choirMail

send a weekly mail automatically

Building

Just run nix build.

Running

Just run the binary to send a mail, it requires exactly one parameter that points to a config file.

Configuration

The config file is a toml file, even though it as of now makes not really use of any toml features.

[mail]
domain   = "the domain of the smtp server to send messages with"
user     = "the username on the smtp server"
password = "the passwond on the smtp server"
to       = "the mail to send to"
from     = "the sender of the mail"
errorTo  = "the address to send a mail to in case of error"

Develop

If you run nix develop you get a set up kakoune with an lsp. Be aware this depends on your local cabal cache.

TODO

• Better E-Mail generation
• Add the nix modules to the flake
• Better Error handling
  • Find out which exceptions the SMTP module throws
• Split config into secrets and non secret config
  • make the pad url configurable
• clean up Text vs lazy Text
