require 'gmail-mailer'
email_credentials = 
{
    :smtp_oauth_token=>"<your outh_token>",
    :smtp_oauth_token_secret=>"<your ouath token secret>", 
    :email=>"<your gmail address>"
}

# construct message
message = GmailMailer::Message.new("to", "Hello Subject", "Hello Body")

# add an attachment to the message
message.add_attachment(File.expand_path('~/image.png'))

# construct mailer using the email_credentials defined above
mailer = GmailMailer::Mailer.new(email_credentials)

# send email
mailer.send(message)
   

Contributing to gmail-mailer

• Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
• Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
• Fork the project
• Start a feature/bugfix branch
• Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
• Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
• Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
