django-sendgrid 1.0.1

django-sendgrid

django-sendgrid is the easiest way to send e-mail with SendGrid. It uses the SendGrid SMTP API, as recommended.

Although it’s rather simple to use, a example project is included to demonstrate usage.

Installation

To install with PyPi:

pip install django-sendgrid

Usage

Add sendgrid to your INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
        # Existing apps
        "sendgrid",
)

Add the following to your settings:

SENDGRID_EMAIL_HOST = "smtp.sendgrid.net"
SENDGRID_EMAIL_PORT = 587
SENDGRID_EMAIL_USERNAME = "your_sendgrid_username"
SENDGRID_EMAIL_PASSWORD = "your_sendgrid_password"

The API is similar to that of Django’s; create a SendGridEmailMessage and send it:

>>> from sendgrid.message import SendGridEmailMessage
>>> email = SendGridEmailMessage('Subject', 'Body', '[e-mail]', ['[e-mail]'])
>>> email.send()
