Catalyst::View::Email:UserpContributed Perl Catalyst::View::Email::Template(3)

NAME
       Catalyst::View::Email::Template - Send Templated Email from Catalyst

SYNOPSIS
       Sends templated mail, based upon your default view. It captures the
       output of the rendering path, slurps in based on mime-types and
       assembles a multi-part email using Email::MIME::Creator and sends it
       out.

CONFIGURATION
       WARNING: since version 0.10 the configuration options slightly changed!

       Use the helper to create your view:

	   $ script/myapp_create.pl view Email::Template Email::Template

       For basic configuration look at "CONFIGURATION" in
       Catalyst::View::Email.

       In your app configuration (example in YAML):

	   View::Email::Template:
	       # Optional prefix to look somewhere under the existing configured
	       # template  paths.
	       # Default: none
	       template_prefix: email
	       # Define the defaults for the mail
	       default:
		   # Defines the default view used to render the templates.
		   # If none is specified neither here nor in the stash
		   # Catalysts default view is used.
		   # Warning: if you don't tell Catalyst explicit which of your views should
		   # be its default one, C::V::Email::Template may choose the wrong one!
		   view: TT

SENDING EMAIL
       Sending email works just like for Catalyst::View::Email but by
       specifying the template instead of the body and forwarding to your
       Email::Template view:

	   sub controller : Private {
	       my ( $self, $c ) = @_;

	       $c->stash->{email} = {
		   to	       => 'jshirley@gmail.com',
		   cc	       => 'abraxxa@cpan.org',
		   bcc	       => 'hidden@secret.com hidden2@foobar.com',
		   from	       => 'no-reply@foobar.com',
		   subject     => 'I am a Catalyst generated email',
		   template    => 'test.tt',
		   content_type => 'multipart/alternative'
	       };

	       $c->forward( $c->view('Email::Template') );
	   }

       Alternatively if you want more control over your templates you can use
       the following idiom to override the defaults. If charset and encoding
       given, the body become properly encoded.

	   templates => [
	       {
		   template	   => 'email/test.html.tt',
		   content_type	   => 'text/html',
		   charset	   => 'utf-8',
		   encoding	   => 'quoted-printable',
		   view		   => 'TT',
	       },
	       {
		   template	   => 'email/test.plain.mason',
		   content_type	   => 'text/plain',
		   charset	   => 'utf-8',
		   encoding	   => 'quoted-printable',
		   view		   => 'Mason',
	       }
	   ]

HANDLING ERRORS
       See "HANDLING ERRORS" in Catalyst::View::Email.

METHODS
       generate_part
	   Generates a MIME part to include in the email. Since the email is
	   template based every template piece is a separate part that is
	   included in the email.

       process
	   The process method is called when the view is dispatched to. This
	   creates the multipart message and then sends the message contents
	   off to Catalyst::View::Email for processing, which in turn hands
	   off to Email::Sender::Simple.

TODO
   ATTACHMENTS
       There needs to be a method to support attachments.  What I am thinking
       is something along these lines:

	   attachments => [
	       # Set the body to a file handle object, specify content_type and
	       # the file name. (name is what it is sent at, not the file)
	       { body => $fh, name => "foo.pdf", content_type => "application/pdf" },
	       # Or, specify a filename that is added, and hey, encoding!
	       { filename => "foo.gif", name => "foo.gif", content_type => "application/pdf", encoding => "quoted-printable" },
	       # Or, just a path to a file, and do some guesswork for the content type
	       "/path/to/somefile.pdf",
	   ]
