Mailjet NodeJs Wrapper

Please welcome the new Mailjet official NodeJS API wrapper!

Mailjet is an Email Service Provider (ESP). Visit the website and get comfortable!

Every code examples can be find on the Mailjet Documentation

(Please refer to the Mailjet Documentation Repository to contribute to the documentation examples)

Getting started

first, create a project folder

mkdir mailjet-project && cd $_

Installation

if you want to get a global installation, you can add -g

npm install node-mailjet

Show me the code

To authenticate, go get your API key, and API secret here, open your favorite text editor and import the mailjet module

var Mailjet = require('node-mailjet').connect('api key', 'api secret');

Get cosy with Mailjet

Save your API_KEY and API_SECRET:

echo 'export MJ_APIKEY_PUBLIC=MY_API_KEY' >> ~/.zshrc

echo 'export MJ_APIKEY_PRIVATE=MY_API_SECRET' >> ~/.zshrc

source ~/.zshrc

replace zshrc with bash_profile if you are simply using bash

And use it in your projects

var apiKey = process.env.MJ_APIKEY_PUBLIC,
	apiSecret = process.env.MJ_APIKEY_PRIVATE;

Store a Mailjet resource

// GET resource
var user = Mailjet.get('user');

// POST resource
var sender = Mailjet.post('sender');

Request your resource with a callback function

user.request(function (error, response, body) {
	if (error)
		console.log ('Oops, something went wrong ' + response.statusCode);
	else
		console.log (body);
});

Make the same request with a Promise

the request method actually returns a EventEmitter triggering success and error

user.request()
	.on('error', function (error, response) {})
	.on('success', function (response, body) {});

Pass data to your requests

sender.request({ Email: '[email protected]' })
	.on('success', handleData)
	.on('error', handleError);

Pass parameters as well as a callback

var getContacts = Mailjet.get('contact');

getContacts.request({Limit: 3}, handleContacts);

Request a resource with an ID

getContacts.id(2).request(handleSingleContact);

Request a ressource with an Action

var postContact = Mailjet.post('contact');

postContact.action('managemanycontacts').request({
	ContactLists: MyContactListsArray,
    Contacts: MyContactsArray,
}, handlePostResponse);

Send an Email

var sendEmail = Mailjet.post('send');

var emailData = {
    'FromEmail': '[email protected]',
    'FromName': 'My Name',
    'Subject': 'Test with the NodeJS Mailjet wrapper',
    'Text-part': 'Hello NodeJs !',
    'Recipients': [{'Email': '[email protected]'}],
	'Attachments': [{
		"Content-Type": "text-plain",
		"Filename": "test.txt",
		"Content": "VGhpcyBpcyB5b3VyIGF0dGFjaGVkIGZpbGUhISEK",
	}],
}

sendEmail
	.request(emailData)
    .on('success', handlePostResponse)
    .on('error', handleError);

Send two Emails

var emailData = {
    'FromEmail': '[email protected]',
    'FromName': 'Guillaume badi',
    'Subject': 'Coucou Mailjet2',
    'Text-part': 'Hello World2',
    'Recipients': [{'Email': '[email protected]'}],
}

var emailData2 = emailData;
emailData2['Text-part'] = 'This is another Email';

sendEmail
	.request(emailData)
    .on('success', handleData)
    .on('error', handleError);

sendEmail
	.request(emailData2)
    .on('success', handleData)
    .on('error', handleError);

Have Fun !

var mailjet = require ('./mailjet-client')
    .connect(process.env.MJ_APIKEY_PUBLIC, process.env.MJ_APIKEY_PRIVATE)

function handleError (err) {
  throw new Error(err.ErrorMessage);
}

function newContact (email) {
  mailjet.post('contact')
      .request({Email: email})
      .on('error', handleError);
}

function testEmail (text) {
  email = {};
  email['FromName'] = 'Your Name';
  email['FromEmail'] = 'Your Sender Adress';
  email['Subject'] = 'Test Email';
  email['Recipients'] = [{Email: 'Your email'}];
  email['Text-Part'] = text;

  mailjet.post('send')
    .request(email)
    .on('error', handleError);
}

testEmail('Hello World!');

Run Test
