smtplib missing on CCU - Githubissues

jschmer commented 8 years ago

I'd like to send basic emails with smtplib that comes bundled with python.

This module does not exist on the current CCU installation. Is there another method to send emails that are already bundled on the CCU python installation?

Not yet, but it is a good idea to make this possible. Additional Python modules can be integrated easily.

In general on Linux systems I tend to use sendmail together with the local MTA to send out mails. This way it is not needed to configure the mail settings for each application individually.

As far as I see there is no such configuration on the CCU. So seems to be equal which way to go on the first view. When executing pmatic on another Linux system it might come in handy to use sendmail. But from the portability point of view it seems to be good to use a pure Python mechanism.

Just added this library. It would be really nice to have a EMail() notify class in pmatic/notify.py with an API equal to the Pushover() class.

Looks like a module dependency for the MIME modules is still missing:

  File "/usr/local/etc/config/addons/pmatic/scripts/SendEMail.py", line 6, in SendEMail
    from email.mime.text import MIMEText
  File "/usr/local/etc/config/addons/pmatic/python/lib/python2.7/email/mime/text.py", line 10, in <module>
    from email.mime.nonmultipart import MIMENonMultipart
  File "/usr/local/etc/config/addons/pmatic/python/lib/python2.7/email/mime/nonmultipart.py", line 10, in <module>
    from email.mime.base import MIMEBase
  File "/usr/local/etc/config/addons/pmatic/python/lib/python2.7/email/mime/base.py", line 9, in <module>
    from email import message
  File "/usr/local/etc/config/addons/pmatic/python/lib/python2.7/email/message.py", line 10, in <module>
    import uu
ImportError: No module named uu
