resend（resend 工具）

Resend Email API Emulator

Fully stateful Resend API emulation. Emails, domains, API keys, audiences, and contacts persist in memory. Sent emails are captured and viewable through the inbox UI or the REST API.

No real emails are sent. Every call to POST /emails stores the message locally so you can inspect it programmatically or in the browser.

Start

# Resend only
npx emulate --service resend

# Default port (when run alone)
# http://localhost:4000

Or programmatically:

import { createEmulator } from 'emulate'

const resend = await createEmulator({ service: 'resend', port: 4000 })
// resend.url === 'http://localhost:4000'

Auth

Pass tokens as Authorization: Bearer <token>. Any re_ prefixed token is accepted.

curl http://localhost:4000/emails \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer re_test_key"

When no token is provided, requests fall back to the default user.

Pointing Your App at the Emulator

Environment Variable (Resend SDK)

The official Resend Node.js SDK reads RESEND_BASE_URL at module load time. Set it to the emulator URL and the SDK works without any code changes:

RESEND_BASE_URL=http://localhost:4000

import { Resend } from 'resend'

// No baseUrl argument needed; the SDK reads RESEND_BASE_URL automatically.
const resend = new Resend('re_test_key')

await resend.emails.send({
  from: 'hello@example.com',
  to: 'user@example.com',
  subject: 'Hello',
  html: '<p>It works!</p>',
})

Embedded in Next.js (adapter-next)

When using @emulators/adapter-next, the emulator runs inside your Next.js app at /emulate/resend. Set RESEND_BASE_URL via next.config.ts:

// next.config.ts
import { withEmulate } from '@emulators/adapter-next'

export default withEmulate({
  env: {
    RESEND_BASE_URL: `http://localhost:${process.env.PORT ?? '3000'}/emulate/resend`,
  },
})

// app/emulate/[...path]/route.ts
import { createEmulateHandler } from '@emulators/adapter-next'
import * as resend from '@emulators/resend'

export const { GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE } = createEmulateHandler({
  services: {
    resend: {
      emulator: resend,
      seed: {
        domains: [{ name: 'example.com' }],
      },
    },
  },
})

Direct fetch

If you cannot use the SDK or env var, call the emulator directly:

await fetch('http://localhost:4000/emails', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer re_test_key',
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    from: 'hello@example.com',
    to: 'user@example.com',
    subject: 'Hello',
    html: '<p>It works!</p>',
  }),
})

Seed Config

resend:
  domains:
    - name: example.com
      region: us-east-1
  contacts:
    - email: test@example.com
      first_name: Test
      last_name: User
      audience: Default

Retrieving Sent Emails

This is the key differentiator of the emulator: every email sent via POST /emails is stored and queryable.

Inbox UI

Browse sent emails in the browser:

http://localhost:4000/inbox

REST API

# List all sent emails
curl http://localhost:4000/emails \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer re_test_key"

# Get a single email by ID
curl http://localhost:4000/emails/<id> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer re_test_key"

Extracting Data from Emails (tests, agents)

Useful for completing magic link, verification code, or password reset flows programmatically:

# Get the latest email ID
EMAIL_ID=$(curl -s http://localhost:4000/emails \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer re_test_key" | jq -r '.data[0].id')

# Extract a 6-digit code from the HTML body
CODE=$(curl -s http://localhost:4000/emails/$EMAIL_ID \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer re_test_key" | jq -r '.html' | grep -oE '[0-9]{6}')

echo "Verification code: $CODE"

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "Production"}'

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

# Delete contact
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:4000/audiences/<audience_id>/contacts/<id> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

Webhooks

The emulator dispatches webhook events when state changes:

• email.sent and email.delivered on POST /emails
• domain.created and domain.deleted on domain operations
• contact.created and contact.deleted on contact operations

Common Patterns

Magic Link / Verification Code Flow

TOKEN="re_test_key"
BASE="http://localhost:4000"

# 1. Send verification email
curl -X POST $BASE/emails \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"from": "auth@example.com", "to": "user@example.com", "subject": "Your code", "html": "<p>Code: <strong>482910</strong></p>"}'

# 2. Retrieve the email
EMAIL_ID=$(curl -s $BASE/emails -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" | jq -r '.data[0].id')

# 3. Read the HTML body
curl -s $BASE/emails/$EMAIL_ID -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" | jq -r '.html'

Send and Verify in a Test

import { createEmulator } from 'emulate'
import { Resend } from 'resend'

const emu = await createEmulator({ service: 'resend', port: 4000 })

process.env.RESEND_BASE_URL = emu.url
const resend = new Resend('re_test_key')

// Send
await resend.emails.send({
  from: 'auth@example.com',
  to: 'user@test.com',
  subject: 'Verify',
  html: '<p>Code: <strong>123456</strong></p>',
})

// Retrieve
const res = await fetch(`${emu.url}/emails`, {
  headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer re_test_key' },
})
const { data: emails } = await res.json()
console.log(emails[0].html) // contains "123456"
