schedule the sending of an email in rails

Question

I need to send an email 3 months after the client registered, I am using the gem exchange program, for now I send an email when the client registers, but I need to do both.

Answer 1

You need to have some kind of gem to do cron jobs, like whenever. Or just use regular linux cron to run your script directly, and then program it to run every day.

And then the script to check when users registered:

User.where(sent_email: false).each do |user|
    if user.registered_date + 3.months < Time.now
        #send email
        user.update(sent_email:true)
    end
end
