What is the best way to schedule a sending-email task with Ruby on Rails?

Question

I would like to schedule a daily task : every day at 7 AM, I want an email to be sent (without human intervention).

I\'m working on the RoR framework and I\'m wonder

Answer 1

I was impressed by (and plan to try) the rufus-scheduler gem discussed in this blog post

He describes something like this:

scheduler = Rufus::Scheduler.start_new  

scheduler.every("1m") do  
   DailyDigest.send_digest!  
end 

..which seems pretty simple. I wonder how easy it would be to add HTML-based configuration?
