Griddler::AmazonSES

This is a Griddler adapter that allows you to parse email replies when used with Amazon SES.

Installation

Add these lines to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'griddler'
gem 'griddler-amazon_ses'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

  1. Setup Amazon SES to receive emails -- see http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/receiving-email-setting-up.html

  2. From AWS SES -> Rule Sets, choose to "Create Receipt Rule" and choose to use SNS. Add an action with a new SNS topic that ends in _griddler, with a Base64 encoding.

  3. Go to AWS SNS (Simple Notification Service) -> Topics. Click on your _griddler topic. Add a subscription that points to your configured griddler endpoint (the default route is /email_processor). You're server must be already running to confirm the subscription request!

  4. In your griddler handler, be sure to handle/ignore empty reply emails (ie. check for email.headers.empty?) to account for the fact that some hooks are just SNS's subscription handling.
