Instance Method Details

#ar_mailer_attribute(key, value = nil) ⇒ Object

Sets a custom email class attribute. It can be used if the user wants to set custom attributes on his email records, e.g. to track them later. They are automatically set as attributes in the resulting AR record, so make sure that they actually exist as database columns!

Examples:

Setting a client id to track which client sent the email

ar_mailer_attribute :client_id, @client.id
