NAME Emailesque - Lightweight To-The-Point Email VERSION version 1.200002 SYNOPSIS use Emailesque; email { to => '...', from => '...', subject => '...', message => '...', }; DESCRIPTION Emailesque provides an easy way of handling text or html email messages with or without attachments. Simply define how you wish to send the email, thencall the email keyword passing the necessary parameters as outlined above. This module is basically a wrapper around the email interface Email::Stuffer. The following is an example of the object-oriented interface: use Emailesque; Emailesque->new->send({ to => '...', from => '...', subject => '...', message => '...', attach => [ '/path/to/file' => 'filename' ] }); The default email format is plain-text, this can be changed to html by setting the option 'type' to 'html'. The following are options that can be passed within the hashref of arguments to the keyword, constructor and/or the send method: # send message to to => $email_recipient # send messages from from => $mail_sender # email subject subject => 'email subject line' # message body message => 'html or plain-text data' message => { text => $text_message, html => $html_messase, # type must be 'multi' } # email message content type type => 'text' type => 'html' type => 'multi' # carbon-copy other email addresses cc => 'user@site.com' cc => 'user_a@site.com, user_b@site.com, user_c@site.com' cc => join ', ', @email_addresses # blind carbon-copy other email addresses bcc => 'user@site.com' bcc => 'user_a@site.com, user_b@site.com, user_c@site.com' bcc => join ', ', @email_addresses # specify where email responses should be directed reply_to => 'other_email@website.com' # attach files to the email # set attechment name to null to use the filename attach => [ $file_location => $attachment_name, ] # send additional (specialized) headers headers => { "X-Mailer" => "SPAM-THE-WORLD-BOT 1.23456789" } ADDITIONAL EXAMPLES # Handle Email Failures my $msg = email { to => '...', subject => '...', message => $msg, attach => [ '/path/to/file' => 'filename' ] }; die $msg unless $msg; # Add More Email Headers email { to => '...', subject => '...', message => $msg, headers => { "X-Mailer" => 'SPAM-THE-WORLD-BOT 1.23456789', "X-Accept-Language" => 'en' } }; # Send Text and HTML Email together email { to => '...', subject => '...', type => 'multi', message => { text => $txt, html => $html, } }; # Send mail via SMTP with SASL authentication { ..., driver => 'smtp', host => 'smtp.googlemail.com', user => 'account@gmail.com', pass => '****' } # Send mail to/from Google (gmail) { ..., ssl => 1, driver => 'smtp', host => 'smtp.googlemail.com', port => 465, user => 'account@gmail.com', pass => '****' } # Send mail to/from Google (gmail) using TLS { ..., tls => 1, driver => 'smtp', host => 'smtp.googlemail.com', port => 587, user => 'account@gmail.com', pass => '****' } # Debug email server communications, prints negotiation to STDOUT { ..., debug => 1 } # Set headers to be issued with message { ..., from => '...', subject => '...', headers => { 'X-Mailer' => 'MyApp 1.0', 'X-Accept-Language' => 'en' } } # Send email using sendmail, path is optional { ..., driver => 'sendmail', path => '/usr/bin/sendmail', } AUTHOR Al Newkirk COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2010 by Al Newkirk.
