MJML-Haml

Build Status Gem Version

MJML-Haml allows you to render HTML e-mails from a MJML template.

An example layout might look like:

/ app/views/layouts/user_mailer.html.mjml
%mjml
  %mj-body
    %mj-container
      %mj-section{ background: { color: '#222' }, padding: '10px' }
        %mj-column{ width: '30%' }
          %mj-image{ alt: 'fnix', href: root_url, src: image_url('my-logo.png') }
        %mj-column{ width: '30%' }
        %mj-column{ width: '40%' }
          %mj-social{ 'base-url': '/images/mailer/', display: 'facebook:url google:url linkedin:url twitter:url',
            'facebook-content': '', 'facebook-href': 'https://www.facebook.com/Fnix-804357709655741/',
            'facebook-icon-color': 'transparent', 'google-content': '',
            'google-href': 'https://plus.google.com/+FnixBr', 'google-icon-color': 'transparent', 'icon-size': '32px',
            'linkedin-content': '', 'linkedin-href': 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/fnix',
            'linkedin-icon-color': 'transparent', 'twitter-content': '', 'twitter-href': 'https://twitter.com/fnixbr',
            'twitter-icon-color': 'transparent' }
      %mj-section{ 'text-align': 'left' }
        = yield
      %mj-section{ 'background-color': '#E5E5E5', padding: '10px 0' }
        %mj-text{ 'font-size': '11px', 'line-height': '15px' }
          My awesome footer

And the template for an action:

/ app/views/user_mailer/password.html.haml
%mj-text
  %h2 Password
%mj-text
  %p{style: 'text-align: justify;'}
    == You sign up with #{provider_to_name @user.identities.first.try(:provider)}, so we generate a password for you:
%mj-button= @password
%mj-text
  %p
    == You need this password to change your #{link_to 'account', edit_user_registration_url} details. Do you want to
    change this cryptic password, no problem::
%mj-button{ href: edit_user_registration_url } Change Password

Note that the layout is named .html.mjml and the template .html.haml. Why? mjml only output content that are wrapped by:

<mjml>
  <mj-body>
    ...
  </mj-body>
</mjml>

So, for the template we just want to use HAML and for the layout + template we use mjml + haml.

You write your mailer as usual:

# app/mailers/user_mailer.rb
class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
  def password()
    mail(to: 'test@example.com', subject: 'test')
  end
end

Installation

Add it to your Gemfile.

gem 'mjml-haml'

Run the following command to install it:

bundle install

Install the MJML parser (optional -g to install it globally):

npm install -g mjml@^2.0

Deploying with Heroku

To deploy with Heroku you'll need to setup multiple buildpacks so that Heroku first builds Node for MJML and then the Ruby environment for your app.

Once you've installed the Heroku Toolbelt you can setup the buildpacks from the commandline:

$ heroku buildpacks:set heroku/ruby

And then add the Node buildpack to index 1 so it's run first:

$ heroku buildpacks:add --index 1 heroku/nodejs

Check that's all setup by running:

$ heroku buildpacks

Next you'll need to setup a package.json file in the root, something like this:

{
  "name": "your-site",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Now with MJML email templates!",
  "main": "index.js",
  "directories": {
    "doc": "doc",
    "test": "test"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "mjml": "^2.0"
  },
  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "git+https://github.com/your-repo/your-site.git"
  },
  "keywords": [
    "mailer"
  ],
  "author": "Your Name",
  "license": "ISC",
  "bugs": {
    "url": "https://github.com/fnix/mjml-haml/issues"
  },
  "homepage": "https://github.com/fnix/mjml-haml"
}

Then $ git push heroku master and it should Just WorkTM.
