Ruby on Rails library for interfacing with the smtp2go API.

You might not need this gem at all! If you want to use smtp2go's SMTP server directly, simply add the following to your config/environment.rb:

config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = true
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
  address:  'mail.smtp2go.com',
  port: 587,  # alternatively: 2525 or 80
  user_name: '<your smtp2go SMTP username>',
  password: '<your smtp2go SMTP password>',
  authentication: :cram_md5,
  enable_starttls_auto: true
}

And of course, if you're not using Ruby on Rails, we have a Ruby version too.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'smtp2go-rails'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install smtp2go-rails

Here is a short example that will send an email directly from a controller:

require 'smtp2go'

class StaticPagesController < ApplicationController
  def home
    payload = {
      :from => 'dave@example.com',
      :to => ['matt@example.com'],
      :subject => 'Testing the smtp2go Rails Client',
      :body => 'Test message.'
    }
    smtp2go_mailer = Smtp2go::Smtp2goMailer.new
    smtp2go_mailer.mail(payload)
  end
end

You can subclass Smtp2go::Smtp2goMailer and add default values in the usual way:

class DefaultValuesMailer < Smtp2go::Smtp2goMailer
  default :to => ['dave@example.com']
  default :from => 'matt@example.com'
  default :subject => 'Testing the smtp2go Rails Client'
  default :body => 'Test message'
end

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
