Mail

Ferris provides a couple of lightweight wrapper functions around the App Engine Mail API for sending emails.

ferris3.mail.send(recipient, subject, body, sender=None, reply_to=None, **kwargs)

Sends an html email to recipient with the given subject and body.

If sender is none, it’s automatically set to settings['email_sender'], If the setting is not configured, then the default noreply@[appid].appspotmail.com is used.

Any additionally arguments are passed to mail.send_mail, such as headers.

ferris3.mail.send_template(recipient, subject, template_name, context=None, theme=None, **kwargs)

Renders a template using render() and sends an email in the same way as send().

For example:

mail.send_template(
    recipient='jondoe@example.com',
    subject='A Test Email',
    template_name='app/email/test.html',
    context={
        'name': 'George'
    }
)

Would render the template app/email/test.html and email the rendered html.
