var api = builder.AddProject<Projects.MailCatcher_DemoApi>("api")
.WithReference(mail);In the Program.cs file of the WebApi, configure the SmtpClient:
builder.Services.AddSingleton<SmtpClient>(sp =>
{
var smtpUri = new Uri(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("mailcatcher")!);
var smtpClient = new SmtpClient(smtpUri.Host, smtpUri.Port);
return smtpClient;
});
app.MapPost("/subscribe", async ([FromServices] SmtpClient smtpClient, string email) =>
{
using var message = new MailMessage("[email protected]", email)
{
Subject = "Welcome to our app!",
Body = "Thank you for subscribing!"
};
await smtpClient.SendMailAsync(message);
});
