## gulp-mail

  

A [gulp](https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp) wrapper for [Nodemailer](https://nodemailer.com) used to quickly send emails from tasks and/or the command-line during development or testing.

`gulp-mail` is based on [gulp-mailer](https://github.com/meerkats/gulp-mailer), which is not available on [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/).

### Installation

Installing via [npm](https://www.npmjs.org/package/gulp-mail):

```sh
npm install --save-dev gulp-mail
```

### Usage

#### `mail(options)`
- options: `Object`

### Options

`gulp-mail` uses Nodemailer v0.7.1, which has been deprecated for some time. It is, however, simple and stable. Available options for `gulp-mail` are:

##### options.smtp
Type: `Object`
Contains required SMTP configuration values. (See the example below.)

##### options.to
Type: `String|Array`
A string or array containing one or more than one recipient address, respectively.

##### options.from
Type: `String`
The display name for the sender.

##### options.subject
Type: `String`
The email subject line. If not provided, a default subject line is generated from the source filename as `[TEST] path.basename`.

##### options.html
Type: `String`
The HTML body of the email. If not provided, the source file becomes the message body.

##### options.text
Type: `String`
The plaintext body of the email. If not provided, Nodemailer generates this based on the source file.

### Example

Currently, `gulp-mail` takes in piped streams and sends emails via SMTP only.

```js
var gulp = require('gulp');
var mail = require('gulp-mail');

var smtpInfo = {
auth: {
user: '[email protected]',
pass: '123456'
},
host: 'smtp.163.com',
secureConnection: true,
port: 465
};

gulp.task('mail', function () {
return gulp.src('./mails/i-love-you.html')
.pipe(mail({
subject: 'Surprise!?',
to: [
'[email protected]'
],
from: 'Foo ',
smtp: smtpInfo
}));
});
```
