Setup

gem install mailerlite-ruby

You will have to initalize it in your Ruby file with require "mailerlite-ruby".

Usage

This SDK requires that you have the MAILERLITE_API_TOKEN environment variable set. You can set this variable in a .env file or enable it system-wide (useful for Docker/Kubernetes). The example of how MAILERLITE_API_TOKEN should look like is in .env.example.

If you want to use dotenv to manage your environment variables, you can configure the mailerlite gem to load dotenv:

MailerLite.configure do |config|
  config.use_dotenv = true
end
