A node script for Secret Santa.

What is this ?

This simple node script will send a mail to your friends to tell them who they have to offer a present to this year for your Secret Santa.

Wrapping up the presents

In order to run the script, you need docker.

Writing santa's letter

If you want a custom message, open src/email.js with your favourite editor, and replace the mail subjet and template with whatever you want.

Open src/people.json, and follow the template to add people.

If a person A does not want to be matched with another person B, add B to the "not" list of A.

Make sure every "name" is unique.

Deliver the presents

In the directory, execute make, then make start, and insert your smtp address, your username and your password. You might have to temporarily enable signin from insecure source if you are using gmail.
