Sending Email using Messaging API

Hello, 

 

I'm having a problem sending an email which has a picture attachment.

Here is my code:

function mailInit() {

var serviceListCB = function (services) {

if (services.length > 0) {
mailService = services[0];
}
 
tizen.messaging.getMessageServices("messaging.email", serviceListCB);

}

function sendEmail(content, emailAddress) {

var msg = new tizen.Message("messaging.email");

msg.attachments = [ new tizen.MessageAttachment("/opt/usr/media/Images/Default.jpg", "image/jpeg")];

msg.body.plainBody = content;

msg.to = [emailAddress];
 
mailService.sendMessage(msg,
function() {
console.log("message sending successful.");
},
function(e) {
console.log("message sending failed.");
}
);

}

 

//caller

mailInit();

function sendMessage() {

sendEmail("This is a test message.", "xxxx@gmail.com");

}

 

 

Problems:

First of all, I got an exception in this line:

 msg.attachments = [ new tizen.MessageAttachment("/opt/usr/media/Images/Default.jpg", "image/jpeg")];

 

 

Exception is

Secondly, I got an exception in
mailService.sendMessage and falls in the error callback function: error message is 

 

  1. e: WebAPIError
  2.   ABORT_ERR: 20
  3. code: 0
  4. message: "UnknownError"
  5. name: "UnknownError"
  6. type: "UnknownError"

Sorry for not organized posting but hope that helps to trace the issue.

Thanks

Christian.

Hi Christian, Have you configured email client on your device? Have you selected privileges in config.xml () WebAPIError, basically refers to errors due to not having proper privileges. However, I would recommend you to send a message without attachment first, later you can add an attachment. Here is the sample code for reference var msg = new tizen.Message("messaging.email", {plainBody: "I will arrive in 10 minutes.", to: ["raghu.kona@hotmail.com", "naga.kona@outlook.com"]}); console.log("msg = " + msg.body.plainBody); function messageSent(recipients) { for (var i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++) { console.log("The SMS has been sent to " + recipients[i]); } window.history.back(); return false; } if (msg == null) { return; } try { gEmailService.sendMessage(msg, messageSent, onError); } catch (exc) { alert("sendMessage exc:" + exc.message); } Regards, Raghu Kona

Hello, Raghu. Your code is sending emails correctly. - Thanks for your nice code. But how can we add attachments to the email? Thanks. Christian.
Raghu Kona
Hi Christian, The code below allows you to add an attachment to the message. var msg = new tizen.Message("messaging.email", {plainBody: "I will arrive in 10 minutes.", to: ["raghu.kona@hotmail.com", "naga.kona@outlook.com"]}); msg.attachments = [new tizen.MessageAttachment("images/myimage.png", "image/png"), new tizen.MessageAttachment("docs/mydoc.pdf", "text/pdf")]; Regards, Raghu Kona

Hi, Raghu, Perfect, it works now, I spent 10 minutes to notice I was using "Images/myimage.png" instead of "images/myimage.png". Another question: I wonder I need to create another topic or not. It's about using email compose dialog. I successfully launched email compose dialogue, referring this link: https://developer.tizen.org/forums/web-application-development/launch-tizen-email-composing-dialog But how do I open the compose dialogue already having an image attachment? I looked at the Email application's source code and saw it is accepting the "attachments" control data with full path to the attachment file. So I used this code create ApplicationControl var service = new tizen.ApplicationControl( 'http://tizen.org/appcontrol/operation/send', null, null, null, [ new tizen.ApplicationControlData('text', [content]), new tizen.ApplicationControlData('attachments', [attach])] //full path to the file ); But in the email compose dialog, I neither can even find attachment field nor add attachment manually. Thanks. Christian.

Hi Christian, Even I did n't find any luck in adding an attachment using email compose dialog. I have raised a Jira request, but have n't got any response. I decided to wait for the 2.1 SDK expected this week, with a fix for all these issues. https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TWEB-119 Regards, Raghu Kona

I have spent a lot of time trying to get this to work before finally finding this thread. Is there a way to vote this bug up? https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TWEB-119
Christian Soe
Hello, Raghu, Tizen 2.1 SDK is finally released, but still can't find a way to launch Email Compose dialog with image attachment. Were you able to get this done? BTW, sending email using Messaging API was great in Tizen 2.1 so I can send emails which contain text and also the image attachment. Thanks. Christian.

Hi Raghu I tried replicating same in my app But it throws an error "sendMessage exc:gEmailService is not defined" Here is my code //Initialize function var init = function() { // caller debugger; sendEmail("This is a test message.", "ashvini.27.04@gmail.com"); }; $(document).ready(init); function sendEmail(content, emailAddress) { var msg = new tizen.Message("messaging.email", {plainBody: "I will arrive in 10 minutes.", to: ["abc@qpr.com", "ashvini@gmail.com"]}); console.log("msg = " + msg.body.plainBody); function messageSent(recipients) { for (var i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++) { console.log("The Email has been sent to " + recipients[i]); } window.history.back(); return false; } if (msg == null) { return; } try { EmailService.sendMessage(msg, messageSent, onError); } catch (exc) { alert("sendMessage exc:" + exc.message); } }

Hi, Your code is missing the initialization part. You have to initialize the email services before sending an email. Just call this method inside init function. var gEmailService; function mailInit() { var serviceListCB = function (services) { if (services.length > 0) { gEmailService= services[0]; } tizen.messaging.getMessageServices("messaging.email", serviceListCB); } Regards, Raghu Kona
