Send emails with Node.js

Call the send API from Node.js. There is no PostShiba SDK.

Call POST /sends with fetch. PostShiba has no npm package. Use AUTH PLAIN if you send through SMTP.

send.js
1 const response = await fetch(
2 "https://postshiba.com/api/v1/teams/1/clusters/4/sends",
3 {
4 method: "POST",
5 headers: {
6 Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY",
7 "Content-Type": "application/json",
8 },
9 body: JSON.stringify({
10 send: {
11 from: "hello@mail.example.com",
12 to: ["you@example.com"],
13 subject: "PostShiba test",
14 text: "hello from PostShiba",
15 html: "<p>hello from PostShiba</p>",
16 unique_args: { campaign_id: "cmp_123", site: "docs" },
17 },
18 }),
19 }
20 );
21 const body = await response.json();
22 console.log(body.queued, body.message_id);

SMTP with nodemailer

smtp.js
1 import nodemailer from "nodemailer";
2
3 const transport = nodemailer.createTransport({
4 host: "smtp.postshiba.com",
5 port: 587,
6 secure: false,
7 auth: { user: "smtp_9", pass: "YOUR_PASSWORD" },
8 authMethod: "PLAIN",
9 });
10
11 await transport.sendMail({
12 from: "hello@mail.example.com",
13 to: "you@example.com",
14 subject: "PostShiba test",
15 text: "hello from PostShiba",
16 headers: {
17 "X-Capsule-Unique-Args": JSON.stringify({
