Unverified.email helps testing if the applications send emails correctly.
This is the code that powers the api.
When working with emails in the applications I write, I often need a way to verify that what is being sent out includes all the data that I wanted the emails to contain and that it is in the right format.
Usually I would set up mailhog or mailtrap server. I hope that this could be useful to have a service that might help others too, although I understand that it might be too simple for now. Please open an issue with suggestions you have in mind on how to improve it. I will consider carefully if to implement them though :)
- Issue a GET request to https://api.unverified.email/create The response will contain a mailbox that for sending emails to
- Issue a GET request to https://api.unverified.email/receive/<mailbox_id> to receive all the emails that have been sent to that address
- Warning: the service is not yet finalised. However I am very certain it can be used by developers and in your pipelines and we can iron out the small kinks together if they appear. Just open an issue please, if something needs attention.
- You can create as many mailboxes as you want.
- The mailboxes and your emails will be stored for 5 minutes only, after which
They will be deleted. So do use the
/create
endpoint freely. - The
/receive
endpoint will wait for emails to be delivered for at least 15 seconds, so you should not need to hit the url repeatedly.
There is a ./do
bash script in the root folder that provides shortcuts
to most of the tasks. I guess the deploy
command won't
work for you since you don't have credentials to ssh to
unverified.email servers, but everything else should work fine.
- you will need the haskell tool stack, to build and test the project.
- you will need
hlint
, andshellcheck
installed to run the lint checks.
