gmail
-----
The 'gmail' module provides a simple wrapper around the smtplib/email
modules to provide an easy programmatic interface for sending email using
the GMail SMTP service.
The module provides the following classes:
GMail - Basic interface to GMail SMTP service
GMailWorker - Background worker to send messages asynchronously
(uses multiprocessing module)
GMailHandler - GMail handler for logging framework
Message - Wrapper around email.Message class simplifying
creation of email message objects
The module also provides a cli interface to send email if run directly
(python -mgmail.cli)
Basic usage:
>>> gmail = GMail('A.User <user@gmail.com>','password')
>>> msg = Message('Test Message',to='xyz <xyz@xyz.com>',text='Hello')
>>> gmail.send(msg)
Note: You will need to setup an application-specific password rather
than using your account-password - see:
https://support.google.com/mail/?p=InvalidSecondFactor
https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords
The Message class also provides support to simply generate html email and
add attachments.
>>> msg = Message('Test Message',to='xyz@xyz.com',text="Hello",html="<b>Hello</b>",attachments=['img.jpg'])
In Python3 messages will be unicode (utf8) encoded by default unless the
text is passed a a bytes object (the inverse is true in Python 2)
For examples of use see cli.py and test_gmail.py/test_message.py
