Getting Started

Installation

pip install git+https://github.com/ayushgun/easygmail

Prerequisites

Before using EasyGmail, ensure you have an app password for Gmail. Do not use your regular account password.

Quick Start Example

from easygmail import Client, EmailBuilder

client = Client("<address>@gmail.com", "<app password>")

msg = EmailBuilder(
    receiver="<recipient>@domain.com", subject="<subject text>", body="<body text>"
).build()

client.send(msg)

Client Initialization

You can instantiate a Client object in two ways:

Direct Credentials: Provide email address and app password directly as arguments.

from easygmail import Client

client = Client("<address>@gmail.com", "<app password>")

Environment File: Use a .env file to store credentials.

from easygmail import Client

client = Client(env_file=".env")

Your .env file should contain:

EMAIL_ADDRESS="<address>@gmail.com"
PASSWORD="<app password>"

Creating Email Messages

Create EmailMessage objects using one of the following methods:

EmailBuilder Constructor:

from easygmail import EmailBuilder

msg = EmailBuilder(
    receiver="<recipient>@domain.com", subject="<subject text>", body="<body text>"
).build()

EmailBuilder Factory Interface:

from easygmail import EmailBuilder

msg = (
    EmailBuilder()
    .set_receiver("<recipient>@domain.com")
    .set_subject("<subject text>")
    .set_body("<body text>")
).build()

Directly Using EmailMessage:

from email.message import EmailMessage

msg = EmailMessage()
msg["To"] = "<recipient>@domain.com"
msg["Subject"] = "<subject text>"
msg.set_content("<body text>")
