Demonstrates how to add an attachment to an email via the AddDataAttachment and AddDataAttachment2 methods. Chilkat2-Python

import chilkat2

success = False

email = chilkat2.Email()

# First populate a simple email.
email.Subject = "This is the subject."
email.Body = "This is a simple email body."
email.From = "Chilkat Software <support@chilkatsoft.com>"
email.AddTo("Some Recipient","someRecipient@somewhere.com")

# Load a JPG file.
# The actual source of your attachment data can come from anywhere.
# The point here is that we're first getting the bytes in memory, and THEN adding
# the bytes as an attachment.
fac = chilkat2.FileAccess()

# jpgBytes is a memoryview
jpgBytes = fac.ReadEntireFile("qa_data/jpg/starfish20.jpg")

# Add the JPG bytes via AddDataAttachment.
email.AddDataAttachment("tinyStarfish.jpg",jpgBytes)

# We could also add the JPG and explicitly set the content-type w/ AddDataAttachment2
email.AddDataAttachment2("teenyStarfish.jpg",jpgBytes,"image/jpg")

# Examine the MIME:
print(email.GetMime())

# This is the MIME of the email:
