Send transactional email using the Bedrock (Bizzan) API.

Installing

The library is installed as a standard limeplug:

$ limeplug install traml

The most common usage for traml is to send an email based on an event in Lime CRM. If your addon doesn't have an event-handler already, you can add one:

$ lime-project generate event-handler

Configuration

The following BizWizard configuration parameters are required:

  • api-key
  • URL
  • username (email address)

⚠️ Make sure your customer/user has a BizWizard account!

Add your credentials to C:\ProgramData\Lundalogik\LIME Pro Server\Event Handler\configs\Event Handler\configs\config.ini

[plugins.traml]
apikey=<string>
apiurl=<string>
apiuser=<string>
dryrun=true

⚠️ See 'DRY-RUN' section below for more information.

Usage

Step 1: Import the library into your addon:

import transactional_message_library.traml as traml

Step 2: Initialize the library event handler:

Inside your-addon-folder/event_handlers/__init__.py, at the bottom of the register_event_handler function, add the following line:

traml.register_event_handler(worker, 'my-addon')

Change my-addon to a unique name. It's important that you chose a unique name in case your solution has several addons using TRAML.

Step 3: Inside your eventhandler or your limeobject class, add Email instances to an empty list:

emails = []

emails.append(
    traml.Email(
        sender_name='Agent X',
        sender_email='[email protected]',
        subject='Helpdesk status changed to assigned',
        recipient_name='Agent Y',
        recipient_email='[email protected]',
        template_name="standard text",
        merge_codes=dict(
            monkey='Orangutang',
            katt='Nisse'
        )))

# append some more emails...

Step 4: Tell the library to send the new emails:

traml.notify(application, 'my-addon', emails)

Step 5: Profit 🥇


Dry Run Mode

It's possible to test-drive TRAML without actually sending any emails. By setting the configuration parameter dryrun to true, you can check that everything is working as expected, up to the point of actually posting to the bedrock API. TRAML will log the following info to the standard logger:

*** TRAML DRY RUN MODE *** Ready to POST 7 message(s) to the API but will stop here.

Make sure to set dryrun to false before deploying to production or no emails will be sent out!
