Kinto emailer plugin
Project description
kinto-emailer send emails when some events arise (e.g. new records have been created). It relies on Pyramid Mailer for the sending part.
Install
pip install kinto-emailer
Setup
In the Kinto settings:
kinto.includes = kinto_emailer
mail.default_sender = kinto@restmail.net
# mail.host = localhost
# mail.port = 25
# mail.username = None
# mail.password = None
# mail.tls = False
# mail.queue_path = None
If mail.queue_path is set, the emails are storage in a local Maildir queue.
See more details about Pyramid Mailer configuration.
Validate configuration
The following command will send a dummy email to the specified recipient or will fail if the configuration is not correct:
$ kinto-send-email config/kinto.ini testemailer@restmail.net
Development
Use a fake emailer that write emails files to disk:
mail.debug_mailer = true
How does it work?
Some information — like monitored action or list of recipients — are defined in the collection or the bucket metadata. When an event occurs, the plugin sends emails if one of the expected condition is met.
Usage
The metadata on the collection (or the bucket) must look like this:
{
"kinto-emailer": {
"hooks": [{
"template": "Something happened!",
"recipients": ['Security reviewers <security-reviews@mozilla.com>']
}]
}
}
In the above example, every action on the collection metadata or any record in that collection will trigger an email notification.
The metadata of the collection override the bucket metadata, they are not merged.
Optional:
subject (e.g. "An action was performed")
sender (e.g. "Kinto team <developers@kinto-storage.org>")
Recipients
The list of recipients can either contain:
Email adresses (eg. alice@wonderland.com or "Joe Doe <jon@doe.com>")
Group URI (eg. /buckets/staging/groups/reviewers)
With group URIs, the email recipients will be expanded with the group members principals look like email addresses (eg. ldap:peace@world.org).
Selection
It is possible to define several hooks, and filter on some condition. For example:
{
"kinto-emailer": {
"hooks": [{
"resource_name": "record",
"action": "create",
"template": "Record created!",
"recipients": ['Security reviewers <security-reviews@mozilla.com>']
}, {
"resource_name": "collection",
"action": "updated",
"template": "Collection updated!",
"recipients": ["Security reviewers <security-reviews@mozilla.com>"]
}]
}
}
The possible filters are:
resource_name: record or collection (default: all)
action: create, update, delete (default: all)
collection_id (default: all)
record_id (default: all)
event: kinto.core.events.AfterResourceChanged (default), or kinto_remote_settings.signer.events.ReviewRequested, kinto_remote_settings.signer.events.ReviewApproved, kinto_remote_settings.signer.events.ReviewRejected
If a filter value starts with the special character ^, then the matching will consider the filter value to be a regular expression.
For example, in order to exclude a specific collection_id, set the filter value to: ^(?!normandy-recipes$).
Template
The template string can have placeholders:
bucket_id
id: record or collection id
user_id
resource_name
uri
action
timestamp
root_url
client_address
user_agent
settings[name]
For example:
{user_id} has {action}d a {resource_name} in {bucket_id}.
Running the tests
To run the unit tests:
$ make tests
For the functional tests, run a Kinto instance in a separate terminal:
$ make run-kinto
And start the test suite:
$ make functional
