This is a tiny wrapper around the standard ``EmailMessage`` class and
``send_mail()`` function that provides an easy way to create email messages
using the `Django template system
`_.
Just pass ``template_name`` and ``context`` as the first parameters then use as
normal.

Features
--------

* Built with OOP, KISS and flexibility in mind. Really small and simple, but
yet full-featured (I hope).

* Extends and mimics the built-in Django's ``EmailMessage`` and
``send_mail()``. Compatible as much as possible.

* Fully supports Django template system including template inheritance
(thanks to *BradWhittington* for the note about the problem).

* Supports any possible template engines and loaders.

* Supports serialisation (thanks to *arjandepooter*).

* Fully covered with tests.

* Tested with Django 1.4-1.10.

* Compatible with Python 2 and Python 3.

Quick start
-----------

Run:

.. code-block:: console

pip install django-mail-templated

And register the app in your settings file:

.. code-block:: python

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'mail_templated'
)

Create template:

.. code-block:: html+django

{% extends "mail_templated/base.tpl" %}

{% block subject %}
Hello {{ user.name }}
{% endblock %}

{% block body %}
{{ user.name }}, this is a plain text message.
{% endblock %}

{% block html %}
{{ user.name }}, this is an html message.
{% endblock %}

Send message:

.. code-block:: python

from mail_templated import send_mail
send_mail('email/hello.tpl', {'user': user}, from_email, [user.email])

Advanced usage:

.. code-block:: python

from mail_templated import EmailMessage

message = EmailMessage('email/hello.tpl', {'user': user}, from_email,
to=[user.email])
# TODO: Add more useful commands here.
message.send()
