Minimal mailing list manager for static sites, with a simple JSON API

Lovecroft 💌

Lovecroft is a minimal mailing list service supporting multiple mailing lists and newsletter authoring with Markdown, integrating with Mailgun. It backs newsletters behind thesephist.com and Atypical Press. Lovecroft acts as a common backend for static sites that need to host email subscriptions, and exposes a cross-origin JSON API for enrolling in and unsubscribing from mailing lists.

JSON API for subscriptions

POST /subscribe/{listName}

{
    givenName: string,
    familyName: string,
    email: string,
}

GET /unsubscribe/{listName}/{token}

How to install?

Hi Linus,

I would like to use Lovecroft. I am not sure how to install it. I will write a detailed installation document on behalf of you. Would you kindly show me or point out to me the steps to install? I have a MacBook pro.

Cheers,

Support Mailgun batch sending

We currently have to work around Mailgun's sending rate limits with timeouts b/c we send individual emails, one Mailgun.Send per recipient. Really what we should be doing is batch-sending in batches of 1000 (Mailgun's max per batch) with customized params for the unsub link.
