@mihaelkonjevic I tend to use postal https://github.com/drewr/postal

@yogthos ok, but how do you handle sending email out of the request - response cycle? Or is postal handling that automattically?

and I use selmer to make the email templates

ah I use core.async for most IO stuff

ah, makes sense. I’ll be working on my first clojure/luminus project soon (which I’m very much looking forward to), so I’ll have a lot of questions 😄

Switching from CLJS will be an interesting change

so something like this should do the trick:

(defstate  email-channel
  :start (a/chan 10))

(defstate email-loop
  :start (a/go-loop []
           (when-some [email (a/<! email-channel)]
             (postal/send-message email)
             (recur))))

awesome, that’s what I was looking for

👍

questions and suggestions are always welcome 🙂

i have a luminus project created with +postgres, so it has the init and various migrate commands. i tried to add my own command, but when i try to run lein repl, it errors out with REPL server launch timed out.. apparently there were problems with compilation. The start of the error stack trace is:
