How to use
Provide your SMTP server settings, e.g. for fastmail
cfg = dict(EMAIL_HOST='smtp.fastmail.com', EMAIL_PORT=465,
EMAIL_HOST_USER='[email protected]', EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD='XXX', EMAIL_USE_SSL=True)Alternately you can put your server settings in mail_settings.py. There's an example settings file in the repo.
Provide your email details
from_addr = get_addr('[email protected]', 'Jeremy Howard')
to_addrs = [get_addr('[email protected]', 'Douglas Adams'),
get_addr('[email protected]', 'John Cleese')]
inserts = [{'special': "Thanks for all the fish."},
{'special': "That was a silly walk."}]
msg = """## Hello there!
Here is your special message: *{special}*"""ml = MarkdownMerge(to_addrs, from_addr, 'A message', msg=msg, inserts=inserts)Optionally, enable test mode to just print the messages, instead of sending them.
ml.set_test(True)Send your messages
ml.send_msgs()Credits
All the hard work is done by Django mail, python-markdown, and python. So thanks to the authors of those projects!
