Recently I was working on sending emails using AWS SES. What I love about SES is the option to use templated emails, which allows to easily populate variables inside of the message.
I saw that the SES Console doesn't offer a web-UI for managing my templates, you have to use the CLI. While it was ok at first I quickly grew tired of updating or creating my templates that way, so I wrote a simple GUI app in Python to do just that.
- Make sure you ran
aws configureor whatever method you use to access your AWS account.
- Clone the repo.
- Run
pip install -r requirements.txt - Run
python app.py
Clicking on "Load Templates" will populate the ComboBox below it with your existing templates
When you choose a template from the menu, it will load the contents of both the text and HTML part of that template into the corresponding tab.
The actions are self-explanatory:
- Update the template by clicking on "Update Template".
- Create a new template by clicking on "Create Template".
- Delete the chosen template by clicking on "Delete Template".
- GUI was built using Custom Tkinter.
- Learn more about SES Templating.
- All the functions are using Boto3 SES.
This is just a hobby project as I keep learning Python 😊
I welcome feedback if you have any ideas to fix/improve this tool.
