There is a "Configuration" Object that you can get as bean:
Here is the code:
package your.package;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.ui.freemarker.FreeMarkerTemplateUtils;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody;
import freemarker.template.Configuration;
import freemarker.template.Template;
@Controller
public class MailTemplate {
@Autowired
Configuration configuration;
@RequestMapping("/test")
public @ResponseBody String test2() throws Exception {
// prepare data
Map<String, String> data = new HashMap<>();
data.put("name", "Max Mustermann");
// get template
Template t = configuration.getTemplate("test.html");
String readyParsedTemplate = FreeMarkerTemplateUtils
.processTemplateIntoString(t, data);
// do what ever you want to do with html...
// just for testing:
return readyParsedTemplate;
}
}
First of all, you should define Email content using Freemarker Template, for example
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<p>Dear ${firstName} ${lastName},</p>
<p>Sending Email using Spring Boot with <b>FreeMarker template !!!</b></p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>${signature}</p>
<p>${location}</p>
</body>
</html>
Next, creating email service which process email template and returns mine message object, such as
import java.util.Properties;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSender;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.JavaMailSenderImpl;
import org.springframework.mail.javamail.MimeMessageHelper;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import org.springframework.ui.freemarker.FreeMarkerTemplateUtils;
import com.javabycode.model.Mail;
import freemarker.template.Configuration;
import freemarker.template.Template;
@Service
public class MailService {
@Autowired
private JavaMailSender sender;
@Autowired
private Configuration freemarkerConfig;
public void sendEmail(Mail mail) throws Exception {
MimeMessage message = sender.createMimeMessage();
MimeMessageHelper helper = new MimeMessageHelper(message);
// Using a subfolder such as /templates here
freemarkerConfig.setClassForTemplateLoading(this.getClass(), "/templates");
Template t = freemarkerConfig.getTemplate("email-template.ftl");
String text = FreeMarkerTemplateUtils.processTemplateIntoString(t, mail.getModel());
helper.setTo(mail.getMailTo());
helper.setText(text, true);
helper.setSubject(mail.getMailSubject());
sender.send(message);
}
}
However, It is not suitable to share full working example here. You can refer to the completed tutorial Spring Boot Freemarker Email Template
Hope this helps!
