Still get the same error, maybe the issue comes from jsreport itself, or configuration???

Hi jan_blaha,
Actually I need to send an HTML email with some parameters and attachments, I used the example and it worked perfectly. But I need a more complex HTML email, so that I need someway to read the external file from the script. Currently, I solved the problem with built-in html feature of nodemailer, but it is not a good practice. Do you know how to read file from script? Thanks in advance

I think that the error is not that of trying to read directory instead for a file. I have also tried fs to read file to test but still get the same error, despite the fact that the path is correct. Do you have an example of reading a file from script? Thanks in advance.

I tried the example here "https://writejavascript.com/blog/sending-emails-with-node/". I set up the structure of directory as shown in the code and it can access the directory but always yield error: Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read. The code as shown below:

function afterRender(req, res, done) {
    console.log('After rendered report.....................');
    console.log(req.data);
    
    var mailer = require("nodemailer");

    var hbs = require("nodemailer-express-handlebars");



    var smtpTransport = mailer.createTransport({
        host : "mail.xxx.no",
        port : 465,
        secure: true,
        auth : {
            user : "noreply@xxx.no",
            pass : "xxx"
        },
        tls : {
            rejectUnauthorized: false
        }

    });

    var options = {
        viewEngine : {
            extname: ".hbs",
            partialsDir: './data/etakeaway/Invoice/views',
            layoutsDir: './data/etakeaway/Invoice/views/layouts'
        },
        viewPath : './data/etakeaway/Invoice/views',
        extName: ".hbs"

    };

    smtpTransport.use('compile', hbs(options));

    var mail = {
        from: "XXX <noreply@xxx.no>",
        to: req.data.email,
        subject: "Receipt for order id " + req.data.orderId,
        text: "See the attached report",
        template: 'template',
        context: {
            name : 'Name',
            orderId : '#123456'
        },
        attachments: [
        {  
            filename: 'Receipt.pdf',
            content: new Buffer(res.content)
        }],
    }

    smtpTransport.sendMail(mail, function(error, response){
        smtpTransport.close();
        if(error){
            return done(error);
        }

        return done();
    });
}

I have also tried fs to read the file, but got the same error???

I use jsreport with nodemailer and nodemailer-express-handlebars to create html email. However in the afterRender script, the script could not access template.handlebar when configuring, it always yield an error: Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read. Do anyone how can I access file from script?
Thanks in advance
