Python API Client for Freshmail API V3
This API V3 client covers only sending transactional emails by FreshMail Application. Additional features will be added in future.
- Python 3.5+

}

}

{
"email": "recipient email address",
"personalization": {

}
}
]
response = sender.send(message=message)You can send multiple emails by one request. It's much faster than sending one email by one request. In one request You can send up to 100 emails.

},
{
"email": "third recipient email address",

}
}
]
response = sender.send(message=message)You can use FreshMail Templates mechanism to optimize requests to API. Additionally You can modify content of Your emails in FreshMail, not modifying the code of Your application.
from freshmail.messaging.email.mailbag import MailBag
from freshmail.sender.sender import FreshmailSender
from freshmail.transport.api.email import EmailApiTransport
token = "MY_APP_TOKEN"
transport = EmailApiTransport(bearer_token = token)
sender = FreshmailSender(transport=transport)
message = MailBag()
message.from_ = {
"email": "from@address.com",
"name": "Support"
}
message.subject = "Hello, that's my email genereted by template!"
message.template_hash = "TEMPLATE_HASH"
message.tos = [
{
"email": "recipient email address"
}
]
response = sender.send(message=message)You can sent emails with attachments. You can upload up to 10 files. Weight of all attachments in email can't exceed 10Mb.
from freshmail.messaging.email.attachment import Base64Attachment, LocalFileAttachment
from freshmail.messaging.email.mailbag import MailBag
from freshmail.sender.sender import FreshmailSender
from freshmail.transport.api.email import EmailApiTransport
from base64 import b64encode
token = "MY_APP_TOKEN"
transport = EmailApiTransport(bearer_token = token)
sender = FreshmailSender(transport=transport)
# attachment from hard drive
local_file_attachment = LocalFileAttachment(
filepath="/my/local/path/file.extension",
name="optional file name"
)
# attachment from base64
base64_attachment = Base64Attachment(
name="base64text.txt",
content=b64encode("example content".encode())
)
message = MailBag()
message.from_ = {
"email": "from@address.com",
"name": "Support"
}
message.subject = "Hello, thats mail with attachments!!"
message.contents = {
"html": "<html><body><strong>Attachments</strong> in mail</body></html>"
}
message.tos = [
{
"email": "recipient email address"
}
]
message.attachments = [
local_file_attachment,
base64_attachment
]
response = sender.send(message=message)API throws exceptions for errors that occurred during requests and errors occurred before sending requests.
- If request is not sent to server because of wrong API usage, an exception that extends
freshmail.exceptions.ApiUsageExceptionis thrown. This kind of exception means, for example, wrong parameters pass to some methods or passing both content and template in transactional mail, which means request won't be accepted, so API does not make any request. - If request is sent and some network issue occurred (DNS error, connection timeout, firewall blocking requests), a
freshmail.exceptions.RequestExceptionis thrown. - If request is sent, a response is received but some server error occurred (500 level http code), a
freshmail.exceptions.ServerExceptionis thrown. - If request is sent, a response is received but some client error occurred (400 level http code), a
freshmail.exceptions.ClientExceptionis thrown.
from freshmail.exceptions import ClientException
try:
response = sender.send(message=message)
except ClientException as e:
handle_exception(e)Set logger to level DEBUG to log request data and request response.
If You need to configure proxy You can use a dictionary and pass it as an argument to Transport object.
from freshmail.transport.api.email import EmailApiTransport
token = 'MY_APP_TOKEN'
proxies = {
"http": "http://10.10.10.10:8000",
"https": "http://10.10.10.10:8000"
}
transport = EmailApiTransport(bearer_token=token, proxies=proxies)If You need to log or debug Your requests You can pass logging.Logger object.
