zmq-mailbox

ZMQ mailbox - subscribing to incoming mails

What?

This module starts a mailserver and pumps the mails into a ZMQ queue.

Why?

Once we subscribe to a mail address we trigger a action by email.

How?

Install via npm:

$ npm install zmq-mailbox -g

Start

To setup the queue on port 3000:

$ sudo zmq-mailbox 3000

Now you can subscribe with ZMQ on port 3000:

const zmq = require('zmq');
const sock = zmq.socket('sub');
 
sock.connect('tcp://127.0.0.1:'+process.argv[2]);
sock.subscribe('user@localhost');
 
sock.on('message', function(topic, message) {
    console.log('received a message related to:', topic.toString(), 'containing message:', message.toString);
});
