Use helper functions in you email view

Posted by Sandro Paganotti in Ruby on Rails - comments are closed

As I found on this technoweenie post there is an undocumented function that let you use your helpers while styling your emails.

The sintax is pretty simple and must be added to your ActionMailer model:

class Emailer < ActionMailer::Base

  helper :application
  ...

end

After this you will be able to use the functions avaiable in the named helper into your email templates. Easy isn’t it?
