django-sendgrid is the easiest way to send e-mail with SendGrid. It uses the SendGrid SMTP API, as recommended.
Although it's rather simple to use, a example project is included to demonstrate usage.
To install with PyPi:
pip install django-sendgridAdd sendgrid to your INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
# Existing apps
"sendgrid",
)Add the following to your settings:
SENDGRID_EMAIL_HOST = "smtp.sendgrid.net"
SENDGRID_EMAIL_PORT = 587
SENDGRID_EMAIL_USERNAME = "your_sendgrid_username"
SENDGRID_EMAIL_PASSWORD = "your_sendgrid_password"The API is similar to that of Django's; create a SendGridEmailMessage and send it:
>>> from sendgrid.message import SendGridEmailMessage
>>> email = SendGridEmailMessage('Subject', 'Body', 'ryan@ryanbalfanz.net', ['ryan@ryanbalfanz.net'])
>>> email.send()
