Features

• Email Sending: Easily send emails using the Mailgun API.
• Attachment Support: Send emails with attachments.
• Requires Core Package: This package requires the @messagekit/core package for functionality.

Usage

Sending an Email

The sendEmail function can be used as follows:

import { sendEmail } from '@messagekit/core';

const emailMessage = {
  from: [{ email: '[email protected]', name: 'Sender Name' }],
  to: [{ email: '[email protected]', name: 'Recipient Name' }],
  subject: 'Hello from MessageKit Mailgun',
  text: 'This is a test email sent using MessageKit with Mailgun.',
  html: '<p>This is a test email sent using MessageKit with Mailgun.</p>',
  attachments: [
    {
      content: 'base64-encoded-content',
      filename: 'attachment.txt',
      path: '/path/to/attachment.txt',
    },
  ],
};

const config = {
  PROVIDER_NAME: 'mailgun',
  MAILGUN_API_KEY: process.env.MAILGUN_API_KEY,
  MAILGUN_API_URL: process.env.MAILGUN_API_URL, // Optional
};

sendEmail(emailMessage, config)
  .then(response => {
    if (response.success) {
      console.log('Email sent successfully:', response.data);
    } else {
      console.error('Error sending email:', response.messages);
    }
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error('Error sending email:', error);
  });

Configuration

Configuration for the sendEmail function can be defined in a .env file. The naming convention for the configuration variables is as follows:

• PROVIDER_NAME: The name of the provider to use.
• MAILGUN_API_KEY: The API key for authenticating with the Mailgun API.
• MAILGUN_API_URL: An optional custom API URL.

Example .env file:

MAILGUN_API_KEY=your_mailgun_api_key
MAILGUN_API_URL=https://api.mailgun.net

Extensibility

The @messagekit/mailgun package is an implementation of the Mailgun email provider. The core functionality is provided by the @messagekit/core package, which is designed to be extensible. You can create new email providers by implementing the EmailProviderFactoryInterface and EmailSenderInterface in the core package. This allows you to add support for additional email services in the future.

Rationale

The @messagekit/mailgun package is designed to provide integration with the Mailgun API for managing email sending workflows in TypeScript applications. By using the core package, developers can easily integrate Mailgun capabilities into their domain-driven designs and AI-driven processes.
