Send email data to HTTP APIs

[ricardobrg]

Reason

Email scrape feature needs to send the data to a server

Description

Implement a method to send email receipt data to the Postman Echo http api. It will follow the same pattern as #30 but instead of image upload it will send the following request:

Generic sample code. Need to be tested:

export default {
  methods: {
    async sendMultipartFormDataRequest(apiUrl, senderEmail, emailBody, attachments) {
      const formData = new FormData();

      // Append fields
      formData.append('senderEmail', senderEmail);
      formData.append('emailBody', emailBody);

      // Append attachments
      for (const attachment of attachments) {
        const file = await this.readFile(attachment);
        formData.append('attachments', file, attachment);
      }

      try {
        const response = await fetch(apiUrl, {
          method: 'POST',
          body: formData,
          headers: {
            'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data',
          },
        });

        if (!response.ok) {
          throw new Error(`HTTP error! Status: ${response.status}`);
        }

        const responseData = await response.json();
        console.log('Response:', responseData);
      } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error:', error);
      }
    },

    async readFile(attachment) {
      return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        const reader = new FileReader();

        reader.onload = (event) => {
          resolve(new Blob([event.target.result]));
        };

        reader.onerror = (error) => {
          reject(error);
        };

        // Read the file as ArrayBuffer
        reader.readAsArrayBuffer(new Blob([attachment]));
      });
    },
  },
};

Success Criteria

• the postman echo api responds with 200
• the data is echoed by the api
