What is the safest and most elegant way to send a E-Mail from javascript within a domain? We have our own mail server and I'm trying to avoid 3rd party API's as smtpjs or emailjs. Is this possible?
You can't send email via JavaScript alone. You can either open the mail client on the users device via window.open('mailto:{{to_address}}')
, or by calling an API that's hosted on a server (Using nodejs
with mandrill
would work for this). For an example on how to do that, there's a pretty exhaustive code sample here .
In nodejs you can use nodemailer to connect your email server and send emails.
Here is a sample code to do that (from Nodemailer's Docs ):
const nodemailer = require("nodemailer");
// async..await is not allowed in global scope, must use a wrapper
async function main() {
// Generate test SMTP service account from ethereal.email
// Only needed if you don't have a real mail account for testing
let testAccount = await nodemailer.createTestAccount();
// create reusable transporter object using the default SMTP transport
let transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
host: "smtp.ethereal.email",
port: 587,
secure: false, // true for 465, false for other ports
auth: {
user: testAccount.user, // generated ethereal user
pass: testAccount.pass, // generated ethereal password
},
});
// send mail with defined transport object
let info = await transporter.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: %s", info.messageId);
// Message sent: <b658f8ca-6296-ccf4-8306-87d57a0b4321@example.com>
// Preview only available when sending through an Ethereal account
console.log("Preview URL: %s", nodemailer.getTestMessageUrl(info));
// Preview URL: https://ethereal.email/message/WaQKMgKddxQDoou...
}
main().catch(console.error);
