I want to use handle bars template in my nest js application:
<!--confirmation.hbs-->
<p>Hello template</p>This file is located in src/mail/templates/confirmation.hbs. Also i try to send this template as email:
//mail service
@Injectable()
export class EmailService {
constructor(private readonly mailerService: MailerService) {}
public example(): void {
this.mailerService
.sendMail({
to: 'mail', // list of receivers
from: 'test@nestjs.com', // sender address
subject: 'Testing Nest MailerModule ✔', // Subject line
template: './confirmation',
})
.then((r) => {
console.log(r, 'email is sent');
})
.catch((e) => {
console.log(e, 'error sending email');
});
}
}My app.module.ts looks:
@Module({
imports: [
MailerModule.forRoot({
transport: {
service: 'Gmail',
auth: {
user: '---secret',
pass: '---secret',
},
},
defaults: {
from: '"No Reply" <no-reply@localhost>',
},
template: {
dir: __dirname + '/templates',
adapter: new HandlebarsAdapter(),
options: {
strict: true,
},
},
}),
TypeOrmModule.forRoot({
type: 'postgres',
host: 'localhost',
port: 5433,
username: '-',
password: '-',
database: '-',
entities: [RegisterEntity],
synchronize: true,
}),
AuthenticationModule,
],
controllers: [AppController, AuthenticationController],
providers: [AppService, AuthenticationService],
})This is my main.ts
async function bootstrap() {
const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule);
app.setGlobalPrefix(CONSTANTS.GLOBAL_PREFIX);
await app.listen(3000);
}
bootstrap();nest-cli.hbs
{
"collection": "@nestjs/schematics",
"sourceRoot": "src",
"compilerOptions": {
"assets": [
"mail/templates/**/*.hbs"
],
"watchAssets": true
}
}The email is sent if don't send a template, so the code is working. Trying to send an email template like is my code above i get this error: TypeError: Cannot destructure property 'templateName' of 'precompile(...)' as it is undefined.
Question: Why i get this issue and how to get rid of it?
