User context: needs to send Giftbit gift cards to 203 customers with a
branded French email instead of Giftbit's English-only default delivery.
Giftbit's own UI/API can issue the gifts but its email is English; this
MVP bridges the gap by taking the gift URLs back from Giftbit, pairing
them with our contact CSV, and sending personalized FR emails through
the Mailjet SMTP that's already wired up for ERPNext invoice mail.
Three files in scripts/campaigns/:
1. send_gift_campaign.js — Node CLI. Two CSV inputs (gifts + contacts),
matches by row order (default) or email key, renders the HTML
template with mustache-style {{firstname}} / {{gift_url}} / etc.,
sends via nodemailer with configurable SMTP + throttle.
--dry-run writes per-recipient previews to disk for visual review
before flipping to live mode. Results CSV with per-row status
(sent / failed / dry-run) + error message + timestamp is written
next to the script for follow-up on failures.
2. templates/gift-email-fr.html — branded French email. Table-based
layout (the only thing that renders consistently in Gmail / Outlook /
iOS Mail / Apple Mail / Bell Sympatico). Indigo gradient header,
centered CTA button, contextual {{description}} line citing the
service address, support contact in the footer, no inline images
(defers to text + colour blocks to dodge image-blocking).
3. contacts_from_legacy.py — replaces the ad-hoc /tmp Python I ran
earlier with a proper repo'd version. Same multi-email handling
options (first / split / skip) as I offered the user; defaults to
"first" = 1 gift per household, which is what they chose. Title-
cases the address with French article rules (de / du / la / aux
stay lowercase, 1re / 2e ordinals stay lowercase too).
4. README.md — end-to-end usage with the actual SMTP env vars from
/opt/targo-hub/.env and the matching strategy decision matrix.
Validated end-to-end with a 5-row dry run: matching works, accents
preserved (Amélie, Geneviève, Marc-André), {{firstname}} interpolates,
gift URLs land in the rendered button href, address shows in the
contextual footer line. Previews written to disk for visual QA.
NOT in this MVP (out of scope, can come next if we end up running
gift campaigns regularly):
- No persistence to ERPNext doctype (no Gift Campaign / Recipient
records — pure CLI, results CSV is the audit trail)
- No click-tracking redirect (the gift_url goes verbatim to the
recipient; Giftbit's own API/dashboard reports redemption status,
which is the more relevant signal than "clicked the link")
- No ops UI page (CLI is fine for one-shot; if this becomes regular
we wrap it in services/targo-hub/lib/gift-campaign.js + a Vue page)
