npm email client code example

Example 1: nodemailer

var nodemailer = require('nodemailer');
var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
 service: 'gmail',
 auth: {
        user: '[email protected]',
        pass: 'yourpassword'
    }
});
const mailOptions = {
  from: '[email protected]', // sender address
  to: '[email protected]', // list of receivers
  subject: 'Subject of your email', // Subject line
  html: '<p>Your html here</p>'// plain text body
};
transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function (err, info) {
   if(err)
     console.log(err)
   else
     console.log(info);
});

Example 2: npm read email

var Imap = require("imap");

var Promise = require("bluebird");
Promise.longStackTraces();

var imapConfig = {
    user: 'USERNAME',
    password: 'PASSWORD',
    host: 'HOST',
    port: 993,
    tls: true
};

var imap = new Imap(imapConfig);
Promise.promisifyAll(imap);

imap.once("ready", execute);
imap.once("error", function(err) {
    log.error("Connection error: " + err.stack);
});

imap.connect();

function execute() {
    imap.openBox("INBOX", false, function(err, mailBox) {
        if (err) {
            console.error(err);
            return;
        }
        imap.search(["UNSEEN"], function(err, results) {
            if(!results || !results.length){console.log("No unread mails");imap.end();return;}
            /* mark as seen
            imap.setFlags(results, ['\\Seen'], function(err) {
                if (!err) {
                    console.log("marked as read");
                } else {
                    console.log(JSON.stringify(err, null, 2));
                }
            });*/

            });
            f.once("end", function() {
                console.log("Done fetching all unseen messages.");
                imap.end();
            });
        });
    });
}

    console.log("Processing msg #" + seqno);
