From 35fa926d7d0402e87f688f60406b5004a6499acf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Atul Varma Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2014 10:12:52 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Update DEVELOPER-ADVANCED.md with Sidekiq info I was confused as to why activation emails weren't showing up in Mailcatcher, and finally took a look at the non-advanced developer guide to find the mention of Sidekiq. I thought it would be appropriate to mention it here as well. --- docs/DEVELOPER-ADVANCED.md | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/DEVELOPER-ADVANCED.md b/docs/DEVELOPER-ADVANCED.md index 363988b707b..5e08acbfdee 100644 --- a/docs/DEVELOPER-ADVANCED.md +++ b/docs/DEVELOPER-ADVANCED.md @@ -132,6 +132,12 @@ config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = { address: "localhost", port: 1025 } Set up [MailCatcher](https://github.com/sj26/mailcatcher) so the app can intercept outbound email and you can verify what is being sent. +Note also that mail is sent asynchronously by Sidekiq, so you'll need to have it running to process jobs.
