A mailing app written in go.

Go-Mailer

Go-Mailer is a simple go microservice that can be used to send emails to multiple users using Gmail account (potentially any email address as it creates a smtp server).

Project setup

This project requires three environment variables namely:

• MAILID : The email id that you want to send from
• PASSWORD : The password of the above email address
• FROM : Name of the sender (This makes the email prettier)

once this is done you can simply run go run main.go

Endpoints

• GET /
• POST /mail

This microservice has only two endpoints (actually only one, but the other one s just to test if the app is working).

GET - /

An endpoint to test if the app is running and potentially wake it up if its running on a serverless.

POST /mail

An endpoint to actually send mail.

Parameters (Remember all the data passed should be in formdata and is required):

• content (File) : The actual content of the email (either an html or a txt file)
• to ([]string) : The list of addresses to which the email is to be sent to (A list of strings).
• subject(string) : The subject of the email (string).
