Created a simple Apache Commons Email object and went to compile it. Imported: import org.apache.commons.mail._ and javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage and also did the following:
def sendVerification(user: User) = {
val email = new SimpleEmail()
email.setHostName("smtp.sendgrid.net")
email.setSmtpPort(465)
email.setAuthenticator(new DefaultAuthenticator("user", "pass"))
email.setSSLOnConnect(true)
email.setFrom("Community Admin <[email protected]>")
email.setSubject("TestMail")
email.setMsg("""Welcome %s!
Thanks for signing up. This email is to confirm your email address.
Cheers,
Admin Team
""" format user.firstName)
email.addTo(user.email)
email.send()
}
Errors are as following:
[error] C:\Users\path\to\AccountService\models\User.scala:43: object mail is not a member of package javax
[error] import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage
[error] ^
[error] error while loading Email, Missing dependency 'class javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage', required by C:\Users\path\lib\commons-email-1.2.jar(org/apache/commons/mail/Email.class)
[error] C:\Users\path\com\threetierlogic\AccountService\models\User.scala:256: value setHostName is not a member of org.apache.commons.mail.SimpleEmail
[error] email.setHostName("smtp.sendgrid.net")
However, when I go to compile it throws errors on every single method called on val email. Is this an issue related to mutability? Or has something changed in version 1.3?
Mel Nicholson was pointing towards the right issue, it is related to a dependency not being fetched. I didn't realize that it didn't come with the Apache JAR I downloaded. So instead I simply added it to my sbt Build.scala and voila! It compiled.
val commonsMail = "org.apache.commons" % "commons-email" % "1.3"
