E-mail with attachment

[iJAF]

Updated script for sending e-mails with attachment, place this function in Common functions:

Code:

-- send an e-mail with attachment function mailattach(to, subject, message, filename, filedata, mimetype)   -- make sure these settings are correct   local settings = {     -- "from" field, only e-mail must be specified here     from = 'example@gmail.com',     -- smtp username     user = 'example@gmail.com',     -- smtp password     password = 'mypassword',     -- smtp server     server = 'smtp.gmail.com',     -- smtp server port     port = 465,     -- enable ssl, required for gmail smtp     secure = 'tlsv12',   }   local smtp = require('socket.smtp')   if type(to) ~= 'table' then     to = { to }   end   for index, email in ipairs(to) do     to[ index ] = '<' .. tostring(email) .. '>'   end   -- escape double quotes in file name   filename = filename:gsub('"', '\\"')   -- message headers and body   settings.source = smtp.message({     headers = {       to = table.concat(to, ', '),       subject = subject,     },     body = {       {         headers = {           ['Content-Type'] = 'text/html; charset=utf-8',           ['From'] = '<' .. tostring(settings.from) .. '>',         },         body = mime.eol(0, message)       },       {         headers = {           ['Content-Type'] = mimetype or 'text/plain',           ['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename="' .. filename .. '"',           ['Content-Transfer-Encoding'] = 'BASE64',         },         body = ltn12.source.chain(           ltn12.source.string(filedata),           ltn12.filter.chain(mime.encode('base64'), mime.wrap())         )       }     }   })   -- fixup from field   settings.from = '<' .. tostring(settings.from) .. '>'   settings.rcpt = to   return smtp.send(settings) end

Function parameters:

• to - recepient's e-mail address
  
• subject - e-mail subject
  
• message - the message itself
  
• filename - name of the attachment file that will appear in the e-mail
  
• filedata - attachment file data
  
• mimetype - mime type of attachment, defaults to text/plain when not specified
  

Example:

Code:

-- read csv report file data = io.readfile('/home/ftp/report-2016.csv') -- send file as report.csv with text/csv mime type res, err = mailattach('someone@example.com', 'Report for 2016', 'CSV file attached', 'report.csv', data, 'text/csv') log(res, err)

Hello,

Is this function still working on the latest SpaceLynk firmware (2.7) ?

I'm thinking in using it to send csv energy measurements every start of a new month, with the last month measurements.

Thank you
