Hi.. @brondsem We need to decide better approach to extract list of usernames to send notifications using Mailbox. Therefore I am thinking we can reuse `g.markdown.convert()` then we get some text like
` <div class="markdown_content"><p><a class="user-mention" href="/u/admin1/">@admin1</a> twr </p>` So we can extract user mentions without rewriting the logic using `BeautifulSoap`. Can we discuss some better ideas --- ** [tickets:#8284] gsoc19-c4: Implement the notification email sender** **Status:** in-progress **Milestone:** unreleased **Labels:** gsoc19 **Created:** Wed May 08, 2019 03:03 PM UTC by Shalitha Suranga **Last Updated:** Thu Jul 04, 2019 03:34 PM UTC **Owner:** Shalitha Suranga *Todo* This function is responsible for detecting user mentions and sending email notifications. For the detection markdown extenstion can be reused. For sending emails existing interfaces can be used; or any other better mechanism will be discussed before the implementation. *What is expected* When a user is mentioned (and the markdown is saved) the relevant user will be notified with an email --- Sent from forge-allura.apache.org because dev@allura.apache.org is subscribed to https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
