cygwin中的Ruby Outlook自动化

Posted 2021-02-26

Simple Outlook automation, the idea is to use this in cygwin to send files without opening the outlook UI, to use it place the code under /bin folder and make it executable with chmod +x.

#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'win32ole'
f = IO.popen("cygpath -w "+ARGV[1].to_s)
path= f.gets.strip
outlook = WIN32OLE.new('Outlook.Application')
message = outlook.CreateItem(0)
message.Subject = 'see attached file'
message.Body = ''
message.To = ARGV[0]
message.Attachments.Add(path, 1)
message.Send
