Email Node Class

The 'email' tree can be queried in the following ways:

# All children elements of a node:
EmailCenterApi::Nodes::EmailNode.all(selector)

# Folders from a node:
EmailCenterApi::Nodes::EmailNode.folders(selector)

# Emails from a node:
EmailCenterApi::Nodes::EmailNode.emails(selector)

where the selector contains an optional parameter to select the parent folder in the form:

{  folder: <folder node id> }

This will return and array of EmailCenterApi::Nodes::EmailNode object.

Email Node Instance

Each email node is a folder it can be queried in the following ways:

node = EmailCenterApi::Nodes::EmailNode.all(selector).first

# All children elements of a node:
node.all

# Folders from a node:
node.folders

# Emails from a node:
node.emails

Alternatively an email node can be triggered to send an email:

node = EmailCenterApi::Nodes::EmailNode.all(selector).first

# All children elements of a node:
node.trigger(<email_address>, <options>)

Where options is a hash containing the relevant profile data for the email. See Maxemail Documentation for more details.
