[feature] An easy to use mail validator

[Joe-Degs]

This feature introduces a way to seamlessly validate the mail about to be sent and it is also promised based which means it is unblocking

Using this is extremely simple, you just import the mail_validator.js file inside the utils folder, this file when imported returns an object with two things

• a validator function: the function that coordinates the mail object validation
• schema table: that contains the schema functions that do the actual validation of the mail objects

It is extremely easy to use and structured in a way you don't have to think about the implementation to use it.

The validator function takes two parameters, a mail object to validate and the route on which you are validating. We have two routes, so that will be either a sendmail or sendmailwithtemplate option.

validator([mailObject -> Object], [route -> 'sendmail' | 'sendmailwithtemplate'])

The validator is promised based, so if you call it either

• resolves a value object that contains all the mail objects that have undergone the validation
• or rejects with an error object containing the specific reason it failed

A simple way to use this will be

const { validate } = require('./utils/mail_validator');

const samplemail = {
      from: 'Noreply <[email protected]>',
      recipient: '[email protected]',
      cc: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'],
      bcc: [],
      subject: 'subject of the motherfucking email',
      text: 'Body of the email'
}

validate(samplemail, 'sendmail')
    .then(console.log).catch(console.log);
