Elixir email libraries - Bamboo vs Swoosh?

Bamboo doesn’t support the new layouts/format approach yet so you can’t as easily put your template next to your logic.

They both can do async and don’t prescribe anything, although I like Swoosh’s approach a bit better.

We use Bamboo currently. We might switch eventually but for now it’s fine.

For new stuff I’ve just stuck with Swoosh, especially since the generators already have it. Biggest killer though has been the mjml library. It makes it all much easier

Ah, maybe it was only a mention in the guides: Sending Email · Phoenix

Phoenix never switched to swoosh, it didn’t use Bamboo before. I’d also wonder if there went much thought into selecting swoosh initially given how similar those two are.

+1 as seems Phoenix switched to Swoosh so would like to know the reasoning/advantages to consider whether to do the same…

Any thoughts on swoosh vs bamboo nowadays?

And for what it’s worth today it seems no longer to be the case: https://hexdocs.pm/bamboo/Bamboo.Attachment.html

Ahh yeah, I should have included that caveat. I’m looking at Swoosh to see if it meets my needs. If it doesn’t, I’m considering forking Mailman myself. In the meantime I’m using your fork @benwilson512, no support suspected.

Please note that this fork is 100% for my own usage, it is not intended to be a community wide fork. If it works for you, great, but I’m not supporting a community fork here even a little.

I use mailman, but you need to use this fork GitHub - benwilson512/mailman: Mailman provides a clean way of defining mailers in your Elixir applications · GitHub at the moment if you want to use newer versions of Elixir

Mjml looks interesting. Hadn’t heard of that.
