Advanced tools
This is the official NodeJS wrapper for the Paubox Transactional Email API. It is currently in alpha development.
The Paubox Transactional Email API allows your application to send secure, HIPAA-compliant email via Paubox and track deliveries and opens. The API wrapper allows you to construct and send messages.
Using npm:
$ npm install --save paubox-node
You will need to have a Paubox account. You can sign up here.
Once you have an account, follow the instructions on the Rest API dashboard to verify domain ownership and generate API credentials.
Include your API credentials in your environment file.
$ echo "API_KEY='YOUR_API_KEY'" > .env
$ echo "API_USERNAME='YOUR_ENDPOINT_NAME'" >> .env
$ echo ".env" >> .gitignore
Or pass them as parameters when creating emailService
const pbMail = require('paubox-node');
const pauboxConfig = {
apiUsername: 'your-api-username',
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
};
const service = pbMail.emailService(pauboxConfig);
To send email, prepare a Message object and call the sendMessage method of emailService.
"use strict";
require('dotenv').config();
const pbMail = require('paubox-node');
const service = pbMail.emailService();
var options = {
from: 'sender@domain.com',
to: ['recipient@example.com'],
subject: 'Testing!',
text_content: 'Hello World!',
html_content: '<html><head></head><body><h1>Hello World!</h1></body></html>',
}
var message = pbMail.message(options)
service.sendMessage(message)
.then(response => {
console.log("Send Message method Response: " + JSON.stringify(response));
}).catch(error => {
console.log("Error in Send Message method: " + JSON.stringify(error));
});
If you want to send non-PHI mail that does not need to be HIPAA-compliant, you can allow the message delivery to take place even if a TLS connection is unavailable.
This means the message will not be converted into a secure portal message when a nonTLS connection is encountered. To do this, include allowNonTLS: true in the options, as shown below:
"use strict";
require('dotenv').config();
const pbMail = require('paubox-node');
const service = pbMail.emailService();
var options = {
allowNonTLS: true,
from: 'sender@domain.com',
to: ['recipient@example.com'],
subject: 'Testing!',
text_content: 'Hello World!',
html_content: '<html><head></head><body><h1>Hello World!</h1></body></html>',
}
var message = pbMail.message(options)
"use strict";
require('dotenv').config();
const pbMail = require('paubox-node');
const service = pbMail.emailService();
var attachmentContent = Buffer.from('Hello! This is the attachment content!').toString('base64')
var options = {
from: 'sender@domain.com',
reply_to: 'reply_to@domain.com',
to: ['recipient@example.com'],
bcc: ['recipient2@example.com'],
subject: 'Testing!',
text_content: 'Hello World!',
html_content: '<html><head></head><body><h1>Hello World!</h1></body></html>',
attachments: [{
fileName: "HelloWorld.txt",
contentType: "text/plain",
content: attachmentContent
}]
}
var message = pbMail.message(options)
The SOURCE_TRACKING_ID of a message is returned in the response of the sendMessage method. To check the status for any email, use its source tracking id and call the getEmailDisposition method of emailService:
"use strict";
require('dotenv').config();
const pbMail = require('paubox-node');
const service = pbMail.emailService();
service.getEmailDisposition("SOURCE_TRACKING_ID")
.then(function (response) {
console.log("Get Email Disposition method Response: " + JSON.stringify(response));
});
