My Environment

Software Version
Operating System macOS 12.2.1

Ruby 2.7.2p137

Expected Behaviour

Current Behavior

ArgumentError.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

I created a brand new project and followed the instructions (minus the migration) to turn on mailer previews and create a mailer preview model.

In my real project, I was noticing that the /jets/mailer routes seem to disappear when the Jets::Router::Finder calls reset_routes!. That project was initialized as an api project; however, I did try setting config.mode = 'html' in the environments/development.rb file. It's unclear to me exactly how things are different between api and html mode.

Code Sample

Solution Suggestion

If there's any guidance to help me trace through how these routes are generated and how the built-in templates are supposed to be served, I'm happy to keep digging. I've ran into a bit of a wall at the moment.

In my real project, I monkey-patched Jets::Router::Finder#reset_routes! to not do anything, and then I manually copied the email.html.erb view into my app as app/views/jets/mailers. I'm at least able to see my individual mailer previews.

config/initializers/finder.rb

# Monkey-patch this to get mailer previews working. For some reason after
# clearing the routes, the internal mailer preview routes are not re-added.
#
# This will likely mean we'll need to restart the server when changing routes.
class Jets::Router
  class Finder
    def reset_routes!
      return
    end
  end
end

(Updated the same project to show the effect of this.)

Went through docs for v5 testing and it worked.

So seems fixed.
