how to call email templates with a custom module

Question

Hello
I'm going to add some code to my custom module to be able to call email templates and choose related template with my module through a drop down selector list, so any body know how to start to do that?
i already made 2 template to my custom module inside email.template  and i tested with mail.compose.message module and it worked fine
i watched to some similar modules but actually they made me more confused.. so i just want to call my modules own templates with a Many2one field and nothing

If you wish send the email from any method, try following code:
@api.multi
def action_send_mail(self):
for rec in self:
rec.template_id.send_mail(rec.id) # Call send_mail method of

This may help you :
# template id is nothing but xml id of that particular template
template = self.env['ir.model.data'].get_object('# object_name',template_id)

# Send out the e-mail template to the user
template_obj = self.env['mail.template'].browse(template.id)
template_obj.send_mail( # record_id )

<field name="template_id" attrs="{'readonly': [ ('state', 'not in', ['draft'])], 'required': True}"/>

and a code for calling related template (not working )

template_id = fields.Many2one(

'email.template',

string='Template',

track_visibility='onchange',

default=default_template)

@api.multi

def default_template(self):

note = ''

default_template_obj = self.env['email.template']

template_id = default_template_obj.search([('model', '=', 'res.correspond.int')], limit=5)

if template_id:

for i in self:

note += '\n' + i.note

default_template_obj.note(template_id.id, self._context.get('active_id'), )

return
