:password => "PASSWORD",
:enable_starttls_auto => true
}
ActionMailer::Base.view_paths= File.dirname(__FILE__)
class TestMailer < ActionMailer::Base
default :from => "MY_EMAIL"
def welcome_email
mail(:to => "MY_EMAIL", :subject => "Test mail", :body => "Test mail body")
end
end
What I would like to do is run
TestMailer::deliver_test_email
in the console and get the details or run
TestMailer::deliver_test_email.deliver
to send a test email
but all i get is :
NameError: uninitialized constant Object::TestMailer
I have included actionmailer in the Gemfile and its also in the Gemfile.lock
I am sure it is something straight forward for an experienced Ruby dev, but I am struggling could anyone help me please?
Thanks
After a few hours of testing and research I ended up using Mail instead, this was my final code which when run works fine, I hope it helps anyone who is having the same issues as I was :)
require 'mail'
Mail.defaults do
delivery_method :smtp, { :address => "smtp.sendgrid.net",
:port => 587,
:domain => "MY_DOMAIN",
:user_name => "USER_NAME",
:password => "PASSWORD",
:authentication => 'plain',
:enable_starttls_auto => true }
end
mail = Mail.deliver do
to 'EMAIL'
from 'Your Name <NAME#MY_DOMAIN>'
subject 'This is the subject of your email'
text_part do
body 'hello world in text'
end
html_part do
content_type 'text/html; charset=UTF-8'
body '<b>hello world in HTML</b>'
end
end

Ruby: Resque queues instantly

I have the following code. Its job to is to send an email based on data given through the browser (using Sinatra). It sends an email to the address given after 20 seconds. When I run the program, It instantly sends the email, without waiting for the time. Can anyone help me out with this issue.
require 'rubygems'
require 'sinatra'
require 'pony'
require 'resque'
require 'resque_scheduler'
require 'active_support/time'
Resque.redis = 'localhost:6379'
Resque::Scheduler.dynamic = true
def sendMail
Pony.mail({
:to => 'eldurotaduro#gmail.com',
:via => :smtp,
:via_options => {
:address => 'smtp.gmail.com',
:port => '587',
:enable_starttls_auto => true,
:user_name => 'EMAIL',
:password => 'PASSWD',
:authentication => :plain, # :plain, :login, :cram_md5, no auth by default
:domain => "localhost.localdomain" # the HELO domain provided by the client to the server
},
:body => 'roar'
})
end
class Roar
def self.queue; :app; end
end
class ChildJob
#message
#email
def setMess(mes)
#message = mes
end
def setMail(mail)
#email = mail
end
def self.queue; :app; sendMail; end
def self.perform
Pony.mail({
:to => 'eldurotaduro#gmail.com',
:via => :smtp,
:via_options => {
:address => 'smtp.gmail.com',
:port => '587',
:enable_starttls_auto => true,
:user_name => 'EMAILHERE#gmail.com',
:password => 'PASSWD',
:authentication => :plain, # :plain, :login, :cram_md5, no auth by default
:domain => "localhost.localdomain" # the HELO domain provided by the client to the server
},
:body => 'HAHAH'
})
end
end
get '/:email/:message/:time' do
email = params[:email]
message = params[:message]
time = params[:time]
time = time.to_i
Resque.enqueue_in(20.seconds, ChildJob)
end
Keep the :app symbol in self.queue as that's what sets the default queue (see this StackOverflow answer). Put the sendMail into a self.perform method, as that's the thing you want done when the schedule is met. e.g.
def self.queue
:app
end
def self.perform
sendMail
end

How do I create a email confirmation?

I'm trying to make a simple email notification when a user signs up.
My user sign up works fine, and I followed the "Sending Email" tutorial exactly but can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong?
user_controller.rb
class Admin::UsersController < InheritedResources::Base
before_filter :admin_only
actions :index, :show, :new, :edit, :create, :update, :destroy
respond_to :html
# def new
# #user = User.new(:invitation_token => params[:invitation_token])
# #user.email = #user.invitation.recipient_email
# end
def create
#user = User.new(params[:user])
UserMailer.deliver_registration_confirmation(#user) < -- where I added the mailer
#user.save(false)
respond_to do |format|
format.html{ redirect_to admin_users_path}
end
end
private
def collection
paginate_options ||= {}
paginate_options[:page] ||= (params[:page] || 1)
paginate_options[:per_page] ||= (params[:per_page] || 20)
#search = User.search(params[:search])
#users ||= #search.all.paginate(paginate_options)
end
end
environments/production.rb
# Settings specified here will take precedence over those in config/environment.rb
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'alpine.totaline.com' }
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
# set delivery method to :smtp, :sendmail or :test
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
# these options are only needed if you choose smtp delivery
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:address => 'smtp.gmail.com',
:port => 25,
:domain => 'alpine.totaline.com',
:authentication => :login,
:user_name => 'emailname#gmail.com',
:password => 'thepassword'
}
models/user_mailer.rb
class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def registration_confirmation(user)
recipients user.email
from "webmaster#alpinechallenge.com"
subject "Thank you for Registering"
body "You are now registered on the Alpine Challenge!"
end
end
Looks like for Gmail you need to use port 587:
# these options are only needed if you choose smtp delivery
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:address => 'smtp.gmail.com',
:port => '587',
:domain => 'alpine.totaline.com',
:authentication => :login,
:user_name => 'emailname#gmail.com',
:password => 'thepassword'
}
This page contains notes about configuring mail clients for usage with Gmail.
