After setting up Devise gem, add default_url_option to development.rb.
config/environments/development.rb
config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { host: 'localhost', port: 3000 }
Generate a User model
$ rails generate devise User
Uncomment confirmable fields in newly created migration file
db/migrate/2020xxxxxxx_devise_create_users.rb
## Confirmable
t.string :confirmation_token
t.datetime :confirmed_at
t.datetime :confirmation_sent_at
t.string :unconfirmed_emailreconfirmable
Add :confirmable to User.rb
app/models/user.rb
devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
:recoverable, :rememberable, :validatable,
:confirmable
In deveise.rb, configurate sender’s email and reconfirmable state.
# this email have to be the same as SendGrid Sender Identity
config.mailer_sender = "example@gmail.com"
config/environments/development.rb
# SendGrid
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:user_name => Rails.application.credentials.dig(:sendgrid, :username),
:password => Rails.application.credentials.dig(:sendgrid, :password),
:domain => 'your domain',
:address => 'smtp.sendgrid.net',
:port => 587,
:authentication => :plain,
:enable_starttls_auto => true
}
Rails.application.credentials.sendgrid(:username)
does not work here!
Store you credentials in master.key
$ EDITOR='code --wait' rails credentials:edit
sendgrid:
username: "apikey" # leave it as is
password: "Your API key"
Errors I ran into:
Missing host to link to! Please provide the :host parameter, set default_url_options[:host]

Need to contact VPS support
Note:
- Configure SendGrid using SMTP relay.
- SendGrid Sender Identity must be setup in order for this to work
- Must use the verified email (as Sender Identity) on the config.mailer_sender in devise.rb
- Linode have SMTP port restrictions in place on all Linodes by default, need to open up a support ticket to unblock the port
