如何在meteor.js中创建与我们联系表格

Question

I made a contact us form and having problem that how a user submitted details will be delivered to my email. I am newbie and do not understand this from Meteor Docs "the MAIL_URL environment variable should be of the form smtp://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT/ " I want to deploy my meteor app on Meteor free server so please guide me how i should write the above URL thing in serevr/smpt You can have look at my source code client/templates/contact_us/contact_us.html and contact_us.js and server/common.js and can tell me if my rest of code is also correct to perform the contact us form functionality.

Answer 1

You should create an account on Mailgun (default by Meteor).

Let's say you use your gmail account which is waquar@gmail.com and your password is pass123:

Meteor.startup(function() {
    process.env.MAIL_URL = 'smtp://waquar:pass123@smtp.gmail.com:587/'
});

Both your server method and client code seem to be correct, try steps above and let us know if it works.

Answer 2

I have in my ~/.bashrc of my dev environment something like:

export MAIL_URL='smtp://myemail%40example.com:mypass@mysmtpserver.com:587/'

You can test with a server.js like:

Email.send({
  from: "meteor.email.2014@example.com",
  to: "your-personal-email-here@example.com",
  subject: "Meteor Can Send Emails",
  text: "Its pretty easy to send emails."
});

as described in https://github.com/nelsonic/hapi-email for gmail. After receiving the test email, you can remove that file.

In production I use mup with the save env variable.
