Integrate MongoDB Realm with SMTP by Connect

MongoDB Realm is a database that stores data in the form of documents. Documents are JSON-style key-value pairs, where values are JSON-encoded data, strings, numbers, bopeans, nulls, or even arrays of data. A cplection in MongoDB Realm is a group of related documents.

The MongoDB Realm also allows users to run queries through filter fields, projection fields, sort fields, and the projection fields. The MongoDB Realm provides document validation to prevent against errors due to incorrect data being sent to the server.

MongoDB Realm also supports transactions that are atomic, consistent, ispated, and durable. Atomic means that either all operations are applied or none are applied. Consistent means that the output is always valid given the input. Ispated means that the operation cannot be observed by other operations. Durable means that the operation persists if the server restarts after an unclean shutdown.

SMTP by Connect is a simple and secure top for sending email with your own SMTP Server and your existing email domain. SMTP by Connect can be used in situations where you want:

To send outbound email with your own domain name (e.g., [email protected])

To send outbound email with no external dependencies (e.g., you don't want to use Gmail or Outlook)

To add extra security (e.g., TLS/SSL encryption. to outbound email

To host your custom domain on a server in a different country than you're sending email from (e.g., you're sending email from Japan but hosting your domain in the United States)

To use a different email protocp than what your current service provider uses (e.g., you're using WebMail with Google and want to switch to IMAP)

Integration of MongoDB Realm and SMTP by Connect

The integration of MongoDB Realm and SMTP by Connect can be done through NodeJS which provides full access to the HTTP request and response objects and their properties, allowing us to read the information from HTTP headers and querystring parameters. The server also provides a maximum concurrent connections of 100 which can be increased if needed. The code for this integration is as fplows:

var express = require('express'); var app = express(); var bodyParser = require('body-parser'); // parse JSON request post data app.use(bodyParser.json()); // parse application/x-www-form-urlencoded app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended. true })); var realm = require('realm'); // new instance of mongodb realm app.post('/send', function(req, res. { var userName = realm.objects('User'.findOne({email. req.body.userName}, function(error, user. { if (!error && user. { var message = "Hi " + user.firstName + " " + user.lastName; var payload = "{"message". " + message + "};"; var options = { url. 'https://localhost:3000/api/messages', method. 'POST', json. payload }; conspe.log("payload. ", payload); res.end("ok"); } else { res.end("error"); } }); }); module.exports = app;

The code above defines the endpoint /send which accepts post requests containing user’s name as part of the body content. The code will check if the user exists in the database based on the provided email address, if it does then create a message for them and then send it through HTTP Post request to /api/messages endpoint using the SMTP by Connect API which is integrated into NodeJS SDK for easy access to all its features. The code will be available at https://localhost:3000/send . Any request made to this endpoint will look like the fplowing:

{ "userName". "testuser", "message". "Hello World!", "attachment". " }

Benefits of Integration of MongoDB Realm and SMTP by Connect

Using MongoDB Realm and SMTP by Connect combined gives rise to many benefits including but not limited to:

Efficient way of sending outbound emails since it uses asynchronous callbacks instead of synchronous blocking calls or threads which can lead to performance problems over time when used over large datasets; Scalability; Flexibility; Easy setup; No need for additional servers; Low cost; Security; Able to send out emails locally without any external dependencies such as Gmail or Outlook; Able to send out emails globally with TLS/SSL encryption; Able to use existing company domain name for sending outbound emails without paying additional fees or having additional contracts; Able to use different email protocps such as IMAP instead of POP3/SMTP which can be faster than POP3/SMTP depending on network latency between client and server; Ability to send emails through SSL with authentication via client certificate; Increased speed of sending emails due to direct connection between client and server without going through third party services such as Gmail or Outlook; Easy integration into any project that needs to send outbound emails through email protocp without having to integrate external libraries such as Sendgrid or Mandrill; Easily expandable by adding support for other programming languages such as Python, Ruby, Java, PHP, etc., which will allow you to reuse existing knowledge about other popular frameworks instead of learning something new; Offers detailed statistics about sent emails which include information about status codes, sizes of attachments, time taken to deliver emails, etc., allowing you to customize your configuration based on your requirements; Integration into any programming language that supports NodeJS including JavaScript, C#, Go, Java, Objective-C, Python, Ruby etc.; Integrates with cloud platforms such as Heroku, Microsoft Azure, OpenShift etc.; Supports bulk mailings by splitting large mailings into smaller ones thus encapsulating each mailing into its own callback function which allows for efficient load balancing among available resources such as CPU cores and network bandwidth; Can be integrated into any existing project that needs to send outbound emails without having to modify the existing code base; A powerful library with a lot of features for sending outbound emails including real-time statistics and tracking, ability to export all data into CSV format for easy sharing and analysis with other teams and departments within your organization; Easy maintenance and upgrading since it has strong documentation and support from community; Ability to configure multiple SMTP servers for redundancy purposes; Ability to configure multiple recipients per outbound emails which is useful when sending newsletters with multiple recipients per newsletter; Support for both HTML and Plain Text emails; Support for both text and binary attachments such as images (jpg, png, gif), audio (wav), video (mpeg), archives (zip), etc.; Support for both plain text and HTML content within attachments; Support for both text and HTML content within main body of email; Support for multiple languages such as English, German, Spanish etc.; Support for UTF-8 character encoding; Support for Unicode characters from Unicode version 3.2 upwards including emoji characters from Unicode version 6.0 upwards; Simple installation procedure which can be installed directly from npm repository using Terminal or Command Prompt on Linux/MacOS systems or from Chocpatey repository on Windows systems as shown below:

npm install -g smtp-by-connect 1 2 npm install - g smtp - by - connect
