Mail Service (Resend) Overview This guide explains how to send templated emails in a Vue/Nuxt application using VueMail for templating and Resend for delivery. Components 1. Email Template < script setup lang = "ts" > import { Text, Tailwind } from "@vue-email/components" ; import BaseLayout from "@/emails/layouts/BaseLayout.vue" ; defineProps ({ recipient: String, senderName: String, // Other props needed for your email }); < template > < BaseLayout title = "Email Subject" :recipient = "recipient" previewText = "Email preview text" > < Tailwind > < Text class = "text-base text-stone-600" > Hello {{ recipient }}, this is a message from {{ senderName }}. 2. API Route // server/api/email/sendExample.ts import exampleTemplate from "~/emails/templates/ExampleEmail.vue" ; import { render } from "@vue-email/render" ; import { Resend } from "resend" ; const resend = new Resend (process.env. RESEND_API_KEY ); export default defineEventHandler ( async ( event ) => { const body = await readBody (event); // Render email HTML using template and data const emailHtml = await render (exampleTemplate, { recipient: body.data.recipientName, senderName: body.data.senderName, // Pass other required props }, { pretty: true , }); // Send email using Resend const response = await resend.emails. send ({ from: "Your App " , to: [body.data.recipientEmail], subject: "Your Email Subject" , html: emailHtml, }); // Handle errors if (response.error) { throw createError ({ statusCode: 500 , statusMessage: response.error.message, }); } // Return success response return { sent: response.data?.id, }; }); 3. Front-end Implementation < template > < UButton :loading = "loading" @click = "sendEmail" > Send Email < script setup lang = "ts" > const loading = ref ( false ); const data = ref ({ recipientName: "John Doe" , recipientEmail: "recipient@example.com" , senderName: "Your App" , // Other data needed for the email }); const sendEmail = async () => { loading.value = true ; try { const response = await $fetch ( "/api/email/sendExample" , { method: "POST" , body: { data: data.value, }, }); console. log ( "Email sent:" , response.sent); } catch (error) { console. error ( "Error sending email:" , error); } finally { loading.value = false ; } }; Implementation Steps Install dependencies : npm install @vue-email/render resend Set up environment variables : Add your Resend API key in .env file: RESEND_API_KEY=##_########## Create email templates : Develop reusable Vue components for your email templates Create API endpoints : Build server endpoints to handle email rendering and sending Implement UI components : Add buttons or other UI elements to trigger email sending from the front-end Best Practices Separate email content from delivery logic Use composition for reusable email components Handle loading states and errors properly Keep sensitive information in environment variables Validate input data before sending html .dark .shiki span {color: var(--shiki-dark);background: var(--shiki-dark-bg);font-style: var(--shiki-dark-font-style);font-weight: var(--shiki-dark-font-weight);text-decoration: var(--shiki-dark-text-decoration);}html.dark .shiki span {color: var(--shiki-dark);background: var(--shiki-dark-bg);font-style: var(--shiki-dark-font-style);font-weight: var(--shiki-dark-font-weight);text-decoration: var(--shiki-dark-text-decoration);}html .default .shiki span {color: var(--shiki-default);background: var(--shiki-default-bg);font-style: var(--shiki-default-font-style);font-weight: var(--shiki-default-font-weight);text-decoration: var(--shiki-default-text-decoration);}html .shiki span {color: var(--shiki-default);background: var(--shiki-default-bg);font-style: var(--shiki-default-font-style);font-weight: var(--shiki-default-font-weight);text-decoration: var(--shiki-default-text-decoration);}
