A Python package for sending emails using AWS SES

Project description

Sessender

Sessender is a Python package for sending emails using Amazon SES. It provides a simple interface for sending plain text and HTML emails, as well as attachments.

Installation

You can install Sessender using pip:

pip install sessender

Usage

To use Sessender, you need to provide your Amazon SES credentials as environment variables:

  • SES_USERNAME: Your Amazon SES SMTP username.
  • SES_PASS: Your Amazon SES SMTP password.
  • SES_HOST: Your Amazon SES SMTP host.
  • SES_PORT: Your Amazon SES SMTP port.
  • EMAIL_RECIPIENT: The recipient email address (optional, can be set when calling send_email).
  • EMAIL_SENDER: The sender email address (optional, can be set when calling send_email).

Then, create a SesSender object with your credentials:

from sessender import SesSender

sender = SesSender()


sender.send_email(
    subject='Hello, world!',
    message='This is a test email from Sessender.',
)

You can also include attachments with your emails by passing a file path to the attachment parameter:

sender.send_email(
    subject='Hello, world!',
    message='This is a test email from Sessender with an attachment.',
    attachment='/path/to/attachment.txt'
)

To send a html email, use the send_email method with the html_message parameter:

sender.send_email(
    subject='Hello, world!',
    html_message='<h1>This is a test email from Sessender in HTML format.</h1>',
)

You can also include attachments with your emails by passing a file path to the attachment parameter:

sender.send_email(
    subject='Hello, world!',
    html_message='This is a test email from Sessender with an attachment.',
    attachment='/path/to/attachment.txt'
)

send_email method parameters

This example demonstrates the usage of all the parameters available in the send_email method.

  • subject (required): A string representing the subject of the email.
  • message (optional): A string containing the plain text content of the email. Use either message or html_message, but not both.
  • html_message (optional): A string containing the HTML content of the email. Use either message or html_message, but not both.
  • attachment (optional): A file path to the attachment you want to include in the email. The attachment should be readable by the script.
  • sender (optional): A string representing the sender's email address. If not provided, the sender will be read from the EMAIL_SENDER environment variable.
