Node.js wrapper around Python's spf.check2 function which conforms to both RFC4408 and RFC7208

Table of Contents

Requirements

  1. Ensure that you have a Python version of >= 3.5 installed per pyspf requirements (note that Python v3 is required because of a bug with DNS recursive CNAME lookups on v2.7):

    python3 --version
  2. Install the packages pyspf and dnspython:

    pip3 install pyspf
    pip3 install dnspython

Install

npm:

npm install python-spfcheck2

yarn:

yarn add python-spfcheck2

Usage

const spfCheck2 = require('python-spfcheck2');
 
const ip = '69.55.226.139';
const address = 'terry@wayforward.net';
const host = 'mx1.wayforward.net';
 
// then/catch usage
spfCheck2(ip, address, host)
  .then([result, explanation] => console.log(result, explanation))
  .catch(console.error);
 
// async/await usage
(async () => {
  try {
    const [ result, explanation ] = await spfCheck2(ip, address, host);
    console.log(result, explanation);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
})();

Note that result is a String (which also corresponds to a particular explanation), see table below for the full list:

Result Explanation
pass sender SPF authorized
fail SPF fail - not authorized
neutral permanent error in processing
softfail domain owner discourages use of this host
permerror permanent error in processing
temperror temporary DNS error in processing
none
local No SPF result due to local policy
trusted No SPF check - trusted-forwarder.org
ambiguous No error, but results may vary

An error is thrown if the child process itself (spf.check2) errors.
