Novu API & Admin panel (alpha)

We are excited to launch the complete Novu API and admin panel. Want to give it a test before the official release? here is how:

npx novu init

After setting up your account using the cloud or docker version you can trigger the API using the @novu/node package.

npm install @novu/node
import { Novu } from '@novu/node';

const novu = new Novu(process.env.NOVU_API_KEY);

await novu.trigger('<TRIGGER_NAME>',
  {
    to: {
      subscriberId: '<UUNIQUE_IDENTIFIER>',
      email: 'john@doemail.com',
      firstName: 'John',
      lastName: 'Doe',
    },
    payload: {
      name: "Hello World",
      organization: {
        logo: 'https://happycorp.com/logo.png',
      },
    },
  }
);

๐Ÿ“ฆ Stateless mode

For simpler use cases, you can use the @novu/stateless library. This will require you to manage the templates content and providers registration.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Install

npm install @novu/stateless
yarn add @novu/stateless

๐Ÿ”จ Usage

import { NovuStateless, ChannelTypeEnum } from '@novu/stateless';
import { SendgridEmailProvider } from '@novu/sendgrid';

const novu = new NovuStateless();

await novu.registerProvider(
  new SendgridEmailProvider({
    apiKey: process.env.SENDGRID_API_KEY,
    from: 'sender@mail.com'
  })
);

const passwordResetTemplate = await novu.registerTemplate({
  id: 'password-reset',
  messages: [
    {
      subject: 'Your password reset request',
      channel: ChannelTypeEnum.EMAIL,
      template: `
          Hi {{firstName}}!
          
          To reset your password click <a href="{{resetLink}}">here.</a>
          
          {{#if organization}}
            <img src="{{organization.logo}}" />
          {{/if}}
      `
    },
  ]
});

await novu.trigger('<REPLACE_WITH_EVENT_NAME>', {
  $user_id: "<USER IDENTIFIER>",
  $email: "test@email.com",
  firstName: "John",
  lastName: "Doe",
  organization: {
    logo: 'https://evilcorp.com/logo.png'
  }
});
