Rendering Text Emails about swig-email-templates HOT 4 CLOSED

Seems like a valid use case. Couple things to note:

1. Some dispatching services, such as SendGrid, will automatically render a text version given the html version and do the right thing with it.
2. In the absence of this service, it makes sense for swig-email-templates to automatically render a text version based on the html version.
3. If your project demands complete control over the plain text version, it makes sense to be able to override this functionality and manually provide a text version.

I'm curious where you fit in on that list, @paintzen.

I use Amazon SES for sending emails, and although it is ambiguous in the documentation whether or not a text version is required, my own tests, indicate it is. I would be fine for swig-email-templates to auto generate a text version. Nothing I'm doing is different between the two (content wise).

I'd much prefer to use swig-email-templates mainly because of the inheritance. Nothing crazy, just don't want to keep track of updating fifteen templates when we tweak our logo.

Makes sense. Feel free to make a pull request. This project is only 122 lines of code. Otherwise I'll get around to it eventually.

+1 Would love to see the feature too! I can't start using it until it's available. Unfortunately text email -combined with HTML email version- is a whole lot more important than it might seem for spam filters. So for production ready developments I'd highly recommend dropping this in. Current implementation looks awesome and I'm excited to be able to use this module. Been using node-email-templates but would love switching to a reusable design! Thank you.
