EmailSender

EmailSender

An EmailSender is responsible for sending the email, e.g. via an SMTP connection or using some other mail-sending API. By default, the EmailPlugin uses the

NodemailerEmailSender, but it is also possible to supply a custom implementation:

Example

const sgMail = require('@sendgrid/mail');

sgMail.setApiKey(process.env.SENDGRID_API_KEY);

class SendgridEmailSender implements EmailSender {
async send(email: EmailDetails) {
await sgMail.send({
to: email.recipient,
from: email.from,
subject: email.subject,
html: email.body,
});
}
}

const config: VendureConfig = {
logger: new DefaultLogger({ level: LogLevel.Debug })
// ...
plugins: [
EmailPlugin.init({
// ... template, handler config omitted
transport: { type: 'none' },
emailSender: new SendgridEmailSender(),
}),
],
};
Signature
interface EmailSender extends InjectableStrategy {
send: (email: EmailDetails, options: EmailTransportOptions) => void | Promise<void>;
}
