Overview

Premailer by Alex Dunae (dunae.ca, e-mail ‘code’ at the same domain), 2008-09

Premailer processes HTML and CSS to improve e-mail deliverability.

Premailer’s main function is to render all CSS as inline style attributes. It also converts relative links to absolute links and checks the ‘safety’ of CSS properties against a CSS support chart.

Example

premailer = Premailer.new('http://example.com/myfile.html', :warn_level => Premailer::Warnings::SAFE)

# Write the HTML output
fout = File.open("output.html", "w")
fout.puts premailer.to_inline_css
fout.close

# Write the plain-text output
fout = File.open("ouput.txt", "w")
fout.puts premailer.to_plain_text
fout.close

# List any CSS warnings
puts premailer.warnings.length.to_s + ' warnings found'
premailer.warnings.each do |w|
  puts "#{w[:message]} (#{w[:level]}) may not render properly in #{w[:clients]}"
end

premailer = Premailer.new(html_file, :warn_level => Premailer::Warnings::SAFE)
puts premailer.to_inline_css
