It is possible to send an html string via mail with nodemailer and that your mail client or webmail service renders it not as a string but as an html?

There is an example on this question that I answered a while back: stackoverflow.com/questions/21654051/…Ryan– Ryan2015-03-11 19:41:49 +00:00Commented Mar 11, 2015 at 19:41

Here is some code I have used in the past...
email.mustache
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-US">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
</head>
<body>
hello {{{key}}}
</body>
</html>
email.js
var async = require("async"),
nodemailer = require("nodemailer"),
url = require("url"),
_ = require("underscore");
module.exports = function (uri) {
var api = Object.create(null),
requiredEmailAttributes = [ "to", "from", "subject", "html" ],
transport,
options;
function parseEmailURI(uri) {
var options = null,
urlParsed,
authParts;
urlParsed = url.parse(uri);
if(urlParsed.protocol === "smtp:") {
options = {};
options.host = urlParsed.hostname;
if(urlParsed.port) {
options.port = urlParsed.port;
}
if(urlParsed.auth) {
authParts = urlParsed.auth.split(":");
if(authParts.length === 2) {
options.auth = { user: authParts[0], pass: authParts[1] };
} else {
options = null;
}
}
}
return options;
}
if(!uri) {
options = {};
} else {
options = parseEmailURI(uri);
}
if(!options) {
return null;
}
transport = nodemailer.createTransport("SMTP",options);
function requireAttributes(message, callback) {
async.eachSeries(requiredEmailAttributes, function (name, next) {
if ((message[name] === undefined) ||
(message[name] === null)) {
next(new Error("The " + name + " attribute is required "+
"to be set and non-null"));
return;
}
next();
}, callback);
}
/*
message format {to,from,subject,html}
*/
api.sendMail = function(message,callback) {
async.waterfall(
[
requireAttributes.bind(undefined, message),
function (next) {
transport.sendMail( _.clone(message), next);
}
],
callback
);
};
api.close = function(callback) {
transport.close(callback);
};
return api;
};
app.js
var email = require("./email"),
fs = require("fs"),
Hogan = require("hogan.js"),
var emailTemplate = "./email.mustache",
mailer;
function sendEmail(to, callback) {
async.waterfall(
[
function (next) {
emailTemplate = result;
fs.readFile(emailTemplate, "utf8", next);
},
function (templateData, next) {
var template,
body;
template = Hogan.compile(templateData);
body = template.render({key: "value"});
mailer = email(config.emailURI());
mailer.sendMail({
to: to,
from: "[email protected]",
subject: "My Subject",
html: body
}, next);
},
function(info,next) {
mailer.close(next);
}
], callback);
}
sendEmail("[email protected]", function() {
console.log("email sent");
});
