Flask Mail Template Tester

This package provides a faster way to inject data into flask mail templates and send them to a recipient for testing.

Setup

• pip install flask-mail-template-tester
• pip freeze > requirements.txt

using environment variables (recommended)

• export TEMPLATE_DATA_FILE="path/to/some/data.py"
  • note: the default data file is set to look at the current working directory + /templates/test_data.py. This is meant to allow you to write a script to test all your templates with one central and standard set of data.
• export TEMPLATE_EMAIL="my-email@gmail.com"
• flask template-test name-of-template.html

using cli arguments

• flask template-test name-of-template.html -d "path/to/some/data.py" -e "my-email@gmail.com"
