Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

mailer

This is a Node.js module that exports a function named mailer.

The function relies on several packages:

  • path: a built-in Node.js package that allows the module to resolve file paths.
  • nodemailer: a package that enables email functionality.
  • nodemailer-express-handlebars: a package that allows for the use of Handlebars templates within emails.

The mailer function takes in several parameters:

  • from: the email address of the sender.
  • to: the email address of the recipient.
  • template: the name of the Handlebars template that should be used when constructing the email.
  • data: an object containing the context data that should be used when rendering the Handlebars template.
  • user: the username for the email account from which the email should be sent.
  • pass: the password for the email account from which the email should be sent.

The mailer function creates a nodemailer Transport object using the gmail service and the provided user and pass. It then uses the nodemailer-express-handlebars package to configure the Transport object to use Handlebars templates.

The function constructs a mailOptions object that contains information about the email, including the sender, recipient, subject, and the Handlebars template and context data that should be used. Finally, it calls the sendMail method on the Transport object with the mailOptions object as a parameter. If the email is successfully sent, it logs a message indicating this. If there is an error sending the email, it logs an error message.
