sails-hook-sendemail

Helper to send emails for Sails v1

## How to use

Use the sails-hook-organics features with some extra features:

await sails.helpers.email.send.with({
  from,
  to,
  subject,
  template: 'email-contact',
});

Configuration

Default configuration settings:

// config/email.js
module.exports.email = {
  adapter: 'log' // 'sendgrid', 'mailgun', 'smtp', 'log'
  validateEmailHelper: 'email.isValidEmailAddress',
  settings: {} // Sendgrid and Mailgun settings, SMTP 'nodemailer-html-to-text' options
  transport: {} // SMTP transport
}

## Validate Email Helper

// /config/email.js

module.exports.email = {
  validateEmailHelper: 'my-custom-validation',
};

This configuration uses sails.helpers.myCustomValidation(emailAddres) helper with the emailAddress as input.

Example:

Run:

npm install validator

If you haven't installed sails run:

npm install -g sails

Then create a helper:

sails generate helper my-custom-validation

Edit the content to include:

// api/helpers/my-custom-vadilation.js

module.exports = {
  inputs: {
    emailAddress: {
      type: 'string',
      required: true,
      isEmail: true
    }
  }
  fn: function({ emailAddress }) {
    const { isEmail } = require('validator');

    return isEmail(emailAddress);
  }
};
