You can use it to send a simple or formulaic email to multiple people and maintain some amount of personalization per person
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'mailmerge'And then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install mailmerge
Example usage:
mailmerge test.csv test.erb [email protected] password
Example email template:
FROM: [email protected]
SUBJECT: <%= foo %>
TO: <%= @to_email %>
<%= bar %>
<%= baz %>
Regards,
Person
Example CSV:
to_email,foo,bar,baz
[email protected],1,2,3
