How to send a html email with attachment

Rails
1

Hi guys:
I wanna send a html format email with a attachment.
What I do is like:
model:
def weekly_report
address =
WeeklyReportEmail.find_all_by_validate(true).collect(&:address).to_sentence(:last_word_connector
=> ‘,’, :two_words_connector => ‘,’)
@recipients = address
@from = “Chronos weekly report [email protected]”
@subject = “[Chronos] Weekly report”
@sent_on = Time.zone.now
@body[:projects] = Project.all

attachment :content_type => "image/png",
  :body => File.read(RAILS_ROOT + "/public/images/cancel.png")

end

views: just a erb file.

and the way I sent the mail is like below:

mail = MailReport.create_weekly_report
mail.set_content_type(“text/html”)
MailReport.deliver(mail)

If I sent it like that, I can not get the attachment insted of getting
some messy code.

I tried sent it like MailReport.deliver_weekly_report.
If so, the email will not be a html format email.

So what should I do, if I wanna send a html email with attachment.

something like:

This is example procedure - assuming that i want to send few pdfs
attached with a html email - this is ordinary mailer method

class ExampleNotify < ActionMailer::Base

def example(_user, _attachments)
recipients _user.email
from FROM
subject ‘example’
content_type “text/html; charset=utf-8”

body        render_message('example')

for a in _attachments
  attachment :content_type => "application/pdf", :body =>

File.read(File.join(RAILS_ROOT,DOCUMENT_DIR,a)), :filename=>a
end
end

end

Hi

U can try this.
User_notifier:
def method_name(email)
@recipients = email
@content_type = “text/html”
attachment :content_type => “application/octet-stream”,
:filename => “User Manual.pdf”,
:body => File.read(“public/User Manual.pdf”)

end

Thanks
