srnjak-dev-playground-mail Docker Image

This Docker image is an extension of the srnjak-dev-playground image, providing additional support for sending emails from the bash console using Postfix and Mailutils.

Usage

Building the Image

docker build -t srnjak-dev-playground-mail .

Running a Container

To run the container, you can use either the --env-file option or the -e flag to specify environment variables directly. Below are examples for both methods:

Using --env-file:

docker run --env-file env.list -it srnjak-dev-playground-mail

Ensure that you have an env.list file containing the necessary environment variables for email configuration, including RELAY_HOST, USERNAME, and PASSWORD. Here is an example env.list file:

RELAY_HOST="[mail.example.com]:465"
USERNAME="your_username"
PASSWORD="your_password"

Using -e:

docker run -e RELAY_HOST="[mail.example.com]:465" -e USERNAME="your_username" -e PASSWORD="your_password" -it srnjak-dev-playground-mail

Replace the values in quotes with your specific configuration details.

Sending a Test Email

Once the container is running, you can send a test email using the following command:

echo "Test message" | mail -s "Test" -a "From: [email protected]" [email protected]

Replace [email protected] with the desired recipient's email address, and update the "From: [email protected]" to specify the desired sender's email address.

Dependencies

  • Based on the srnjak-dev-playground image
  • Postfix
  • Mailutils
