<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../css/otherStyles.css" data-embed>
<!-- link tag will be preserved and styles will not be inlined or embedded -->
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' data-embed-ignore>

<style>
p { color: red; }

Getting Started
Install this gulp plugin next to your project's gulpfile with: npm install gulp-email-builder
Then add this line to your project's gulp.js gulp:
var emailBuilder = require('gulp-email-builder');Documentation
Place this in your gulp file.
gulp.task('emailBuilder', function() {
return gulp.src(['./example/html/*.html'])
.pipe(emailBuilder(options).build())
.pipe(gulp.dest('./example/dist/'));
});Other available methods
Besides the main emailBuilder(options).build() function, the email-builder-core methods are exposed so users can use them on an individual basis.
- emailBuilder(options).inlineCss()
- emailBuilder(options).sendEmailTest()
- emailBuilder(options).sendLitmusTest()
Example
...
.pipe(emailBuilder(options).sendEmailTest())
...Options
View Email Builder options for all available options.
Complete Example
var EmailBuilder = require('gulp-email-builder');
var options = { encodeSpecialChars: true }
var builder = EmailBuilder(options);
gulp.task('emailBuilder', function() {
return gulp.src(['./example/html/*.html'])
.pipe(builder.build())
.pipe(gulp.dest('./example/dist/'));
});
Troubleshooting
If you're having issues with Litmus taking forever to load a test or the title of the test is showing up as "No Subject", it is most likely an issue with the Litmus API. You can check the Litmus status page to find out if they're having any issues. If that's not the case, submit an issue and we'll look into further.
