Gmail Checker

A simple library that checks if a Google Gmail account is already taken. It may be suitable for email check, or other stuff.

Installation

Download or clone this repo or install through npm:

npm install --save gmail-checker

Usage

var GmailChecker = require('gmail-checker');
 
console.log(GmailChecker);

Promise based

If the check is invoked without a callback object, a Promise is returned immediately.

You can use it like this:

GmailChecker.check('myDesiredUsername').then(function(result){
  //check executed
  //do stuff with the result data
  if(result.exists){
    console.log('Gmail username already taken...');
  }else{
    console.log('Gmail username is available!');
  }
}).catch(function(err){
  //do something with the error data
  console.error(err);
});

Callback based

If the check is invoked with a callback function, it'll be invoked after the check has been executed.

You can use it like this:

GmailChecker.check('myDesiredUsername', function(err, result){
 
  //first argument, if not null is the error
  if(err){
    console.error(err);
    return;
  }
  //check executed
  //do stuff with the result data
  if(result.exists){
    console.log('Gmail username already taken...');
  }else{
    console.log('Gmail username is available!');
  }
});
