Overview

The ActionMailer::MessageDelivery class is used by ActionMailer::Base when creating a new mailer. MessageDelivery is a wrapper (Delegator subclass) around a lazy created Mail::Message. You can get direct access to the Mail::Message, deliver the email or schedule the email to be sent through Active Job.

Notifier.welcome(User.first)               # an ActionMailer::MessageDelivery object
Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_now   # sends the email
Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_later # enqueue email delivery as a job through Active Job
Notifier.welcome(User.first).message       # a Mail::Message object

#deliver_later(options = {}) ⇒ Object

Enqueues the email to be delivered through Active Job. When the job runs it will send the email using deliver_now.

Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_later
Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_later(wait: 1.hour)
Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_later(wait_until: 10.hours.from_now)

Options:

  • :wait - Enqueue the email to be delivered with a delay.

  • :wait_until - Enqueue the email to be delivered at (after) a specific date / time.

  • :queue - Enqueue the email on the specified queue.

By default, the email will be enqueued using ActionMailer::DeliveryJob. Each ActionMailer::Base class can specify the job to use by setting the class variable delivery_job.

class AccountRegistrationMailer < ApplicationMailer
  self.delivery_job = RegistrationDeliveryJob
end

#deliver_later!(options = {}) ⇒ Object

Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_later!
Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_later!(wait: 1.hour)
Notifier.welcome(User.first).deliver_later!(wait_until: 10.hours.from_now)

Options:

  • :wait - Enqueue the email to be delivered with a delay

  • :wait_until - Enqueue the email to be delivered at (after) a specific date / time

  • :queue - Enqueue the email on the specified queue

By default, the email will be enqueued using ActionMailer::DeliveryJob. Each ActionMailer::Base class can specify the job to use by setting the class variable delivery_job.
