Comment:
Hello WeeDom,
With the code that you provided, I created an isolated test case (removing
moving pieces), which asserts about the HTML body of the sent email. The
test passes and it shows the correct and expected HTML content. The test
case:
{{{#!python
class OrderTestCase(TestCase):
def test_ticket_36244(self):
context = {
"name": "some name",
"phone": "some phone",
"email": "some email",
"address1": "some address1",
"comments": "some comments",
}
vendor_email_html = (
render_to_string("order/order_email_to_vendor.html", context)
+ " testing by Dom"
)
vendor_email_plain = strip_tags(vendor_email_html)
mail.send_mail(
"New Order",
vendor_email_plain,
"[email protected]",
["[email protected]"],
fail_silently=False,
html_message=vendor_email_html,
)
self.assertEqual(len(mail.outbox), 1)
msg = mail.outbox[0]
expected = """<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>New Order</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hi, AK,</p>
<p>An order has been placed by some name. Details below:</p>
<ul>
<li>Name: some name</li>
<li>Phone: some phone</li>
<li>Email: some email</li>
<li>Address: some address1</li>
<li>Comments: some comments</li>
</ul>
<p>Cheers,<br>Your friendly robot helper.</p>
</body>
</html>
testing by Dom"""
self.assertEqual(msg.alternatives[0][0], expected)
}}}
Because of the above, and lack of reproduction steps, this report seems
better suited to be a support request. The best place to get answers to
your issue is using any of the user support channels from
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/faq/help/#how-do-i-do-x-why-
doesn-t-y-work-where-can-i-go-to-get-help this link].
Since the goal of this issue tracker is to track issues about Django
itself, and your issue seems, at first, to be located in your custom code,
I'll be closing this ticket as invalid following the
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/triaging-
tickets/#closing-tickets ticket triaging process]. If, after debugging,
you find out that this is indeed a bug in Django, please re-open with the
specific details and please be sure to include a small Django project to
reproduce or a failing test case.
I'm also unchecking the "has patch" flag since I can't find a PR for this
ticket.
Thank you!
