E-mail confirmation

KDone supports e-mail confirmation process after sign up. If configured, an e-mail is sent to the user after sign up. This e-mail contains a link that confirms users’ e-mail.

STMP Client

In order to add the ability to send e-mail, it’s necessary to configure an SMTP Client. KDone embeds an SMTP client that can be configured with host and credentials. Port is 465 by default.

val smtpClient = smtpClient(Email.host, Email.username, Email.password)

E-mail confirmation configuration

E-mail configuration has these parameters:

• SMTP client
• Base URL of the webserver
• Redirect URL, to which user will be redirected to (optional)
• E-mail format configuration function, that lets to specify an e-mail format using the e-mail confirmation link provided by KDone.

Inside userModule DSL

emailConfirmation(
   emailSender = smtpClient,
   baseURL = Server.baseURL,
   redirectURL = "https://google.it") {
      link ->
         email(senderName = "Info",
            senderAddress = "no-reply@email.com",
            subject = "Confirm",
            message = """
               Use this link to confirm
               $link
            """.trimIndent())
      }

This configuration will send an e-mail after user signup, using username as the e-mail address. The e-mail will contain a link like https://site.com/users/auth/veryfy/<code>, that, when opened, will confirm the user’s e-mail address.

By default the e-mail confirmation is not mandatory to let users perform the login. It can be configured as mandatory in userModule DSL.
