Motivation

Mailtrap now serves a conventions-compliant templates API at /api/templates (and /api/accounts/{account_id}/templates): every response is wrapped in a data envelope, the list is paginated with token / per_page, and write bodies are flat. The existing /api/email_templates surface keeps its published shape and stays the stable way to manage templates.

This adds the new surface as a sibling resource rather than widening the existing one, because widening would change every return type for current callers. The old surface is not deprecated yet: the new endpoints are experimental, and EmailTemplates.List returns every template while Templates.List returns one page. It can be deprecated when /api/templates leaves experimental.

Changes

  • Add client.Templates (TemplatesService) for /api/templates: List(ctx, &TemplateListOptions{Token, PerPage}) returns TemplatesList (Data + Pagination), All iterates across pages, Get/Create/Update unwrap data, Delete expects 204; flat request structs
    • Pagination is the existing shared type
  • UpdateTemplateRequest.BodyText / BodyHTML are *string, so mailtrap.Ptr("") clears a body
  • The EmailTemplatesService and EmailTemplates field docs point at Client.Templates (no Deprecated: marker)
  • Add examples/templates and README rows

How to test

You'll need an API token.

  • List — client.Templates.List(ctx, &mailtrap.TemplateListOptions{PerPage: 1}) returns one item in Data and a non-nil Pagination.NextToken when more exist; PerPage: 1, Token: 2 returns the next page; All(ctx, nil) yields every template
  • Create / get / update / delete — Create(ctx, &CreateTemplateRequest{Name, Subject, Category, BodyHTML}) returns a *Template with ID and a 201 response; Get, Update with only Subject, Update with BodyText: mailtrap.Ptr("") (clears the text body) and Delete (204) follow; Get after delete returns an error that errors.As matches as *mailtrap.NotFoundError
  • Old surface — client.EmailTemplates.List(ctx) still returns a bare slice, and staticcheck reports no SA1019 for it

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added template management with options to create, view, update, delete, and list templates across paginated results.
    • Added an example demonstrating template management workflows.
  • Documentation
    • Marked template management as experimental and the legacy email-template API as deprecated, with guidance to use Templates instead.

- Client.Templates sends flat request bodies and unwraps the data envelope, matching EmailCampaigns.
- List returns the page with Pagination; All follows next_token across pages.
- The path stays token-scoped (/api/templates), like the existing EmailTemplates resource.
- Client.EmailTemplates and its methods are marked Deprecated in favour of Client.Templates.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The client now exposes a paginated /api/templates service with list, iteration, get, create, update, and delete operations. The change adds tests and an example, and marks the existing email-template API as deprecated in favor of the new service.

Changes

Template management

Layer / File(s) Summary
Template types and client wiring
templates.go, client.go
Adds public template and request types, listing options, and the Templates service field. NewClient initializes the new service.

templates.go, templates_test.go
Adds paginated listing and iteration across pages. Tests cover query options, decoded results, and page order.
Individual template operations
templates.go, templates_test.go
Adds get, create, update, and delete operations. Tests check request bodies, decoded responses, and status codes.
Example and deprecation guidance
examples/templates/main.go, email_templates.go, README.md
Adds an example that creates, lists, updates, and deletes templates. Marks the legacy email-template API as deprecated and updates the README functionality list.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 11.11% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 9 functions across 5 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description covers the motivation, changes, and test plan, but it materially contradicts the changeset: it says the old surface is not deprecated and has no Deprecated marker, while the changeset adds deprecation notices. It also omits the template’s Images and GIFs section.

Resolution

Update the description to accurately state that the old service, client field, and legacy types or methods are deprecated in favor of Client.Templates. Correct the staticcheck expectation to match the deprecation notices. Add the Images and GIFs section, or state that it is not applicable.

Confirm that the Mailtrap app examples match this template sample.

This new public example uses client.Templates to create, paginate, update, and delete templates. Confirm that the equivalent in-app examples show accurate client initialization, request fields, and pagination. Update them if needed.

- Remove the Deprecated: markers from EmailTemplates and the README
  label, and point to Client.Templates with a plain doc line. SA1019
  would flag working code, and the public spec still calls
  /api/email_templates the stable surface.
- Make UpdateTemplateRequest.BodyText and BodyHTML *string, so
  mailtrap.Ptr("") clears a body instead of omitempty dropping it.
- Cover All sending per_page on every page and stopping at a page error.
