Brief Introduction
- E1940 Improving e-mail notification.
- The forked git repository for this project can be found [1]
Problem Statement
The following tasks were accomplished in this project:
- Issue1: Send new account welcome email to user, when imported from CSV through assignment page.
- Issue2: Don't send email to reviewers for a new submission after review deadline has passed.
- Issue3: Adding relevant links to reminder emails.
Issue 1 - New user email
app/models/assignment_participant.rb
- Call method to send mail after user imported successfully.
password = user.reset_password
MailerHelper.send_mail_to_user(user, "Your Expertiza account has been created.", "user_welcome", password).deliver
Issue2 - No submission email to reviewer after deadline
- Before fixing this issue, we had to write the logic to send emails to reviewers on submissions.
app/controllers/submitted_content_controller.rb
- Added the logic to check for last review date to the function submit_hyperlink
# get current date and time
cur_date = Time.now
# get the last due date for the review
max_due_date = DueDate.where(parent_id: @participant.assignment.id,deadline_type_id: 2).maximum("due_at")
# send mail only if the last due date has not passed
if cur_date <= max_due_date
email_submission_reviewers(@participant)
end
def email_submission_reviewers(participant)
if participant.reviewers.length != 0
participant.reviewers.each do |reviewer|
rev_res_map = ReviewResponseMap.where(['reviewer_id = ? and reviewee_id = ?', reviewer.id, participant.team.id]).first
all_responses = Response.where(:map_id => rev_res_map.id).order("updated_at DESC").first
user = User.find(reviewer.user_id)
if user.email_on_submission?
MailerHelper.submission_mail_to_reviewr(user,
"New submission available to review.",
"update").deliver
end
end
end
end
def self.submission_mail_to_reviewr(user, subject, mail_partial)
Mailer.notify_reviewer_for_new_submission ({
to: user.email,
subject: subject,
body: {
user: user,
#first_name: ApplicationHelper.get_user_first_name(user),
message: "",
partial_name: mail_partial
}
})
end
def notify_reviewer_for_new_submission(defn)
@partial_name = defn[:body][:partial_name]
@user = defn[:body][:user]
#@first_name = defn[:body][:first_name]
@message = defn[:body][:message]
mail(subject: defn[:subject],
