I’m using the securesocial module in google app engine. Because html emails do not work (only text emails), I need to put in a fix. The fix is to replace sendActivationEmail.html with a new file sendActivationEmail.txt. If the html file exists at all, the play mailer will pick it up first. What is the best way to do this?

I have a method but it involves using local copies of all my modules. I use:

rm modules/* # remove module link files
play deps --forceCopy # copy external modules into ./modules/...

Then I customize the local version in my app’s home directory. One side note, I put the rm command in a configuration script and check-in only sendActivationEmail.txt.

Is this the best way?

    Given that you need a custom version of a module, your best bet is to copy it and attach it to the source of your application (while still keeping it as a module), so you can tinker with it as much as you want.

    That will make it easier to add further changes if required.
