How to save data sent from the client to the server in a post request and use that data in another function?
I have a cron job in the server that send email using sengrid sgMail,
My problem is that in order to send that email I need to grab the TO email from the client.
1- I'm sending the email address from the client to the server with a Post Request
- The client POST part is working fine:
2- My problem is how to grab that email address on the server side and pass it to my emailSender function:
I'm able to do it in my email route and I can send a test email
exports.configure = (app) => {
// Test route to ensure API succesfully sends email
app.post('/api/email/', sendEmailTest)
function sendEmailTest(req, res, done) {
let toEmail = req.body.email
emailService.sendEmail(toEmail)
}
}
3- but in another file I have my cronJob function, and my question is how to grab the email that I get from this POST request and use it in the other file?
The third file is something like this:
const emailService = require('../services/emailService');
exports.register = (agenda) => {
agendaInstance = agenda;
// Define what this job will do
agendaInstance.define(jobName, () => {
// Retrieve all alarms from our database
alarmRepo.getAlarms((err, alarms) => {
// Iterate through all alarms
alarms.forEach((alarm) => {
// ...send a mail
let message = `${alarm.text} the email to send`
**How can I pass the email to the sendEmail function**
emailService.sendEmail(message, () => {
console.log(message);
});
});
});
});
};

Normally, you'd store this info in a database. If you're on one server, you might get away with keeping it as a global in node.js
