mount Courrier::Engine => "/courrier"

Usage

Send emails

OrderEmail.deliver to: "recipient@example.com"

Deliver later via ActiveJob

OrderEmail.deliver_later to: "recipient@example.com"

Configure queue options in the email class:

class OrderEmail < Courrier::Email
  enqueue queue: "emails", wait: 5.minutes

  def subject = "Your order is ready!"
  # …
end

Inbox provider

Preview emails in your browser:

# config/initializers/courrier.rb
Courrier.configure do |config|
  config.email = { provider: "inbox" }
end

Enable auto-open:

config.email = { provider: "inbox" }
config.inbox.auto_open = true

Clear inbox files:

bin/rails courrier:clear

URL helpers

Rails Courrier automatically includes Rails URL helpers in your email classes:
