Sympa::Message::Template(3Sympa)

✨ NAME ✨

Sympa::Message::Template — mail message generated from template 💌

Okay bestie, this is the module in the Sympa::Message::Template manpage, and it's literally the thing that cooks up a whole mail message out of a template. It's giving "mail glow-up factory." 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Sympa::Message::Template;
my $message = Sympa::Message::Template->new(
    context => $list, template => "name", rcpt => [$email], data => {});

That's the whole vibe right there. Load it, build it, slay. 💅

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

🧚 Methods

new ( context => $that, template => $filename, rcpt => $rcpt, [ data => $data ], [ options... ] )

Constructor energy! ✨ It creates a Sympa::Message object out of a template. No cap.

Parameters:

• context => $that — What it is: a Sympa::List, a robot, or '*'. 🫶
• template => $filename — The template filename (without extension, ok? just the name, the extension is not the moment).
• rcpt => $rcpt — Scalar or arrayref representing the SMTP "RCPT TO:" field. 📮

If it's a scalar, it tries to retrieve information of the user (see also Sympa::User).

• data => $data — A hashref used to parse the template, with keys like:
  • return_path — The SMTP "MAIL FROM:" field if it's sent by SMTP (see Sympa::Mailer), or the "Return-Path:" field if it's sent by spool.

Note: this parameter was OBSOLETED. Currently, the {envelope_sender} attribute of the object is taken from the context. 💀

• to — The "To:" header field.
• lang — The language tag used for parsing the template. See also Sympa::Language. 🌈
• from — The "From:" field, if it's not a full msg.

Note: this parameter was OBSOLETED. The "From:" field will be filled in by the "sympa" address if it isn't found. 🫠

• subject — The "Subject:" field, if it's not a full msg.
• replyto — The "Reply-To:" field, if it's not a full msg.
• body — The body message if $filename is ''.

Note: this feature has been deprecated. 👑

• headers — Additional headers; it's a hashref whose keys are field names.

Below are optional parameters. (yes, the fun ones 😌)

• date => $time — Delivery time of the message. By default, the current time will be used. ⏰
• envelope_sender => $email — Forces setting the envelope sender. '<>' may be used for a null envelope sender.
• priority => $priority — Forces setting priority if specified. 🔥
• tracking => $feature — Forces tracking if specified.

Returns:

A new Sympa::Message instance — or undef if something went wrong. 😭 (and bestie, if you get undef, that's your sign, fr fr)
