Notification Webhook to be informed using sendgrid authorities

Simple mailchimp & sendgrid setup for notifications

Mailchimp doesn't offer easy notifications if someone subscribes/unsubscribes your mailing list. This is a fast and small setup that allows you to be instantly notified when that happens.

Installation

Clone this repository to a server.

$ git clone https://github.com/ikkyotech/mailchimp-notifier.git .

Create a config.json file that contains all your basic config:

{
    "port": 8083,
    "secret": "a-secret-key-of-your-choice", 
    "sendgrid": {
        "user": "sendgrid-user",
        "password": "sendgrid-password"
    },
    "receipients": ["[email protected]", "[email protected]"],
    "sender": "[email protected]",
    "list": {
        "name": "name-of-your-list-as-shown-in-the-mails",
        "url": "http://url-to-manage-your-list"
    }
}

Starting

Start the server either using

$ npm start

or

$ node server.js

If you want your server to run longer we recommend to use pm2.

That's it, cheers!
