Sending a Message

var postage = require('postage')('YOUR API KEY');
  
var options = { 
  recipients: 'email@address.com',
  subject: 'Subject Line',
  from: 'sender@example.org',
  content: {
    'text/html': '<h1>Some awesome content</h1>',
    'text/plain': 'Plain text goes here (if any)'
  }
};

postage.send(options, function callback(error, msg) {
  if (error) {
    console.error(error);
  } else {
    console.log(message);
  }
});

alternatively you can use templates (which are setup on postageapp.com)

var options = {
  recipients: 'email@address.com',
  subject: 'Subject Line',
  from: 'sender@example.org",
  templates: 'my_template',
  variables: {
    variable1: 'value',
    variable2: 'value2
  }
};

sending the message to multiple recipients

var options = {
  recipients: ['email@address.com', 'email2@address2.com']
};

sending the message to multiple recipients with variable data

recipients: {
  "email@example.com": {
    'variable': 'Value'
  }, 
  "email2@example.com": {
    'variable': 'Value2'
  }
};
