sendgrid-stub

A node.js stub for the SendGrid library - this lets you send and receive emails locally during testing

Usage

Install

npm install sendgrid-stub

Use

var MailClient = require('sendgrid-stub').MailClient;
var SendGrid = require('sendgrid-stub').SendGrid;
var localAppserverMailClient = new MailClient("./sendgridEmails/");
var sendgrid = new SendGrid("username", "password");

//Send the email
sendgrid.send({
	to: "receiver@example.com",
	from: "hello@example.com",
	subject: "Test mail",
	html: "<b>Content</b>"
	text: "Content"
}, callback);

//Receive it again
localAppserverMailClient.getLatest(function(err, email){
	console.log(email);
}

//Purge inbox
localDashboardMailClient.deleteAll(function(){
	console.log("Deleted")
})

Background

I use this mock for testing webapps which make use of the SendGrid service. Just replace the sendgrid library with this stub, and pick up your e-mails with the mail client from: process.cwd()+"/sendgridEmails/"

All emails are written to disk as json objects.
