Email Templates is an open source Django app to allow creation and editing of email templates in Django's admin interface. The resulting templates can be referenced in code and will be rendered with standard Django template context.

pip install git+https://github.com/atkinson/django-emailtemplates.git

Include Email Templates in your settings.py.

INSTALLED_APPS = [

    ...

    'emailtemplates',

    ...
]

Send an email by using the send_email_template utility.

from emailtemplates.utils import send_email_template
send_email_template('template_slug', ['toemail@example.com'], {'context_variable': 'foo'})

By default, the FROM address on emails will be noreply at the domain returned by Site.objects.get_current(). You can override that default in your settings.py:

EMAILTEMPLATES_DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'noreply@yourdomain.com'

You can also implement DEBUG mode, where only email addresses that match your whitelist will receive emails.

EMAILTEMPLATES_DEBUG = True
EMAILTEMPLATES_DEBUG_WHITELIST = ['someone@yourdomain.com','anotherdomain.com',]
