Official Mailtrap Node.js client

This NPM package offers integration with the official API for Mailtrap.

Quickly add email sending functionality to your Node.js application with Mailtrap.

Compatibility with previous releases

Versions of this package up to 2.0.2 were an unofficial client developed by @vchin. Package version 3 is a completely new package. It is still under development and does not support the testing API yet. Please continue using version 2 if you need access to the testing API.

Installation

Use yarn or npm to install the package:

yarn add mailtrap

# or, if you are using NPM:
npm install mailtrap

Usage

Minimal

import { MailtrapClient } from "mailtrap"

/**
 * For this example to work, you need to set up a sending domain,
 * and obtain a token that is authorized to send from the domain.
 */

const TOKEN = "";
const SENDER_EMAIL = "";
const RECIPIENT_EMAIL = "";

const client = new MailtrapClient({ token: TOKEN });

const sender = { name: "Mailtrap Test", email: SENDER_EMAIL };

client
  .send({
    from: sender,
    to: [{ email: RECIPIENT_EMAIL }],
    subject: "Hello from Mailtrap!",
    text: "Welcome to Mailtrap Sending!",
  })
  .then(console.log)
