SendGrid

A wrapper for SendGrid's API to create composable emails.

Installation

Add the following code to your dependencies in your mix.exs file:

{:sendgrid, "~> 1.0.1"}

Configuration

In one of your configuration files, include your SendGrid API key like this:

config :sendgrid,
  api_key: "SENDGRID_API_KEY"

If you'd like to enable sandbox mode (emails won't send but will be validated), add the setting to your config:

config :sendgrid,
  api_key: "SENDGRID_API_KEY",
  sandbox_enable: true

Add :sendgrid to your list of applications

defp application do
  [applications: [:sendgrid]]
end
