A wrapper around Amazon SNS to send simple transactional SMS messages.
npm install simple-sms
The simplest way is to set three environment variables:
process.env.AwsAccessKeyId- your AWS access key created in IAM, with SNS privelegesprocess.env.AwsSecretAccessKey- your AWS secret keyprocess.env.AwsRegion- your AWS region
To send a message call the send() function, which returns a promise.
const sms = require("simple-sms");
sms.send({
message: "Hello World!",
phoneNumber: "+447xxxxxxxxx",
senderId: "WillJ"
}).then((result) => {
console.log("Sent!");
console.log(result);
}).catch((err) => {
console.log(err);
});
If you can't or don't want to use those env var names, you can pass the information to the init() function before calling send.
const sms = require("simple-sms");
sms.init({
accessKeyId: yourKey,
secretAccesskey: yourSecret,
awsRegion: "eu-west-1"
});
sms.send({
message: "Hello World!",
phoneNumber: "+447xxxxxxxxx",
senderId: "WillJ"
}).then((result) => {
console.log("Sent!");
console.log(result);
}).catch((err) => {
console.log(err);
});
