The Nodemailer module makes it easy to send emails from your computer
The Nodemailer module makes it easy to send emails from your computer.
The Nodemailer module can be downloaded and installed using npm:
C:\Users\Your Name>npm install nodemailer
After you have downloaded the Nodemailer module, you can include the module in any application:
var nodemailer = require('nodemailer');
Now you are ready to send emails from your server.
Use the username and password from your selected email provider to send an email. This tutorial will show you how to use your Gmail account to send an email:
var nodemailer = require('nodemailer');
var transporter =
nodemailer.createTransport({
service: 'gmail',
auth: {
user: 'youremail@gmail.com',
pass: 'yourpassword'
}
});
var mailOptions = {
from: 'youremail@gmail.com',
to: 'myfriend@yahoo.com',
subject: 'Sending Email using Node.js',
text:
'That was easy!'
};
transporter.sendMail(mailOptions,
function(error, info){
if (error) {
console.log(error);
} else {
console.log('Email sent: ' + info.response);
}
});
And that's it! Now your server is able to send emails.
To send an email to more than one receiver, add them to the "to" property of the mailOptions object, separated by commas:
Send email to more than one address:
var mailOptions = {
from: 'youremail@gmail.com',
to: 'myfriend@yahoo.com,
myotherfriend@yahoo.com',
subject: 'Sending Email using Node.js',
text:
'That was easy!'
}
To send HTML formatted text in your email, use the "html" property instead of the "text" property:
Send email containing HTML:
var mailOptions = {
from: 'youremail@gmail.com',
to: 'myfriend@yahoo.com',
subject: 'Sending Email using Node.js',
html:
'<h1>Welcome</h1><p>That was easy!</p>'
}
