Question

Here i need to attach one image with mail, the passing image like this

**imageurl** = "https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=200x200&cht=qr&chl=%22hai%22&choe=UTF-8"

class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
 default :from => "[e-mail]"

 def welcome_email(**imageurl**,bname,mailid)
  **attachments['image.png'] = File.read(imageURL)**
  mail(:to => mailid,
  :subject => "Code for "+bname+"",
  :body => "code for bname" )
  end
 end
end

here i got some attachment error. Have any changes in this attachment?

thanks

Answer 1

i think you have a URL i.e a string which File.read cannot read.

require 'open-uri'
class UserMailer < ActionMailer::Base
  def welcome_email(image_url,bname,mailid)
    attachments['image.png'] = open(URI.parse(image_url))
    ...
  end
end

The above should do the trick i think.
