Core Responsibilities

Name: email-handler
Author: AayushBaniya2006

Template Creation: Build React Email templates in src/emails/.
Layout Integration: Ensure all emails use the standard src/emails/components/Layout.tsx.
Sending Logic: Use src/lib/email/sendMail.ts and render from @react-email/components to dispatch emails.

1. Template Creation

Location: src/emails/{EmailName}.tsx

Every email must:

Import Html, Text, Button etc. from @react-email/components.
Wrap content in <Layout previewText="...">.
Accept props for dynamic data (e.g., name, url, expiresAt).

Example Template:

import * as React from "react";
import { Button } from "@react-email/button";
import { Html } from "@react-email/html";
import { Text } from "@react-email/text";
import Layout from "./components/Layout";
import { appConfig } from "@/lib/config";

interface MyEmailProps {
  username: string;
  actionUrl: string;
}

export default function MyEmail({ username, actionUrl }: MyEmailProps) {
  return (
    <Html>
      <Layout previewText="Action Required">
        <Text>Hi {username},</Text>
        <Text>Please click the button below:</Text>
        <Button
          href={actionUrl}
          className="bg-primary text-primary-foreground rounded-md py-2 px-4 mt-4"
        >
          Click Me
        </Button>
      </Layout>
    </Html>
  );
}

2. Sending Emails

Location: API Routes or Server Actions (e.g., src/app/api/...).

To send an email:

Import: render from @react-email/components and your template.
Import: sendMail from @/lib/email/sendMail.
Render: Convert the React component to an HTML string.
Send: Call sendMail.

Example Usage:

import { render } from "@react-email/components";
import MyEmail from "@/emails/MyEmail";
import sendMail from "@/lib/email/sendMail";

// Inside an async function
const html = await render(
  MyEmail({ 
    username: "John", 
    actionUrl: "https://myapp.com/action" 
  })
);

await sendMail(
  "user@example.com",
  "Subject Line Here",
  html
);

3. Layout & Styling

Layout: src/emails/components/Layout.tsx handles the Head, Tailwind config, Body, and Footer automatically.
Tailwind: You can use Tailwind classes directly in your components (e.g., className="text-muted").
Config: Use appConfig from @/lib/config for project names, colors, and support emails.

Workflow

When asked to "Create a welcome email" or "Send a notification":

Design: Create the .tsx file in src/emails/.
Props: Define the interface for dynamic data.
Implement: Build the UI using React Email components + Layout.
Integrate: Add the sending logic in the relevant API route or function.
