sendgrid_cli_mailer

SendgridCliMailer

This is a simple gem I wrote so I could email from Utility servers or servers without Rails from CLI. I chose Ruby so I wouldn't have to depend on any SMTP deamons,etc.

Thanks @freerobby at https://github.com/freerobby/sendgrid_toolkit for the Ruby API.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'sendgrid_cli_mailer'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install sendgrid_cli_mailer

Usage

Using command line arguments

You can send a message with a body specified via arguments:

sg_mail mail --from '[e-mail]' --to '[e-mail]' --subject 'Testing CLI' --body 'Short Body' --user '[e-mail]' --key '1234'" 

OR use your body input in other ways like so:

sg_mail mail --from '[e-mail]' --to '[e-mail]' --subject 'Testing CLI' --user '[e-mail]' --key '1234'" --body `cat /etc/hosts`

Using less command line arguments

You can save a file called .sg_mail in your home directory and this file can make using a little easier.

~/.sg_mail example:

user: [e-mail]
key: 12351
from: [e-mail]

Then the command line is a little more terse and similar to unix mail:

sg_mail mail -f [e-mail] -t [e-mail] -s "Database Backup complete!" -b "`cat /var/log/db.log`"
