# Email Sender Output Adapter Sample

## About This Sample

This sample uses the TIBCO StreamBase® Email Sender output adapter to send email messages.

## Importing This Sample into StreamBase Studio

In StreamBase Studio, import this sample with the following steps:

- From the top-level menu, click File → Load StreamBase Sample.

- Enter `email` to narrow the list of options.

- Select Email sending output adapter from the StreamBase Standard Adapters category.

- Click OK.

StreamBase Studio creates a single project containing the sample files.

## Running This Sample in StreamBase Studio

The sample application must be configured with a valid SMTP server host name or IP address and, for the SimpleInputEmailSender adapter, a valid FromValue value and least one recipient: To, Cc, or Bcc.

1. In the Project Explorer view, open the sample you just loaded.

   If you see red marks on a project folder, wait a moment for the project to load its features.

   If the red marks do not resolve themselves after a minute, select the project, right-click, and select Maven → Update Project from the context menu.

2. Open the `src/main/eventflow/`packageName`` folder.

3. Open the `emailsender.sbapp` file, right-click on the FullInputEmailSender adapter icon, and select Open in the Properties View.

4. In the SmtpServer property, enter a valid SMTP server host name or IP address.

5. Right-click on the SimpleInputEmailSender adapter icon and select Open in Properties View.

6. In the SmtpServer property, enter a valid SMTP server host name or IP address.

7. In the FromValue and To properties, enter valid from and to email addresses, respectively.

8. Make sure the `emailsender.sbapp` application is the currently active tab in the EventFlow Editor.

9. Click the Run button. This opens the SB Test/Debug perspective and starts the module.

10. In the Manual Input view, select the SimpleInput stream.

11. Enter subject and body values and click Send Data.

12. Use an email client to retrieve the message sent to the recipient entered in the to field of the SimpleInputEmailSender adapter.

13. Repeat the last three steps for the FullInputEmailSender adapter. Note that with this adapter, the full set of email headers are passed to the adapter through tuples in the FullInput stream. Thus, there are many more fields in the Manual Input view. At a minimum, you must provide a valid from value along with at least one recipient: to, cc, or bcc.

14. When done, press F9 or click the Terminate EventFlow Fragment button.

## Sample Location

When you load the sample into StreamBase Studio, Studio copies the sample project's files to your Studio workspace, which is normally part of your home directory, with full access rights.
