Simple wrapper around imap and mailparser that fetches, parses, and returns the most recent email that has been received by a gmail account.
Simply require in last-gmail, pass in the account details (only user and password are required, all other are optional and are documented here), and call getLastEmail. The async function returns the results, and any errors are thrown.
const gmail = require('last-gmail');
const opts = {
user: '[email protected]',
password: 'password',
mailbox: 'INBOX' // Optional, default: [Gmail]/All Mail
};
try {
const email = await gmail.getLastEmail(opts);
console.log('to:', email.to);
console.log('from:', email.from);
email.text && console.log('text:', email.text);
email.html && console.log('html:', email.html);
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
}
