Usage Example

Import the package

import quipus as qp

Fetch data from CSV and generate PDFs

template_manager = (
    qp.TemplateManager()
    .from_csv("data/data_source.csv")
    .with_template(qp.Template("templates/pdf_template.html"))
    .decide_filename_with(lambda data: f"{data['name']}")
    .to_pdf(output_path="output", create_dir=True)
)

Set up SMTP configuration

Note: These can be set up as environment variables for security reasons.

smtp_config = qp.SMTPConfig(
    server="smtp.server.com",
    port=587,
    username="username",
    password="password",
    use_tls=True,
)
email_sender = qp.EmailSender(smtp_config)

Send emails with attachments

for item in template_manager.data:
    smtp_message = (
        qp.EmailMessageBuilder(
            from_address="[e-mail]", 
            to_addresses=[item["email"], "[e-mail]"]
        )
        .with_body_path("templates/email_body_template.html", "html", item)
        .with_subject("Your email subject")
        .add_attachment_from_path(f"output/{item['name']}.pdf")
        .build()
    )
    email_sender.send(smtp_message)

This is a simple example of how you can use Quipus to fetch data from a CSV file, generate PDFs using a template, and send emails with the generated PDFs as attachments.
