Serialize MIME to a String

Demonstrates the Chilkat Mime.GetMime method, which serializes and returns the complete MIME entity — headers, body, multipart boundaries, and all descendants — as a string. It takes no arguments.

Background: This produces the finished MIME text ready to send, store, or hand to another component — the inverse of loading. The whole tree is emitted, including generated multipart boundaries. Because it returns a string, it is best for text-safe content; when the body may contain raw binary bytes, serialize with GetMimeBd to a BinData instead so nothing is altered.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

//  Demonstrates the Mime.GetMime method, which serializes and returns the complete MIME entity
//  (headers, body, multipart boundaries, and all descendants) as a string.  It takes no
//  arguments.

var mime = new CkMime();

//  Build a simple MIME entity.
success = mime.SetBodyFromPlainText("Hello, this is the message body.");
if (success == false) {
    console.log(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Serialize it to a string.
var mimeText = mime.GetMime();
if (mime.LastMethodSuccess == false) {
    console.log(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log(mimeText);
