SparkPost Bounce Forwarding Service

A small Heroku service that will consume webhook POSTs for out-of-band bounces and forward them through the Transmissions API to a mailbox.

Deployment

Start by clicking on the following button:

Once the deployment completes click on the "View" button under "Your app was successfully deployed". (Alternatively browse to https://<your-app-name>.herokuapp.com/index.html.)

If a FORWARD_FROM address was chosen other than the default [email protected] then a sending domain will need to be created and verified. To get to the SparkPost UI browse to the "Resources" tab of the newly created app in the Heroku Dashboard, and then click "SparkPost".

Deploying Manually

1. Register for an account with Heroku and install the Heroku Toolbelt for your operating system. Then log in:

   heroku login
   

2. Clone the repository and install:

   git clone [email protected]:SparkPost/sp-bounce-forwarding-service.git
   cd sp-bounce-forwarding-service
   npm install
   

3. Create the heroku app:

   heroku create
   

4. Configure the required add-ons:

   heroku addons:create heroku-redis:hobby-dev
   heroku addons:create sparkpost:free
   

   Note: The SparkPost add-on will automatically create a SparkPost account and set up the appropriate key. If you already have an account and wish to use that do not run the addons:create sparkpost:free command. Then set the following config var:

   heroku config:set SPARKPOST_API_KEY=<your-api-key-here>
   

5. Configure the app:

   heroku config:set FORWARD_FROM=<the-from-address-to-use>
   heroku config:set FORWARD_TO=<the-recipient-of--forward-messages>
   

6. Deploy the app:

   git push heroku master
