Mailgun: Sending image using parse cloud code

I have a code defined as

Parse.Cloud.define("mailgunSendMail", function(request, response) {

               var Mailgun = require('mailgun');
               Mailgun.initialize('photoshare.com', 'APPKey');

               Mailgun.sendEmail({
                                 to: "[email protected]",
                                 from: "[email protected]",
                                 subject: "Hello from Cloud Code!",
                                 text: "Using Parse and Mailgun is great!",
                                 attachment:"ZXhhbXBsZSBmaWxl"
                                 }, {
                                 success: function(httpResponse) {
                                 console.log(httpResponse);
                                 response.success("Email sent!");
                                 },
                                 error: function(httpResponse) {
                                 console.error(httpResponse);
                                 response.error("Uh oh, something went wrong");
                                 }
                                 });
               });

Mail was sent successfully and recipient got the mail but the attachment is missing. How can i send attachment in the form of data?

Solution

  • According to parse, at this point there is no way to send attachments in an email. Check this link

    However, if you can include your image file in your HTML code like this if this serves your needs.

    html: '<html><body style="text-align:center;"><img border="0" src="http://files.parse.com/6ffa6b80-d0eb-401f-b663-22d4a16df004/bfed9ac4-058c-41fc-a0f1-fb6155572c12-ad77a082-453f-42f7-94ef-40c3f3e885e6.png" alt="Pulpit rock" width="300" height="150"></body></html>'
