Node.js SendGrid email sample for Google App Engine

This sample demonstrates how to use SendGrid on Google App Engine Managed VMs.

For more information about SendGrid, see their documentation.

Read the [Sendgrid on App Engine Tutorial][5] for how to run and deploy this sample app.

Setup

Before you can run or deploy the sample, you will need to do the following:

  1. Create a SendGrid Account. As of September 2015, Google users start with 25,000 free emails per month.
  2. Configure your SendGrid settings in the environment variables section in app.yaml.

Running locally

Refer to the appengine/README.md file for instructions on running and deploying.

You can run the application locally and send emails from your local machine. You will need to set environment variables before starting your application:

export SENDGRID_API_KEY=<your-sendgrid-api-key>
export SENDGRID_SENDER=<your-sendgrid-sender-email-address>
npm start
