Question

What is the right way to embed an image into email using Rails?

Answer 1

After a lot of research i have found very cleaner way to embed image in email. Just add following line in production.rb and development.rb

config.action_mailer.asset_host = 'YOUR HOST URL'

In your view embed image by using following code.

<%= image_tag('My Web Site Logo.png') %>

Note: Make sure to update YOUR HOST URL and My Web Site Logo.png in above code.

For basic details of usage of Action Mailer, please refer to ActionMailer::Base.
