Django dynamic SMTP

Configure email configuration in the admin.

Usage

1. Install with pip install django-dynamic-smtp

2. Add dynamic_smtp and some dependencies to INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...,
    "django_object_actions",
    "tinymce",
    "dynamic_smtp",
]

3. Configure your email backend:

EMAIL_BACKEND = (
    "django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend"
    if DEBUG
    else "dynamic_smtp.email.DynamicSMPTEmailBackend"
)

TINYMCE_DEFAULT_CONFIG = {
    "theme": "silver",
    "height": 600,
    "width": 700,
    "resize": "both",

    "help,wordcount",
    "license_key": "gpl",
}

See django-tinymce's documentation for more options.

6. Access you admin and configure your SMTP settings

Customize model admin

1. Don't let our app register the default model admin:

# settings.py

...
DYNAMIC_SMPT_REGISTER_ADMIN = False
DYNAMIC_SMPT_REGISTER_MODEL = False

2. Register your custom admin

# myapp/models.py

from dynamic_smtp.models import AbstractEmailConfiguration

class EmailConfiguration(AbstractEmailConfiguration):
    pass

# myapp/admin.py

from django.contrib import admin
from dynamic_smtp.models import AbstractEmailConfiguration

from .models import Emailconfiguration


@admin.register(EmailConfiguration)
class CustomModelAdmin(EmailConfigurationAdmin):
    class Media:
        css = {"all": ["myapp/style.css"]}
