Build Status

hapi-sendgrid

Hapi.js plugin that exposes the SendGrid-nodejs library for sending emails through SendGrid.

Installation

npm install hapi-sendgrid --save

Usage

First, the SendGrid-nodejs requires authentication via either username/password OR an API key. When registering your plugin with Hapi, you must specify only one of the two. The accepted parameters are:

  • username and password
  • apiKey

Here's a simple example:

server.register({
    register: require('hapi-sendgrid'),
    options: {
        apiKey: 'myApiKey'
    }
 }, function (err) {

     if (err) {
         console.log('Failed loading plugin');
     }
 });

Once registered, you can access the plugin like so:

var sendGridClient = server.plugins['hapi-sendgrid'].client;

Once you have the client, you may access all of the existing functionality of the SendGrid-nodejs library.

Setting Default Send options

In addition to exposing the SendGrid-nodejs client, the plugin also introduces the ability to set default options that can be used to avoid having to set email options, such as from:, over and over again. Passing in an emailOptions object to the plugin, will merge those options with any specific options you may set when sending an email. For example:

server.register({
    register: require('hapi-sendgrid'),
    options: {
        apiKey: 'myApiKey',
        emailOptions: {
          from: '[email protected]'
        }
    }
 }, function (err) {
   if (err) { console.log('Failed loading plugin'); }

   var client = server.plugins['hapi-sendgrid'].client;

   // 'to:' is specified by default options
   var email = new client.sendGridClient.Email({
     to: '[email protected]',
     subject: 'whatup playa',
     text: 'word'
   });

   client.send(email).then(function(result) {
     console.log('SENT!');
     return done();
   }).catch(function(err) {
     console.error(err);
   });
});

In this example, setting the from property isn't necessary because the from property is inherited from the default emailOptions.

Setting Client options

You may also change how the SendGrid-nodejs library behaves, such as changing the endpoint, by passing any of the following options into plugin using the clientOptions object. For example:

server.register({
    register: require('hapi-sendgrid'),
    options: {
        apiKey: 'myApiKey',
        clientOptions: {
          protocol: "http",
          host: "sendgrid.org",
          endpoint: "/send",
          port: "80"
        }
    }
 }, function (err) {

     if (err) {
         console.log('Failed loading plugin');
     }
 });
