I am trying to send xls file via ActionMailer.
mailer = ActionMailer::Base.mail(:to => "reciever#gmail.com", :from => "sender#gmail.com", :content_type=>"application/vnd.ms-excel", :body=> '')
mailer.attachments['filename.xls']= {mime_type: 'application/vnd.ms-excel', content: File.read("filePath.xls")}
mailer.deliver!
I am able to receive the mail as well.
But somehow the attachment is not correct, it shows up as noname and below is the content I get in the file (I am copy pasting the exact contents)

I am sure I am missing something simple, I am unable to figure out what. Can someone help?
Try this:--
mailer = ActionMailer::Base.mail(:to => "reciever#gmail.com", :from => "sender#gmail.com", :content_type=>"application/vnd.ms-excel", :body=> '')
mailer.attachments["filename.xls"]= File.read("filePath.xls")
mailer.deliver!

I have a Mailer class which inherits from ApplicationMailer, which in turn inherits from ActionMailer::Base. Ruby version is ruby 2.4.1p111 (2017-03-22 revision 58053) [x86_64-darwin15].
The Mailer class looks like the following:
class PurchaseOrderStatusMailer < ApplicationMailer
CONTACTS = {
JC: ['me#example.com'],
RM: ['me#example.com']
}
def daily_report_email(facility)
#facility = facility
ingredient_items = LineItem.ingredient.by_facility(facility)
#delivered_count = ingredient_items.by_date([7.days.ago, 7.days.from_now]).delivered.count
#partial_count = ingredient_items.by_date([7.days.ago, 1.day.ago]).partial.count
#late_count = ingredient_items.by_date([7.days.ago, 1.day.ago]).late.count
#expected_count = ingredient_items.by_date([Date.today, 7.days.from_now]).expected.count
mail(to: CONTACTS[facility.to_sym], subject: "#{facility} Daily Receipt Status - #{Date.today}")
end
end
ApplicationMailer looks like the following:
# frozen_string_literal: true
class ApplicationMailer < ActionMailer::Base
default from: 'notify#example.com'
def facility_email(facility)
emails = Rails.application.config_for(:emails)
(emails[facility] + emails["DEFAULT"]).flatten
end
end
The view is located at app/views/purchase_order_status_mailer/daily_report_email.html.erb.
When I open my Rails console and type PurchaseOrderStatusMailer.new.daily_report_email('JC').deliver, I see the following error:
NoMethodError: undefined method `empty?' for nil:NilClass
from /Users/me/.rbenv/versions/2.4.1/lib/ruby/gems/2.4.0/gems/actionview-5.0.4/lib/action_view/lookup_context.rb:215:in `normalize_name'
I tried passing a format block to the call to the mail helper with the same call, like so:
mail(to: CONTACTS[facility.to_sym], subject: "#{facility} Daily Receipt Status - #{Date.today}") do |format|
format.text { render plain: "Hey!" }
end
The above produced the following response, which appears to represent a successful email send:

Hey!
=> #<Mail::Message:70191029273300, Multipart: false, Headers: <Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2017 12:55:11 -0400>, <From: notify#example.com>, <To: ["me#example.com"]>, <Message-ID: <59c934efec401_1115b3fd69cc3f840917be#me-MBP.mail>>, <Subject: JC Daily Receipt Status - 2017-09-25>, <Mime-Version: 1.0>, <Content-Type: text/plain>, <Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit>>
I didn't actually receive an email, and I assume that means I don't have SMTP set up on my local machine, but the above response is encouraging. There was no stack trace apart from the error I posted above, so I tried digging into the Rails source code, and I saw that normalize_name inside lookup_context.rb gets called from within the args_for_lookup protected method, which in turn gets called by the ViewPaths module's find_all method. But beyond that it was hard to trace the call stack, as I couldn't find who the caller of find_all is.
My question is: what is wrong with the first call to mail?
EDIT 1: I also tried format.html { render html: "<h1>Hello Mikel!</h1>".html_safe } instead of the format.text option, as per the example here, and I got a similar success message.
I then tried adding a byebug statement inside normalize_name, to try and identify what the values of the parameters were on the successful email sends, but it looks like this method isn't getting called when a block is passed. That makes me suspect even more strongly that the problem is somehow related to my views. But I can't confirm that yet.
The issue is here
PurchaseOrderStatusMailer.new.daily_report_email('JC').deliver
remove the new i.e
PurchaseOrderStatusMailer.daily_report_email('JC').deliver
Because of the wrong object of its not able to deduce the template path/file
I was able to generate a success response (including my mailer's rendered template file) by passing template_path and template_name options to the original call to the mail helper, like so:
mail(
to: CONTACTS[facility.to_sym],
subject: "#{facility} Daily Receipt Status - #{Date.today}",
template_path: 'purchase_order_status_mailer',
template_name: 'daily_report_email')
This generated the following success response:

I'm a little confused about why I had to add these options, as the documentation doesn't make it clear that these are required and my templates and folders appear to be named correctly, but it worked and I have deadlines so I'm moving on. :-)
I want to send a mail with an attached image and embed this image in html. As a source for tag , What should I write and is there any missing header parts such a content_type ?
When I am doing real test, I send to a mail to my gmail account. I can see there is an attachment with name "unnamed" and I could not display image even when I download.
Gem: Pony
require 'pony'
Pony.override_options = { :via => :test }
Pony.mail(
:to => 'foo#bar',
:from => 'abc#abc.com',
:subject => 'test123',
:body => "<h1><strong>Dear X, check the newsletter ,<br></strong></h1> <img src='attached image' />",
:attachments => {"happy_image.jpg" => File.read("happy_image.jpg")}
)

You should be able to BASE64 encode the image, and use the resulting string as the src of the img tag.
For example:
<img src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAWQAAAD8CAYAAAB..."/>
Also make sure that your content type is set as text/html instead of text/plain. Looking at the mail, it seems that it's set to the latter, hence why images don't render and tags render as text. Add the following to your arguments to use text/html content type:
:headers => { 'Content-Type' => 'text/html' }
I am migrating an application from Rails 2.3 to Rails 3.1, the emails are not working, when i send an email with attachment i see a plain/text email with the encoded pdf content in the email instead of as an attachment.
here is the command i used to send email
ret = UserMailer.return_forms(#customer[:email], #store, id, #customer[:document]).deliver
here is the definition of returns_form, the return_forms is a method in UserMailer class (class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base)
def return_forms(email, store, order, pdf_document_path)
load_smtp_settings("noreply")
#recipients = email
#subject = "#{business_name}: Return forms"
#body = "Please follow the instructions within the forms to return your merchandise. Thank You."
attachments['free_book.pdf'] = {mime_type: 'application/pdf',content: File.read(pdf_document_path) }
#from = email
#date = Time.zone.now
#headers = {}
end
I see the content as

The return_forms call should have a call for mail() method at the end. Something like:
mail(:from => your_from, :to => your_to, :subject => your_subject, :body => your_body)
It is also a good idea to enable mailer errors in your development.rb to see if any errors appear:
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
I have a rails application that is using Amazon SES service to send information emails to customers. In development environment this email functionality is working ok. However, when I run my application in my EC2 instance the emails are not sent anymore.
I have checked the logs, and everything looks good:

I have checked business#yanpy.com is a verified sender email address. I even have sent a test email from SES console from business#yanpy.com to cliente.yanpy#gmail.com and the email is sent and received.
However, when I send these emails programatically, everything looks good, but the emails are not received.
I fixed it. I have realized I was missing my smtp configuration for my test environment in Rails.
I added:
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:address => "email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com",
:user_name => "************", # Your SMTP user here.
:password => "*************", # Your SMTP password here.
:authentication => :login,
:enable_starttls_auto => true
}
to my environments/test.rb config file in Rails and it worked.
So, we have just upgraded our project to Rails 3.0.17 (please don't ask why this particular version, just happened so) on top of Ruby 1.8.7 enterprise edition.
I have methods to generate CSV data and send it as a file via email.
# contact_mailer.rb
def send_payments_report
attachments["report.csv"] = {
:content => Payment.generate_csv_report,
:mime_type => "text/csv"
}
mail(
:from => "from#example.com",
:subject => "Payments report",
:to => "to#example.com"
)
end
Here's what it returns:
=> #<Mail::Message:2231891440, Multipart: true, Headers: <Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2012 11:48:05 +0200>, <From: from#example.com>, <To: to#example.com>, <Message-ID: <50d18d555dcdc_2269838ab93812784#artem.local.mail>>, <Subject: Payments report>, <Mime-Version: 1.0>, <Content-Type: multipart/mixed; >, <Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit>>
The email itself is displayed as plain text without attachments:

I tried attaching existing file, but it displays it the same way. It worked perfectly on Rails 2.3.9. Can anyone help on that?
I seem to have solved this problem.
Here how I call the mail method:
mail(
:from => "from#example.com",
:subject => "Payments report",
:to => "to#example.com"
) do |format|
format.text {render :text => ""}
end
