Setup for single contact form

Configure the path to be intercepted on your server and the email details for sending out form data in the DocPad configuration file (aka docpad.coffee):

	plugins:
		contactify:
			path: '/contact-form'
			transport: {
				service: 'Gmail',
				auth: {
					user: '[email protected]',
					pass: 'password'
				}
			}
			from: me@site.name,
			redirect: '/'
			to: '[email protected]'

Setup for multiple contact forms

Configure the path to be intercepted on your server and the email details for sending out form data in the DocPad configuration file (aka docpad.coffee):

	plugins:
		contactify:
			contact:
				path: '/contact-form'
				from: me@site.name,
				redirect: '/'
				to: '[email protected]'
				subject: 'Inquiry' # OPTIONAL
				honeypot: 'honey' # OPTIONAL: honeypot input field name
				fields: ['message', 'phone-number', 'address']
			subscribe:
				path: '/subscribe-form'
				from: you@site.name,
				redirect: '/'
				to: '[email protected]'
				subject: 'Subscribe to newsletter'
				honeypot: 'honey'
				fields: ['message', 'list']
			transport: {
				service: 'Gmail',
				auth: {
					user: '[email protected]',
					pass: 'password'
				}
			}

API:

• path: should match the POST action on your site's form.

• transport: configures an SMTP transport instance using nodemailer (any email account should do, it is where the mail is sent from)

• from: you can here force a value to put in the 'from' field in the sent email. By default the from value is the email of the person who send the contact form.

• redirect: options that will be overwritten by the hidden input called redirect in your form (if it exists)

• to: list of destination email addresses for sending form submissions (comma separated)

• subject: OPTIONAL subject line of email

• honeypot: OPTIONAL: honeypot input field name for spam prevention. If this field is filled out mail will not send

• fields: OPTIONAL: a list of input field names to include in email message. DEFAULT: ['message']

Then create your contact form:

<form action="/contact-form" method="POST">
	<fieldset>
		<legend>Contact form</legend>
		<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="<%- @document.url %>?formSent=1">
		<p>
			<label for="name">Name/company</label>
			<input type="text" id="name" name="name" placeholder="Name/company" />
		</p>
		<p>
			<label for="email">Your email adress</label>
			<input type="email" id="email" name="email" placeholder="[email protected]" />
		</p>
		<p>
			<label for="message">My message</label>
			<textarea id="message" name="message" cols="10" rows="10" placeholder="Your message..."></textarea>
		</p>
		<p>
			<button type="submit" value="Send" name="contact-send" id="contact-send">Send</button>
		</p>
	</fieldset>
</form>

Note that here the hidden input 'redirect' will redirect to the page where the form was sent from, you can hard-code any other url you want in there
