== Usage
I've rewritten most of Edmond's great work in this version. I now override path_to_image instead of image_tag because a big reason for all the Rails2 breakages was because image_tag was basically reproduced in previous versions, so broke when that method changed.
Now we override the very simple path_to_image, and most importantly we really just add our own stuff for ActionMailer templates, and resort to the existing code for everything else.
I've also integrated in with the new implicit multipart stuff. So now, there is so little code required!
class Notifier < ActionMailer::Base def signup recipients %q{"Testing IA" testing@handle.it} from %q{"Mr Tester" tester@handle.it} subject "Here's a funky test" end end
# Oh yeah baby! Read it and weep! So how's this work? Well, you'll need
# your templates named properly - see the `Multipart email` section of the
# ActionMailer::Base docs.
# signup.text.plain.erb
Your username is: <%= @username %>
<html><head><title>Signup Notification</title></head><body>
<%= image_tag "logo.png" %>
<p>Your username is: <%=h @username %>
</body></html>
That's it! InlineAttachment will look for "#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/images/logo.png" and will do the right thing and embed it inline into the HTML version of the email. ActionMailer will do the right thing and offer the recipient both the text/plain and text/html parts as alternatives.
Note, that you should still be able to use this in the 0.3.0 way if you have code that uses that. But there were a lot of alternatives, and the examples in here didn't show a crucial step of shuffling the parts around to be sure that the image parts came after the html.
You can also do the old "manual" method if you want.
