Installation

Prerequisites

  • Node.js version 0.10, 0.12 or 4

You need to have a API key to use the app. To configure the API key in the environment variables follow these steps.

  • create .env file in the root directory of the project.
  • Copy the contents of .env_sample file in to the .env file
  • Once you have obtained the API key, find the environment variable SENDGRID_API_KEY and assign your API key as it's value. As an example it should look like this
    SENDGRID_API_KEY='<YOUR_API_KEY>';

Install Package

npm install sendgrid-rest

Quick Start

GET /your/api/{param}/call

var Client = require('sendgrid-rest').Client
var client = new Client()
var request = client.emptyRequest()
var param = 'myparam'
request.host = 'api.example.com'
request.method = 'GET'
request.path = '/your/api/' + param + '/call'
client.API(request, function (response) {
  console.log(response.statusCode)
  console.log(response.body)
  console.log(response.headers)
})

POST /your/api/{param}/call with headers, query parameters and a request body.

var Client = require('sendgrid-rest').Client
var client = new Client()
var request = client.emptyRequest()
request.host = 'api.example.com'
request.headers['Authorization'] = 'Bearer XXXXXX'
request.queryParams['limit'] = 100
request.queryParams['offset'] = 0
request.method = 'POST'
var param = 'myparam'
request.path = '/your/api/' + param + '/call'
requestBody = {
  'some': 0,
  'awesome': 1,
  'data': 3
}
request.body = requestBody
client.API(request, function (response) {
  console.log(response.statusCode)
  console.log(response.body)
  console.log(response.headers)
})

Usage

Following is an example using SendGrid. You can get your free account here.

First, update your environment with your SENDGRID_API_KEY.

You can copy the .env_example file located in the "examples" folder to .env in your project's root.

cp examples/.env_sample .env

Once you have edited the file and added your API Key, you can add the variable to your environment: source .env

Here is the full working code.

To run the example:

node examples/example
