SendGrid-Mock

SendGrid-Mock serves as a simple server mocking the sendgrid-apis for development purposes.

Functionalities

HTTP API

• Send mails POST /v3/mail/send

• Retrieve sent mails GET /api/mails

  • Filter capabilities are included and can be combined:
    • To: GET /api/mails?to=email@address.com
    • Subject:
      • GET /api/mails?subject=The subject (exact match)
      • GET /api/mails?subject=%subject% (contains)
    • Datetime: GET /api/mails?dateTimeSince=2020-12-06T10:00:00Z (ISO-8601 format)

• Delete sent mails DELETE /api/mails

  • Filter capabilities are included and can be combined:
    • To: DELETE /api/mails?to=email@address.com

UI

• Retrieve sent mails and display them
• Delete sent mails

Extras

• Basic authentication support: Add basic authentication credentials by specifying environment variable AUTHENTICATION to the following format: user1:passwordForUser1;user2:passwordForUser2

• By default, all emails older than 24 hours will be deleted. This can be configured using environment variable MAIL_HISTORY_DURATION which uses ISO-8601 Duration format such as 'PT24H'.

Dockerized

The SendGrid-Mock server and the UI are both contained in the same docker-image which you can pull from Docker Hub and start it via:

docker run -it -p 3000:3000 -e "API_KEY=sendgrid-api-key" ghashange/sendgrid-mock:1.8.0

Some prepared HTTP calls can be found here.

The UI can be accessed at http://localhost:3000.

SSL support

SendGrid-Mock also supports SSL using Let's Encrypt. To enable SSL, run it as follows:

docker run -it -p 3000:3000 -e "API_KEY=sendgrid-api-key" -e "CERT_DOMAINNAMES=[your-domain-name]" -e "CERT_EMAIL=[your-email-address]" ghashange/sendgrid-mock:1.8.0
