Secret Santa Assignment Sender

This application randomizes Secret Santa assignments and emails everyone in your party without anyone knowing who others got.

I wrote this because I wanted to organise a Secret Santa gift exchange, with the following requirements:

1. No "central organiser" should know about the assignments
2. No using online software that would potentially save emails and send spam later

To use:

On Mac OSX, run /usr/sbin/sendmail on local port 25 (default). You need Ruby 2.* installed.

Replace the data array in run.rb with your group's names and emails.

bundle install
ruby run.rb

To do a test run, DRY_RUN=true ruby run.rb

To save the output (and spoil the fun), SAVE_OUTPUT=true ruby run.rb

Run tests:

rspec assigner_spec (does not actually send emails)
