To embed templates into your Go binary, you can use a tool like go.rice.
Install go.rice first:
go get github.com/GeertJohan/go.rice
go get github.com/GeertJohan/go.rice/rice
Update your go code:
//go:generate rice embed-go
var MyTemplates = rice.MustFindBox("./path/to/templates")Run go generate to generate the embedded file. See files.go and
files_test.go for an example.
There is a couple of tested email templates available, please have a look at:
