I am trying to deploy a simple Node app that sends an email on a webhook from an external service. I can get it to run fine on my machine but once I deploy it to heroku I get a ERRCONNREFUSED on every post request. I've also tried setting the port to 465 for the createTransport function and still receive the same error.
Error
{ Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:587 at _exceptionWithHostPort (util.js:1044:20) at Object._errnoException (util.js:1022:11) at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:1182:14) code: 'ECONNECTION', errno: 'ECONNREFUSED',syscall: 'connect',address: '127.0.0.1', port: 587, command: 'CONN' }
index.js
const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const nodemailer = require('nodemailer');
const app = express();
var port = process.env.PORT || 8800;
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.post('/', function(req, res) {
var messageBody = {};
messageBody.name = req.body.name;
messageBody.amount = req.body.amount_in_cash;
messageBody.phone = req.body.phone;
messageBody.email = req.body.email;
if (!req.body.uid) {
return console.log("No UID");
}
var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
service : 'smtp.gmail.com',
auth : {
user : '[email protected]',
pass : 'xxxxxx'
}
});
var mailOptions = {
from: '[email protected]',
to : '[email protected]',
subject : "New Donation Lead",
text : `Name: ${messageBody.name}\nPhone: ${messageBody.phone}\nEmail:
${messageBody.email}\nAmount: ${messageBody.amount}`
}
transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, info) {
if(error) {
console.log(error);
} else {
console.log("message sent");
}
});
res.send(200).end();
});
app.listen(port, () => console.log('Listening on port: '+ port));
