T5.1: Using templates to generate html email

[Robert Hailey <ro...@cmediacorp.com>]

I'd like to have my tapestry web-app generate emails on particular  
actions. I've seen various methods of using tapestry 3 & 4 to send an  
email, but have not found a good recipe for tapestry 5.

Is there a way (for example) to deliver a different markup writer to a  
page's component, which can then be dumped into an email?

There isn't a supported/easy way to do this. I've had various hacks
work (replacing everything in the Environment for instance) in older
versions of Tapestry5, but they are fragile and inevitably had to be
rewritten on upgrade. I finally just went to generating a new HTTP
request for the page that holds the email contents. You can pass data
to the email page either via the session or through the activation
context.

The thing to note here is that the tapx-templating needs to run in a
completely separate tapestry app for generating the emails. Thus, if (like
me), you want to be able to send HTML email from your current tapestry5 app,
this doesn't work (at least not trivially).

I use the chenillekit-templating module with FreeMarker to generate HTML
emails within my T5 app .
