⚡ Write a sendMessage() Function using Node

[christyjacob4]

💭 Introduction

Appwrite Functions allow you to extend and customize your Appwrite server functionality by executing your custom code 🤩 You can learn more in our official Appwrite Functions docs.

The backbone of Appwrite Functions is Open Runtimes, an environment for serverless cloud computing. Since all Open Runtime functions are valid Appwrite functions, we are looking for contributors to extend the Open Runtimes Examples repository.

Your task is to implement sendMessage() function using Node. Please make sure to look at existing function examples and use them as a template for your function. This will help you keep the proper structure as well as provide information on how to test the function.

⚡ Function Details

The function must send a message using a specific channel to a receiver. Make sure to introduce function variables as necessary regarding connection to 3rd party services. Supported channels must be Email, SMS, Discord, and Twitter.

Example function payload:

{"type":"SMS","receiver":"+123456789","message":"Programming is fun!"}

Successful function response:

{"success":true}

Error function response:

{"success":false,"message":"Receiver not in correct format."}

🎯 Requirements

• Experience with Appwrite.
• Experience with Node.
• Knowledge to implement sendMessage function.
• Experience with Docker.

✅ Task Summary

• Ask to be assigned to the issue.
• Implement function sendMessage() in Node/ folder.
• Manually execute the newly implemented function to ensure it works.
• Submit a pull request in open-runtimes/examples and include screenshots of successful execution.

If you have questions, need any help, or just want to hang out, make sure to join us on our Discord server.

Happy Appwriting!

Hey @christyjacob4
I have some experience with Node and used Appwrite too in my past projects.
After reading the issue details I have a clear idea of what and how things need to be implemented.
I would love it if you could assign me this issue so that I can start working on it ASAP

@stnguyen90 if it is not assigned to anyone then can you assign this to me

I have gone through above description and I am also have all skills listed in requirements.
I have proposed solution that for email message we can use nodemailer and for sms we can use twillio and for rest they already provided supported apis.
