Days 65-68 Heroku - Sendgrid changes

[shutteritch]

Here's the sendgrid docs that I ended up looking at: https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-python/blob/master/use_cases/send_a_single_email_to_a_single_recipient.md

Thanks @shutteritch I will look tomorrow.

Ah seems @hobojoe1848's lesson actually. I see he pinned it to sendgrid==5.6.0, are you using that version or 6.x?

We upgraded back in December on the platform and struggled with some breaking changes in 6.1.0.

Looking at our changes then:

-sendgrid==5.6.0
+sendgrid==6.1.0
...
-sg = sendgrid.SendGridAPIClient(apikey=config('SENDGRID_API_KEY'))
+sg = sendgrid.SendGridAPIClient(api_key=config('SENDGRID_API_KEY'))
...
-    mail = Mail(from_email, subject, to_email, content)
+    mail = Mail(from_email, to_email, subject, content)
...
+    message = Mail(
+        from_email=from_email,
+        to_emails=to_email,
+        subject=subject,
+        plain_text_content=body if not html else None,
+        html_content=body if html else None
+    )
...
+    response = sg.send(message) 
(before)
sg.client.mail.send.post(request_body=mail.get())

So yeah I think it would be useful to include a script for sendgrid 6.x as that is the default now.

@shutteritch we can include one, but as you seem to have one ready, you could also contribute by opening a PR against this repo. Thanks

Seems this was fixed via PR.
