where is the .env file?
@ndonnipa take a look on this project here: https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv . It'll clarify on how to use and set ENV Variables throughs this .env file.
I think the description of this project must be updated, at least to reference that link you mentioned before @marcogbarcellos . It is not clear if the owner forgot to add this file, or in fact he assumed we all be heading to the https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv library.
This post explains the situation in an easier context: https://medium.com/@rafaelvidaurre/managing-environment-variables-in-node-js-2cb45a55195f#.pfdp7ld1c
I think the missing info is: "Create a file named .env" <- this file gets included in the deploy and its automatically used to authenticate with the Email Server. No need to load or install any other dependency. I just tested it. Also, the docs are inaccurate, the pull request is valid for the right command serverless invoke -f send -p event.json but @eahefnawy hasn't merged this yet. I think he is not actively checking this project.
Agreed, it needs to be updated the documentation... I had no idea about using -p instead of -e
