Mailgun.js
A javascript sdk for Mailgun built with webpack, babel & es6. This can be used in node or in the browser*.
NOTE: If used in the browser, a proxy is required to communicate with the Mailgun api due to cors limitations. Also, do not publish your private api key in frontend code.

Mailgun API Documentation:
Install
Install mailgun.js with:
npm install mailgun.js
Setup Client
Next, require the module and instantiate a mailgun client by calling new Mailgun(formData)
and then using mailgun.client
setup the client with basic auth credentials (username: 'api', key: 'key-yourkeyhere')
.
NOTE: starting from version 3.0 you need to pass FormData (we need this to keep library universal). For node.js you can use form-data
library.
IMPORTANT: if you are using EU infrastructure, you need to also pass url: 'https://api.eu.mailgun.net'
together with auth credentials as stated in Mailgun docs
Imports
Once the package is installed, you can import the library using import
or require
approach:
const formData = require('form-data');
const Mailgun = require('mailgun.js');
const mailgun = new Mailgun(formData);
const mg = mailgun.client({username: 'api', key: process.env.MAILGUN_API_KEY || 'key-yourkeyhere'});
import FormData from 'form-data';
import Mailgun from 'mailgun.js';
const mailgun = new Mailgun(FormData);
const mg = mailgun.client({username: 'api', key: process.env.MAILGUN_API_KEY || 'key-yourkeyhere'});
Using Subaccounts
Primary accounts can make API calls on behalf of their subaccounts. API documentation
import FormData from 'form-data';
import Mailgun from 'mailgun.js';
const mailgun = new Mailgun(FormData);
const mg = mailgun.client({username: 'api', key: process.env.MAILGUN_API_KEY || 'key-yourkeyhere'});
mg.setSubaccount('subaccount-id');
mg.resetSubaccount();
Proxy configuration
By leveraging client configuration options, users can effortlessly establish proxy connections that align with their network requirements.
Ex:
import FormData from 'form-data';
import Mailgun from 'mailgun.js';
const mailgun = new Mailgun(FormData);
const mg = mailgun.client({
username: 'api',
key: process.env.MAILGUN_API_KEY || 'key-yourkeyhere',
proxy: {
protocol: 'https'
host: '127.0.0.1',
port: 9000,
auth: {
username: 'user_name',
password: 'user_password'
}
},
});
Types imports
Starting from version 9.0.0. Types can be includes as named import:
import Mailgun, { MailgunClientOptions, MessagesSendResult } from 'mailgun.js';
Interfaces and Enums imports
Starting from version 9.0.0. Interfaces and Enums can be imported in the next way:
import Mailgun, { Interfaces, Enums } from 'mailgun.js';
...
const mailgunClient: Interfaces.IMailgunClient = mailgun.client(clientOptions);
const yes = Enums.YesNo.YES;
...
Generated docs
The list of all available Types, Interfaces and Enums is auto-generated and located in the docs folder.
Methods
The following service methods are available to instantiated clients. The examples assume you have already created a mailgun client as mg
with valid credentials.
Method naming conventions:

- expected response for client is a single objectlist
or list{{Items}}
- expected response for client is a list of objectscreate
or create{{Item}}
- expected response for client is a single objectupdate
or update{{Item}}
- expected response is an object with a status messagedestroy

const filepath = path.resolve(__dirname, '../test.pdf');
let messageParams = {
from: "Excited User <mailgun@sandbox-123.mailgun.org>",
to: ["test@example.com"],
subject: "Test subject",
text: "Hello here is a file in the attachment"
}
fsPromises.readFile(filepath)
.then(data => {
const file = {
filename: 'test-rename.pdf',
data
}
messageParams.attachment = file;
return mg.messages.create('sandbox-123.mailgun.org', messageParams);
})
.then(response => {
console.log(response);
})
-

to: ["test@example.com"],
subject: "Test subject",
text: "Test message"
}

data
}
messageParams.inline = file;
return mg.messages.create('sandbox-123.mailgun.org', messageParams);
})
.then(response => console.log(response))
-
Browser example of send file
Before sending the file you need to somehow get the Blob of the file.
Usually can get it from the onChange event of input tag with type file.
const handleFileSelected = async (event) => {
const files = Array.from(event.target.files)
const fileBuffer = await files[0];
}
<input type="file" onChange={handleFileSelected} name="file-uploader"/>
Then you can use the same approach as shown above for node.js apps.
const file = {
filename: 'test.pdf',
data: fileBuffer
};
let messageParams = {
from: "Excited User <mailgun@sandbox-123.mailgun.org>",
to: ["test@example.com"],
subject: "Test subject",
text: "Hello here is a file in the attachment",
attachment: file
};
const res = await mg.messages.create(DOMAIN, messageParams);
Promise returns:
{
id: '<20151025002517.117282.79817@sandbox-123.mailgun.org>',
message: 'Queued. Thank you.'
}
Templates
Mailgun’s templates uses a fork of the very popular template engine handlebars.
To provide values for a substitution you need to use 'h:X-Mailgun-Variables' property in the message description.
Make sure that this property is a JSON string like:
JSON.stringify({
"title": "A title",
"body": "The body"
})
You can find few examples of how to use templates below.
-
Providing values for title and slug variables to render in template
...
const {
title,
slug,
} = someDataSource;
const mailgunData = {
from: 'mailer@example.com>',
to: 'recipient@example.com',
subject: `Email ${title}`,
template: 'name-of-the-template-you-made-in-mailgun-web-portal',
'h:X-Mailgun-Variables': JSON.stringify({
title,
slug,
}),
'h:Reply-To': 'reply-to@example.com',
};
try {
const response = await mailgun.messages.create(DOMAIN_NAME, mailgunData);
...
-
Providing an array of objects to render them in the template
...
const mailgunData = {
from: 'mailer@example.com>',
to: 'recipient@example.com',
subject: `Email ${title}`,
template: 'name-of-the-another-template-you-made-in-mailgun-web-portal',
'h:X-Mailgun-Variables': JSON.stringify({
"arrayItems": [
{
"question": "test_question",
"answer": "test_answer"
},
{
"question": "test_question",
"answer": "test_answer"
}
]})
};
try {
const response = await mailgun.messages.create(DOMAIN_NAME, mailgunData);
...
Recipient Variables
Docs
Recipient Variables are custom variables that you define, which you can then reference in the message body. They give you the ability to send a custom message to each recipient while still using a single API Call.
...
const mailgunData = {
from: 'Example.com Mailer <mailer@mailer.example.com>',
to: ['me@example.com', 'you@example.com'],
subject: 'Recipient - %recipient.title%',
html: 'Here\'s %recipient.title% and <a href="%recipient.link%">link</a>',
'recipient-variables': JSON.stringify({
'me@example.com': {
title: 'Me',
link: 'href-var',
},
'you@example.com': {
title: 'You',
link: 'slug-recipient-var-c',
},
}),
};
try {
const response = await mailgun.messages.create(DOMAIN_NAME, mailgunData);
...

Navigation thru lists
Most of the methods that return items in a list support pagination.
There are two ways to receive part of the list:
- Provide properties 'limit' and 'page' in the query.
This way uses more frequently in the SDK and works for the next methods:
-
mg.domains.domainTags.list()
-
mg.domains.domainTemplates.list()
-
mg.domains.domainTemplates.listVersions()
-
mg.events.get()
-
mg.lists.list()
-
mg.lists.members.listMembers()
-
mg.validate.list()
-
mg.suppressions.list()
The general idea is that after you made the first call with a limit property in the query you will receive a response with a property called pages in it. This property implements the next interface:
{
previous: {
id: string;
page: string;
iteratorPosition: string | undefined;
url: string
};
first: {
id: string;
page: string;
iteratorPosition: string | undefined;
url: string
};
last: {
id: string;
page: string;
iteratorPosition: string | undefined;
url: string
};
next: {
id: string;
page: string;
iteratorPosition: string | undefined;
url: string
};
}
To receive the next page you need to add the page property to the query argument. This property should contain a string value from 'page' property in response.pages.(previous/first/last/next).
Example:
const listMembers = await mg.lists.members.listMembers('your_mailing_list', { limit: 2 });
const listMembers = await mg.lists.members.listMembers(
'your_mailing_list',
{
limit: 2,
page: '?page=next&address=test-1%40example.com&limit=2'
}
);
- The second option of navigation is to provide properties 'limit' and 'skip' in the query. This way uses only in a few places for now:
- mg.domains.list()
- mg.domains.domainCredentials.list()
- mg.routes.list()
- mg.webhooks.list()
The main idea here is quite simple you just need to provide how many records from the start of a list you want to skip and how many to receive. You can do it using the query parameter in each method.
Example:
const listDomainCredentials = await client.domains.domainCredentials.list(
'your_domain_name',
{
skip: 10,
limit: 1
}
);
Browser Demo
For this demo to work, you'll need to install and run http-proxy
locally. Install it with:
npm install -g http-proxy
Then run the following command from the mailgun-js directory:
http-server -p 4001 --proxy="https://api.mailgun.net"
Demo should be up and running at http://0.0.0.0:4001/examples/
Development
Requirements
Install node dependencies with:
npm install
Build
Build for dev purposes(without minimizing)
npm run build
Build for release purposes(include minimizing)
npm run build:release
Merging changes
Before PR merge check that commits info will be correctly added to the CHANGELOG.md file:
'npm run release -- --dry-run'
CI process isn't working currently, so please manually run npm run test
Tests
npm run tests
Watch tests with
npm run watch-tests
To test new functionality locally using npm link
please use npm script npm run link
.
This is needed for correct exporting d.ts files.
Release Process
Releases occur after feature branches have been tested and merged into master.
First, checkout master and pull the latest commits.
git checkout master
git pull
Next, run npm run release
.
After that, cd ./dist
and then run npm login
and npm publish
to publish changes on npm.
