Using it on windows

[fayeeg]

Hi,

Could anyone assist how to utilize rabbitmq-email on windows ( esp. on Windows 10 64-bit & Server 2012 )?

I see makefile can be used only linux/unix environments. Whether cygwin can be used to build the sources?

Regards,
Fayeeg

msys2 works well for RabbitMQ and all of the built-in plugins. I see no reason for it to not work here. Or just download an existing build.

[fayeeg]

Thanks for your response. Could you please give me the link to download the existing build?

I'm not aware of anything newer than https://github.com/gotthardp/rabbitmq-email/releases. We offered @gotthardp some help with bringing this plugin up-to-date with the 3.6.x build system and received no response. The offer is still on the table.

Sorry for being ignorant. I am a windows guy, thought build release means final compiled output i. e plugins files that somewhere I can download from.

I did try downloading the latest build...did make..got the following error

$ git clone https://github.com/gotthardp/rabbitmq-email.git

@fayeeg this plugin needs updating for the RabbitMQ 3.6.x build system.

I followed the steps explained in #8

$ git clone https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-public-umbrella.git
$ cd rabbitmq-public-umbrella
$ git checkout rabbitmq_v3_5_6
$ make co
$ ./foreachrepo git checkout rabbitmq_v3_5_6
$ git clone https://github.com/gotthardp/rabbitmq-gen-smtp.git
$ git clone https://github.com/gotthardp/rabbitmq-eiconv.git
$ git clone https://github.com/gotthardp/rabbitmq-email.git
$ cd rabbitmq-email
$ git checkout v0.0.2
$ make
-----------------------------------------------------------------------


I changed...
$ git checkout rabbitmq_v3_5_6
to
$ git checkout rabbitmq_v3_6_12

AND 

$ ./foreachrepo git checkout rabbitmq_v3_5_6
to 
$ ./foreachrepo git checkout rabbitmq_v3_6_12


In the last step, I am getting the below errors and make does not produce 'dist' f

@fayeeg please see the comment above. This plugin is known to be out of date with the current RabbitMQ build system. We will update it soon.

[fayeeg]

I wish I had known this before. I spent hours. When likely we can have the update?

[michaelklishin]

@fayeeg 0.2.0 is already available from GitHub releases and Bintray. See the README ;)

[fayeeg]

Thanks a bunch. I already installed the latest plugins and working fantastic.
