<em>An elegant MIME mail library with support for attachments</em>
</p>
<br /><br /><br />
A simple, easy to use email library for Go (golang).
- Full attachment support (attach anything that implements `io.Reader`)
- Send to multiple addresses at the same time, including BCC addresses.
- Supports composing multi-part messages (HTML and plain text emails for older
clients)
- Write templates directly to the email body (implements `io.Writer` for
convenience)
- Production ready - several million emails sent in a production environment
- SMTP over TLS support, with automatic STARTTLS upgrades for plaintext
connections
# Installation
If you're using `go mod`:
```bash
go get -v github.com/domodwyer/mailyak/v3
```
Or with `GOPATH`:
```bash
go get -v github.com/domodwyer/mailyak
```
# Usage
```Go
// Create a new email - specify the SMTP host:port and auth (if needed)
mail := mailyak.New("mail.host.com:25", smtp.PlainAuth("", "user", "pass", "mail.host.com"))
mail.To("dom@itsallbroken.com")
mail.From("jsmith@example.com")
mail.FromName("Bananas for Friends")
mail.Subject("Business proposition")
// mail.HTML() and mail.Plain() implement io.Writer, so you can do handy things like
// parse a template directly into the email body
if err := t.ExecuteTemplate(mail.HTML(), "htmlEmail", data); err != nil {
panic(" 💣 ")
}
// Or set the body using a string setter
mail.Plain().Set("Get a real email client")
// And you're done!
if err := mail.Send(); err != nil {
panic(" 💣 ")
}
```
To send an attachment:
```Go
mail := mailyak.New("mail.host.com:25", smtp.PlainAuth("", "user", "pass", "mail.host.com"))
mail.To("dom@itsallbroken.com")
mail.From("oops@itsallbroken.com")
mail.Subject("I am a teapot")
mail.HTML().Set("Don't panic")
// input can be a bytes.Buffer, os.File, os.Stdin, etc.
// call multiple times to attach multiple files
mail.Attach("filename.txt", &input)
if err := mail.Send(); err != nil {
panic(" 💣 ")
}
```
# Notes
- Why "MailYak"? Because "MailyMcMailFace" is annoyingly long to type.
- You can use a single instance of mailyak to send multiple emails after
changing the to/body/whatever fields, avoiding unnecessary allocation/GC
pressure.
- Attachments are read when you call `Send()` to prevent holding onto multiple
copies of the attachment in memory (source and email) - this means changing
the attachment data between calling `Attach()` and `Send()` will change what's
emailed out!
- For your own sanity you should vendor this, and any other libraries when going
into production.
### Maintenance Status
This library is fully maintained.
The (relatively) small API/scope and many years spent maturing means it doesn't
receive frequent code changes any more. Bug fixes are definitely accepted (and
appreciated!), and you can consider this a stable and maintained library.
