Use the Mailchimp API | 易学教程

问题

I'd like to use the Mailchimp Node.js API in my Parse Cloud Hosting app to subscribe a user to a mailing list. Parse doesn't support NPM but, given that the Mailchimp API has no dependencies, I thought I'd be able to copy the code into my project. However, the Mailchimp API uses the "https" module which Parse doesn't support.

Does anyone know of a way around this?

回答1:

I've been unable to use the Mailchimp API directly but the REST API is pretty easy to use.

In main.js, create a Cloud Function. Enter your API key and update the REST URL to point at the correct Mailchimp data center (http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/api/2.0/)

var mailchimpApiKey = "<<REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_KEY>>";

Parse.Cloud.define("SubscribeUserToMailingList", function(request, response) {

  if (!request.params ||
        !request.params.email){
    response.error("Must supply email address, firstname and lastname to Mailchimp signup");
    return;
  }

  var mailchimpData = {
    apikey  : mailchimpApiKey,
    id      : request.params.listid,
    email   : {
      email : request.params.email
    },
    merge_vars : request.params.mergevars
  }

  var url = "https://<<REPLACE_WITH_DATA_CENTRE>>.api.mailchimp.com/2.0/lists/subscribe.json";

  Parse.Cloud.httpRequest({
    method: 'POST',
    url: url,
    body: JSON.stringify(mailchimpData),
    success: function(httpResponse) {
      console.log(httpResponse.text);

      response.success("Successfully subscribed");
    },
    error: function(httpResponse) {
      console.error('Request failed with response code ' + httpResponse.status);
      console.error(httpResponse.text);

      response.error('Mailchimp subscribe failed with response code ' + httpResponse.status);
    }
  });

});

Then, in the code which calls this function... (replace your list ID)

Parse.Cloud.run("SubscribeUserToMailingList", {
    listid      : "<<REPLACE_WITH_LIST_ID>>",
    email       : email,
    mergevars   : {
        FNAME   : firstName,
        LNAME   : lastName
    }
})
.then(function(success){
    console.log("Successfully subscribed");
    // ...
},
function(error){
    console.log("Unable to subscribe");
    // ...
});

Install mailchimp in your project
```
npm install mailchimp-api
```

From client controller call the server-controller with required data
Don't forget to add $http to the top of controller

$http({
    method : 'POST',
    url : '/mailchimp-users/subscribe',
    data : {user:this.name}}).
        success(function(response) {
    console.log("hai this is basic test" + response);
    $scope.send = response.message;
}).error(function(response) {
    $scope.error = response.message;
});

In server controller Add this to the beginning of page

var MailchimpUser = mongoose.model('MailchimpUser'),
_ = require('lodash'),
mcapi = require('mailchimp-api');
var apiKey = '4bf6fb8820c333da4179216c3c2ef8fb-us10';
// Change this to your Key
var listID = 'ebbf193760';
var mc = new mcapi.Mailchimp(apiKey, {version: '2.0'});

Add this function

exports.subscribe = function(req, res) {
    var entry = req.body.user;
    var mcReq = {
        apikey: '4bf6fb8820c333da4179216c3c2ef8fb-us10',
        id: 'ebbf193760',
        email: {email: entry + '@gmail.com'},
        merge_vars: {
            FNAME: 'subscriber-first-name',
            LNAME: 'subscriber-last-name'
        },
        'double_optin': false,
        'send_welcome': true
    }
    // submit subscription request to mail chimp
    mc.lists.subscribe(mcReq, function(data) {
        console.log(data);
    }, function(error) {
        console.log(error);
    });
};

Add this route your route file

app.route('/mailchimp-users/subscribe')
   .post(mailchimpUsers.subscribe);

Here's how I got it to work using the MailChimp API v3.0, the method below supports adding/updating a subscriber, as well as adding/removing him to/from a Group!

Prerequisite: You need to get an MD5 hash method to convert the user's email into a hash.

Here's the one I used: http://www.webtoolkit.info/javascript-md5.html#.Vuz-yjZOwXV
Copy the code in the link, and paste it into a newly created file, name it "md5js.js" for example.
Update the code you copied to start with exports.MD5 = function (string) {
You can test the conversion you got from the copy/pasted module by comparing the result with this online tool: http://www.miraclesalad.com/webtools/md5.php

    var jsmd5 = require('cloud/md5js.js');

    // here replace that with your own data center (by looking at your API key).
    var datacenter = "us13";
    var MAILCHIMP_URL = "https://<any_string>:<apikey>@" + datacenter + ".api.mailchimp.com/3.0/";
    var MAILCHIMP_LIST_NEWSLETTER_ID = <yourlistId>;

    Parse.Cloud.define("SubscribeUserToMailingList", function(request, response) {

      if (!request.params ||
            !request.params.email){
        response.error("Must supply email address, firstname and lastname to Mailchimp signup");
        return;
      }

      var email = request.params.email;
      var firstName = request.params.firstname;
      var lastName = request.params.lastname;

      // this converts the email string into an MD5 hash.
      // this is Required if you want to use a "PUT" which allows add/update of an entry, compared to the POST that allows only adding a new subscriber.
      var emailHash = jsmd5.MD5(email);

      var mailchimpData = {
        'email_address': email,
        'status': "subscribed",
        'merge_fields': {
          'FNAME': firstName,
          'LNAME': lastName
        },
        'interests': {
          "<groupID>": true  // optional, if you want to add the user to a "Group".
        }
      };

      var url = MAILCHIMP_URL + "lists/" + MAILCHIMP_LIST_NEWSLETTER_ID + "/members/" + emailHash;

      // using a "PUT" allows you to add/update an entry.
      Parse.Cloud.httpRequest({
        method: 'PUT',
        url: url,
        body: JSON.stringify(mailchimpData),
        success: function(httpResponse) {
          console.log(httpResponse.text);

          response.success("Successfully subscribed");
        },
        error: function(httpResponse) {
          console.error('Request failed with response code ' + httpResponse.status);
          console.error(httpResponse.text);

          response.error('Mailchimp subscribe failed with response code ' + httpResponse.status);
        }
      });
    });
