Sending Templated Emails with Node.JS

[@jared4670]

Could you do a new video using the latest version of email-templates with handlebars and localization examples? I would greatly appreciate it and I am sure many other people would as well.

[@siddhibudhale4352]

I have existing code in node js on aws lambda and in that there is email body. Email has feedback in it. I want to make that feedback in email in tabular form. How can I do that with existing code?? Can you please guide me?

[@italogothardo]

[@liedebunker1253]

Hi. When I tried to run "node index.js", I got a error, saying that "TypeError: EmailTemplate is not a constructor". Can you help please? Thanks!

[@ritzuco]

+Alberto Serrano Thank you!

[@duta5272]

Thank you. Very helpful tutorial.

[@GeekLaunch]

Thanks for watching!

[@elementfayt]

I'm using webstorm IDE and when I write the code in for your tutorial it all comes back as errs, because of stuff like =>. Any idea why this is? Is there something I need to have installed first?

[@GeekLaunch]

+elementfayt make sure you have support for recent ecmascript features enabled.

[@elementfayt]

Thanks for the quick reply I was set on 5.1 now i'm on 6.0.

Hi I followed the tutorial I get this error : (node:31292) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection. This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). (rejection id: 3) any idea what went wrong?

[@rogerbob3807]

I got the same error. Were you able to resolve?

[@jared4670]

As per the description: "NOTE: The latest major version of email-templates contains breaking changes that aren't compatible with the code shown in this video. If you want to follow the code shown in this video exactly, install email-templates@2,"

[@jeanc2694]

How would you go about adding in line images to this? Great video btw

[@jared4670]

same way you would need to include images in normal HTML. img tag with a src pointing to an externally hosted image. Or if the image is hosted on your website then include the src location in the same way it can be visible externally.

[@chCasperr]

no i am using hotmail

[@eduardohernandez552]

I would like to know more about the security of this method? These are super new concepts for me? Is this secure? Excellent material btw, thank you so much

[@GeekLaunch]

This is a slightly outdated tutorial now, but the 'security' portion should be fine unless you allow people to send email or modify templates of their own volition. Otherwise all you're doing is telling your email server to send a message to another email server using templates that you wrote.

[@vitaliyduvalko4335]

now the error is thrown: EmailTemplate is not a costructor

[@GeekLaunch]

Thanks for pointing that out. I've updated the description of this video and the README on GitHub!

[@antoniomassa8607]

Where is creds.js? I lost it. Thank you

[@GeekLaunch]

+Antonio Massa You need to create that file yourself. It can just be a json file with your username and password for your email.

[@antoniomassa8607]

Thank you

[@kisorjs4993]

[@GeekLaunch]

+kisor js I'm sorry, I don't know angular

[@dropdabomb404]

[@GeekLaunch]

+jean t Thank you!

[@johe5644]

Hey, Nice Tutorial. It helped a lot. I dont get the Creds.js implemented. Can anyone Help :) Best wishes Josef

[@jared4670]

You have to create the file yourself: module.exports = { HOST: 'INSERT_HOSTNAME_HERE', USERNAME: 'INSERT_USERNAME_HERE', PASSWORD: 'INSERT_PASSWORD_HERE'};

[@aaweshaminsayyed1722]

@@jared4670 Hi, i am new to node js. created creds.js (module.exports = { HOST: 'INSERT_HOSTNAME_HERE', USERNAME: 'INSERT_USERNAME_HERE', PASSWORD: 'INSERT_PASSWORD_HERE'};) what is the host name here? is it the machine name or mail hosting service name?

[@aaweshaminsayyed1722]

getting this error now. "Error: Missing credentials for "PLAIN" " downgraded to email_template version 2.. the flow did work but errored out with this error.
