Usage

Inside of Golang ecosystem

You have to create your SMTP mock server using smtpmock.New() and smtpmock.ConfigurationAttr{} to start interaction with it.

Configuring

Manipulation with server

package main

import (
  "fmt"
  "net"
  "net/smtp"

  smtpmock "github.com/mocktools/go-smtp-mock/v2"
)

func main() {
  // You can pass empty smtpmock.ConfigurationAttr{}. It means that smtpmock will use default settings
  server := smtpmock.New(smtpmock.ConfigurationAttr{
    LogToStdout:       true,
    LogServerActivity: true,
  })

  // To start server use Start() method
  if err := server.Start(); err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }

  // Server's port will be assigned dynamically after server.Start()
  // for case when portNumber wasn't specified
  hostAddress, portNumber := "127.0.0.1", server.PortNumber()

  // Possible SMTP-client stuff for iteration with mock server
  address := fmt.Sprintf("%s:%d", hostAddress, portNumber)
  timeout := time.Duration(2) * time.Second

  connection, _ := net.DialTimeout("tcp", address, timeout)
  client, _ := smtp.NewClient(connection, hostAddress)
  client.Hello("example.com")
  client.Quit()
  client.Close()

  // Each result of SMTP session will be saved as message.
  // To get access for server messages copies use Messages() method
  server.Messages()

  // To get access for server messages copies and purge it on server after
  // use MessagesAndPurge() method
  server.MessagesAndPurge()

  // In case with flaky test environment you can wait for the specified number
  // of messages to arrive or until timeout is reached use WaitForMessages() method
  server.WaitForMessages(42, 1 * time.Millisecond)

  // In case with flaky test environment you can wait for the specified number
  // of messages to arrive or until timeout is reached and purge it on server
  // after use WaitForMessagesAndPurge() method
  server.WaitForMessagesAndPurge(42, 1 * time.Millisecond)

  // To stop the server use Stop() method. Please note, smtpmock uses graceful shutdown.
  // It means that smtpmock will end all sessions after client responses or by session
  // timeouts immediately.
  if err := server.Stop(); err != nil {
    fmt.Println(err)
  }
}

Code from example above will produce next output to stdout:

Inside of Ruby ecosystem

In Ruby ecosystem smtpmock is available as smtp_mock gem. It's flexible Ruby wrapper over smtpmock binary.

Example of usage

First, you should install smtp_mock gem and smtpmock as system dependency:

gem install smtp_mock
bundle exec smtp_mock -i ~

Now, you can create and interact with your smtpmock instance natively from Ruby ecosystem. It comes with default settings out of the box. Configure only what you need, for example:

require 'smtp_mock'

# List of all available server options:
# https://github.com/mocktools/ruby-smtp-mock#available-server-options
smtp_mock_server = SmtpMock.start_server(not_registered_emails: %w[user@olo.com user@molo.com])

# returns current smtp mock server port
smtp_mock_server.port # => 55640

# interface for force shutdown current smtp mock server
smtp_mock_server.stop! # => true

Inside of any ecosystem

You can use smtpmock as binary. Just download the pre-compiled binary from the releases page and copy them to the desired location. For start server run command with needed arguments. You can use our bash script for automation this process like in the example below:

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mocktools/go-smtp-mock/master/script/download.sh | bash
./smtpmock -port=2525 -log
