In my ROR app, I am trying to send confirmation emails to my registered users when they signup, my website is on localhost currently. I am getting this error:
"undefined method `recipients' for #<UserMailer:0x3d841a0>"
Here is my code;
development.rb
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => "localhost:3000"}
config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => "587",
:authentication => :login,
:user_name => "myemailid@gmail.com",
:password => "myrealpassword"
}
Users_controller.rb
def new
UserMailer.registration_confirmation(@user).deliver
end
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user])
if @user.save
UserMailer.registration_confirmation(@user).deliver
sign_in @user
flash[:success] = "Welcome!"
redirect_to @user
else
render 'new'
end
end
user_mailer.rb
class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def registration_confirmation(user)
recipients user.email
from "myemailid@gmail.com"
subject "Thank you for registration"
body :user => user
end
end
** development.rb**
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :sendmail
config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = true
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true
** Users_controller.rb **
def new
UserMailer.registration_confirmation(@user).deliver
end
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user])
if @user.save
UserMailer.registration_confirmation(@user).deliver
sign_in @user
flash[:success] = "Welcome!"
redirect_to @user
else
render 'new'
end
end
** User_mailer.rb **
def registration_confirmation(user)
@message = 'whatever you want to say here!'
mail(:from => "myemailid@gmail.com", :to => user.email, :subject => "Thank you for registration")
end
**/app/views/user_mailer/registration_confirmation.text.erb *
<%= @message %>
That's what I've done in my development mode, and it works
What version of Rails are you using?
Sending of email changed in version 3.2 (I believe)
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionMailer/Base.html
Try:
UserMailer.registration_confirmation(@user).deliver
This is your user_mailer.rb
user_mailer.rb
class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
def registration_confirmation(user)
recipients user.email
from "myemailid@gmail.com"
subject "Thank you for registration"
body :user => user
end
Try instead:
class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
default from: "myemailid@gmail.com"
def registration_confirmation(user)
mail(to: user.email, subject: "Thank you for registration")
end
end
And set up the appropriate view in views/user_mailer e.g. registration_confirmation.html.erb
