npm run dev

⛽️ Usage

Once you have the function deployed, take a note of the immutable now.sh url.

You can use this URL to make requests, providing you send along X-MOLTIN-SECRET-KEY in the request header that is the same you defined in .env. You may wish to invoke this function server side so you don't expose your MOLTIN_SECRET_KEY but you could remove this feature entirely.

Send a request to http://localhost:3000 that includes the following payload

{
  "from": {
    "name": "...",
    "company": "...",
    "street1": "...",
    "city": "...",
    "state": "...",
    "zip": "...",
    "country": "...",
    "phone": "...",
    "email": "..."
  },
  "to": {
    "name": "...",
    "company": "...",
    "street1": "...",
    "city": "...",
    "state": "...",
    "zip": "...",
    "country": "...",
    "phone": "...",
    "email": "..."
  },
  "parcels": [
