This is an Encore package for asynchronous sending emails via SendGrid using Pub/Sub and the ability to flexibly configure concurrency and retry policies.
- Copy over the
sendgridpackage directory to your Encore application. - Sync your project dependencies by running
go mod tidy.
You will need an API key from SendGrid to use this package. You can get one by signing up for a free account at https://sendgrid.com/.
Once you have the API key, set it as an Encore secret using the name SendGridAPIKey:
# It is good practice to separate API keys for development and production environments
$ encore secret set --dev SendGridAPIKey
Enter secret value: *****
Successfully updated development secret SendGridAPIKey.
# To set the API key for production environment
$ encore secret set --prod SendGridAPIKey
Enter secret value: *****
Successfully updated development secret SendGridAPIKey.Please note that emails will only be sent in the production environment to avoid spending your email sending limits.
The sendgrid package contains the following endpoints:
sendgrid.Send- Send publishes an email to PubSub for further asynchronous sending using the SendGrid API.
