emailjs (v0.3.6) Build Status

send emails, html and attachments (files, streams and strings) from node.js to any smtp server

INSTALLING

npm install emailjs

FEATURES

  • works with SSL and TLS smtp servers (ex: gmail)
  • supports smtp authentication (PLAIN, LOGIN, CRAMMD5)
  • emails are queued and the queue is sent asynchronously
  • supports sending html emails and emails with multiple attachments (MIME)
  • attachments can be added as strings, streams or file paths
  • works with nodejs 3.8 and above

REQUIRES

  • access to an SMTP Server (ex: gmail)

EXAMPLE USAGE - text only emails

var email 	= require("./path/to/emailjs/email");
var server 	= email.server.connect({
   user:    "username", 
   password:"password", 
   host:    "smtp.gmail.com", 
   ssl:     true
   
});

// send the message and get a callback with an error or details of the message that was sent
server.send({
   text:    "i hope this works", 
   from:    "you <[email protected]>", 
   to:      "someone <[email protected]>, another <[email protected]>",
   cc:      "else <[email protected]>",
   subject: "testing emailjs"
}, function(err, message) { console.log(err || message); });

EXAMPLE USAGE - html emails and attachments

var email 	= require("./path/to/emailjs/email");
var server 	= email.server.connect({
   user:	"username", 
   password:"password", 
   host:	"smtp.gmail.com", 
   ssl:		true
});

var message	= {
   text:	"i hope this works", 
   from:	"you <[email protected]>", 
   to:		"someone <[email protected]>, another <[email protected]>",
   cc:		"else <[email protected]>",
   subject:	"testing emailjs",
   attachment: 
   [
      {data:"<html>i <i>hope</i> this works!</html>", alternative:true},
      {path:"path/to/file.zip", type:"application/zip", name:"renamed.zip"}
   ]
};

// send the message and get a callback with an error or details of the message that was sent
server.send(message, function(err, message) { console.log(err || message); });

// you can continue to send more messages with successive calls to 'server.send', 
// they will be queued on the same smtp connection

// or you can create a new server connection with 'email.server.connect' 
// to asynchronously send individual emails instead of a queue

API

email.server.connect(options)

// options is an object with the following keys
options =
{
	user 		// username for logging into smtp 
	password // password for logging into smtp
	host		// smtp host
	port		// smtp port (if null a standard port number will be used)
	ssl		// boolean or object {key, ca, cert} (if exists, ssl connection will be made)
	tls		// boolean (if true, starttls will be initiated)
	timeout	// max number of milliseconds to wait for smtp responses (defaults to 5000)
	domain	// domain to greet smtp with (defaults to os.hostname)
}

email.server.send(message, callback)

// message can be a smtp.Message (as returned by email.message.create)
// or an object identical to the first argument accepted by email.message.create

// callback will be executed with (err, message)
// either when message is sent or an error has occurred

message

// headers is an object ('from' and 'to' are required)
// returns a Message object

// you can actually pass more message headers than listed, the below are just the
// most common ones you would want to use

headers =
{
	text		// text of the email 
	from		// sender of the format (address or name <address> or "name" <address>)
	to			// recipients (same format as above), multiple recipients are separated by a comma
	cc			// carbon copied recipients (same format as above)
	bcc		// blind carbon copied recipients (same format as above)
	subject	// string subject of the email
  attachment // one attachment or array of attachments
}

attachment

// can be called multiple times, each adding a new attachment
// options is an object with the following possible keys:

options =
{
    // one of these fields is required
    path      // string to where the file is located
    data      // string of the data you want to attach
    stream    // binary stream that will provide attachment data (make sure it is in the paused state)
              // better performance for binary streams is achieved if buffer.length % (76*6) == 0
              // current max size of buffer must be no larger than Message.BUFFERSIZE
  
    // optionally these fields are also accepted
    type	      // string of the file mime type
    name        // name to give the file as perceived by the recipient
    alternative // if true, will be attached inline as an alternative (also defaults type='text/html')
    inline      // if true, will be attached inline
    encoded     // set this to true if the data is already base64 encoded, (avoid this if possible)
    headers     // object containing header=>value pairs for inclusion in this attachment's header
    related     // an array of attachments that you want to be related to the parent attachment
}
