mailgun library for ruby

Mailgun rubygem

This gem allows for idiomatic Mailgun usage from within ruby. Mailgun is a kickass email-as-a-service that lets you use email as if it made sense. Check it out at http://mailgun.net

Mailgun exposes the following resources:

• Sending email
• Mailing Lists
• Mailing List Members
• Mailboxes
• Routes
• Log
• Stats
• Messages
• Bounces
• Unsubscribes
• Complaints
• Domain management

Patches are welcome (and easy!).

Sending mail using ActionMailer

If you simply want to send mail using Mailgun, just set the smtp settings in the Rails application like the following. Replace wherever necessary in the following snippet :)

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
  :port           => 587, 
  :address        => 'smtp.mailgun.org',
  :user_name      => '[e-mail]',
  :password       => 'mailgun-smtp-password',
  :domain         => 'your.mailgun.domain',
  :authentication => :plain,
}
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp

Usage

We mimic the ActiveRecord-style interface.

# Initialize your Mailgun object:
Mailgun.configure do |config|
  config.api_key = 'your-api-key'

# or alternatively:
@mailgun = Mailgun(:api_key => 'your-api-key')
