NodeJS packagehttps://www.npmjs.com/package/nodemailer

Network Connection needs

This integration needs network access to the server where the service is running.

See the Network access page for details about how to achieve that.

Credential configuration​

To configure this credential you need the host, port, username and password to connect to the SMTP server.

Here you have an example of a filled credential configuration form in YepCode:

The title is the triggering text for YepCode to autocomplete the script

Integration​

New integration from credential
const nodemailerTransport = yepcode.integration.nodemailer('credential-slug')
tip

With Nodemailer, you can set any of the extra config params you can see here using credential extended options.

You also may look to other transport protocols if you need.

New integration from plain authentication data
const nodemailer = require('nodemailer');

// create reusable transporter object using the default SMTP transport
const nodemailerTransport = nodemailer.createTransport({
  host: "smtp.ethereal.email",
  port: 587,
  secure: false,
  connectionTimeout: 100,
  auth: {
    user: "user",
    pass: "password",
  },
});

Verify SMTP connection configuration​

Verify SMTP connection configuration (async/await)
// verify connection configuration
try {
    const verified = await nodemailerTransport.verify()
    console.log("Server is ready to take our messages");
} catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    throw error;
}
Verify SMTP connection configuration (Promise)
// verify connection configuration
nodemailerTransport.verify().then(() => {
    console.log("Server is ready to take our messages");
}).catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
    throw error;
});
Verify SMTP connection configuration (callback)
// verify connection configuration
nodemailerTransport.verify(function(error, success) {
  if (error) {
    console.error(error);
  } else {
    console.log("Server is ready to take our messages");
  }
});

Send mail​

Send mail (async/await)

try {
    const info = await nodemailerTransport.sendMail({
        from: '"Fred Foo 👻" <foo@example.com>', // sender address
        to: "bar@example.com, baz@example.com", // list of receivers
        subject: "Hello ✔", // Subject line
        text: "Hello world?", // plain text body
        html: "<b>Hello world?</b>", // html body
    })
    console.log("Message sent: " + info.messageId);
    console.log("Preview URL: " + nodemailer.getTestMessageUrl(info));
} catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    throw error;
}
Send mail (Promise)
nodemailerTransport.sendMail({
    from: '"Fred Foo 👻" <foo@example.com>', // sender address
    to: "bar@example.com, baz@example.com", // list of receivers
    subject: "Hello ✔", // Subject line
    text: "Hello world?", // plain text body
    html: "<b>Hello world?</b>", // html body
}).then((info) => {
    console.log("Message sent: " + info.messageId);
    console.log("Preview URL: " + nodemailer.getTestMessageUrl(info));
}).catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
    throw error;
});
Send mail (callback)
nodemailerTransport.sendMail({
    from: '"Fred Foo 👻" <foo@example.com>', // sender address
    to: "bar@example.com, baz@example.com", // list of receivers
    subject: "Hello ✔", // Subject line
    text: "Hello world?", // plain text body
    html: "<b>Hello world?</b>", // html body
}, (error, info) => {
  if (error) {
    console.error(error);
  } else {
    console.log("Message sent: " + info.messageId);
    console.log("Preview URL: "  nodemailer.getTestMessageUrl(info));
  }
