mail-service

Send reports via mail

This microservice works on port 5003.

First setup

Export the mail variables and the address and the port of the data-service microservice, the default is 127.0.0.1:5002.

A smart way to do this is to create a file variables.sh in the project root, as follows.

#!/bin/bash
export MAIL_USERNAME=<GMAIL-USERNAME>
export MAIL_PASSWORD=<SECRET>
export DATA_SERVICE="127.0.0.1:5002"

You can load the variables with source variables.sh.

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install pytest pytest-cov
python setup.py develop
