I am generating a PDF client side with jsPDF. I need to send it to my Express server using Axios. At the end I need to send it via email with Nodemailer. Where am I wrong?
::
//doc creation ....
var res = doc.output('datauristring'); //this line!!!!
axios.post('/mailsender', res).then((res) => {
if(res.status === 'ok') console.log("Yeah!");
else console.log(":(");
});
::
...
api_router.post('/mailsender', (req, res) => {
mail.send(req.body, (res) => {
res.status(200).json({"status": res ? 'ok' : 'error' });
});
});
: :
const nodemailer = require('nodemailer');
let transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
host: 'smtp.mail.yahoo.com',
port: 465,
secure: true,
auth: {
user: 'example@yahoo.it',
pass: 'password'
}
});
exports.send = function (data, callback) {
let mailOptions = {
from: '"My application" <example@myapp.com>',
to: "receiverAddress",
subject: "Attachment experiment",
text: "My <3",
attachments: [
{
filename: 'attachment.pdf',
content: data,
contentType: 'application/pdf',
encoding: 'base64' //this line!!!!
}
]
};
transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, (error, info) => {
if (error) {
return console.log(error);
callback(false);
}
callback(true);
});
}
All is working fine, except that if I try to open the attachment in the received mail, Preview says that the file is damaged. The same if I try to open it with google chrome or with other PDF readers. Probably, the two lines with a comment has to be changed. Thank you for your attention!
It was very simple: I had only to change the the attachment part in this way:
attachments: [
{
path: data
}
]
Below code worked for me, i used axios in client to post the pdf and nodemailer in server side in node.js to send pdf as attachment
Client:
const out = pdf.output('datauristring');
const response = await axios.post(`/email/sendReport`, {
pdf: out.split('base64,')[1],
});
Server:
let mailOptions = {
from: '"My application" <example@myapp.com>',
to: "receiverAddress",
subject: "Attachment experiment",
text: "My <3",
attachments: [
{
filename: 'attachment.pdf',
content: req.body.pdf,
contentType: 'application/pdf',
encoding: 'base64'
}
]
};
I am saving pdf on the server and also sending pdf in Laravel mail from jsPDF.I'm posting my code.perhaps it helps someone.
sendPdfInMail() { const doc = new jsPDF() doc.text('Pdf from jspdf,', 10. 10) var formData = new FormData() formData,append('file'. doc.output('datauristring'),split('base64.')[1]) axiosIns,post('auth/currency_statement', formData: { headers: { 'Content-Type', 'multipart/form-data', }. }).then(function (response) { console.log(response) }).catch(function (err) { console.log(err,response) alert('error') }) },
