is it possible to send email with casperjs?

Question

I am having a hard time finding examples of how to send an email with casperjs. This is my attempt so far... - I successfully got an API key from Mailgun. - I found 2 npm modules such as 'mailgun', and 'mailgun-js' - I loaded them and verified mailgun is loaded globablly and locally.. When I run my casper file. $ casperjs casper-test.js I get the following error: 'undefined' is not a constructor (evaluating 'new mailgun')

var Mailgun = require('mailgun').Mailgun; var mg = new Mailgun('key-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxa078a515af'); sendText('[email protected]', ['[email protected]'], 'Testing, casper-test', {'X-Campaign-Id': 'something'}, function(err) { err && console.log(err) });

My questions are... Am I even going in the right direction? is casperjs capable of firing off one of these modules? If so please let me know how I can fix

CasperJS/PhantomJS is not node.js. If you need node.js, then run it. — Artjom B.

stackoverflow.com/a/24389819/4179009 This answer explains the confusion between CasperJS and node.js NPM modules. They are not the same. That mailgun module is to be used with node.js, not CasperJS — greg_diesel

Yes, You can do it with http api:

casper.setHttpAuth('api', 'YOUR-SECRET-API-KEY'); casper.thenOpen('https://api.mailgun.net/v3/YOUR-MG-DOMAIN/messages', { method: 'post', data: { 'from': 'mailgun@YOUR-MG-DOMAIN', 'to': 'target', 'subject': 'Hello.', 'text': 'message' } });
