[Flow] StandaloneView for emails and templatePathAndFileName

Hi all,

In TYPO3 Flow I would like to use a template for sending out an email. I 
have been using this functionality before in Extbase, but was wondering 
if the code below is the way to go to actually set the 
templatePathAndFileName or is there a better approach where I don't have 
to hardcode the dir/to/file after the FLOW_PATH_ROOT constant?

It will be called from within an action within a controller...

$emailView = new \TYPO3\Fluid\View\StandaloneView();
$emailView->setFormat('html');

$templatePathAndFileName = FLOW_PATH_ROOT . 
'Packages/Application/Vendor.PackageName/Resources/Private/Templates/Front/Password/Email.html';
		$emailView->setTemplatePathAndFilename($templatePathAndFileName);

...
...
...

$emailBody = $emailView->render();

Thanks,

Kind regards,

Mark Kuiphuis
