ActionMailer still looking for ActionView mailer templates about sparkpost_rails HOT 3 CLOSED

Oh yeah - that's a good point. ActionMailer, by default, is going to attempt to render the associated view(s). That's not something we can work around in the gem, but we should probably update the readme to document this. Probably the easiest way will be to explicitly pass in an empty text part:

mail(to: '[email protected]', sparkpost_data: data) do |format|
    format.text {render text: ""}
end

Something like that should get you up and running.

Thanks for your response. I resorted to using ruby_sparkpost gem from Sparkpost. Though, it works fine, just difficult to test because it doesn't use ActionMailer. This is the reason for trying to make this gem work since I can test email delivery and its content with capybara_email. Thanks

@dgoerlich thanks it worked. I didn't know the mail function from ActionMailer takes a block that you can define the template and layout in.
