nodemailer-ses-sender v1.2.0

nodemailer-ses-sender

Send emails through SES with Nodemailer (wrapper for the SES transport in Nodemailer)

Usage

This module requires the environment variables AWS_PROFILE (or the individual AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY) and AWS_REGION to be set.

const emailSender = new EmailsSender();

emailSender.sendEmail({
	from: 'mysender@test.com',
	tags: {
		'myTag': 'test-email'
	},
	html: 'This is the <b>content</b> of this test email',
	subject: 'Test Nodemailer SES',
	receiver: 'myreceiver@test.com'
})

Dry Run

To test the email sending against a local SMTP server, create the EmailSender with a flag, providing host and port of the SMTP server.

const emailSender = new EmailsSender(true, {smtpHost: '127.0.0.1', smtpPort: '587'});

If not provided, SMTP host and port will default to {smtpHost: '127.0.0.1', smtpPort: '587'}

To see how to start a local SMTP server that outputs the emails to STDOUT, check out ./sample/start-smtp-server.js
