Development tools

[rmalecky]

I wrote a few method to customize the behavior of Pony in my development and staging environments.

• Pony.override_options - works similarly to Pony.options, but the options override other inputs
• Pony.subject_prefix('prefix') - prepends a string to every subject line
• Pony.append_inputs - Appends the inputs from Pony.mail to the body of the email

This looks good, although can you tell me what you're using override_options for? Is it only for testing? It seems like it could be a source of unexpected issues. Is this solved by default_options?

Thanks

I'm using the override_options on our staging server. My app cc's given departments for given actions (ie when a customers payment fails cc finanace@my_company.com). With the override_options I make sure that only the developers get spammed, but we still test that the email system works.

I'm using rails and set all of these options from the environment specific config file.

@rmalecky Ok, thanks, these changes look good.
