Nodemailer is a Node.js module for sending emails. Here's a quick overview:
- Transporter: Defines how emails will be sent (via Gmail, custom SMTP, etc.).
const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({ ... });
- Message Object: Specifies email details like sender, recipient, subject, and content (text/HTML).
const mailOptions = { from, to, subject, text, html };
Send Email: Use
transporter.sendMail(mailOptions)
to send the email.SMTP: Can be configured for custom or service-based email delivery.
OAuth2: Option for secure email authentication (e.g., Gmail OAuth).
Error Handling: Always handle errors when sending emails.
Attachments: Support for including files or images in emails.
Nodemailer is great for automating email notifications in your web applications.
