A script to send a daily report of assignments with their respective due dates from Google Classroom.

pip install -r requirements.txt

First, get your clientID and secretID from Google Cloud. Sign in with the Gmail account that is associated with Google Classroom and click on the "Enable the Classroom API" button at this link. Enter the new project name as "ClassReport", select "Desktop App" from the dropdown menu, and download the Client Configuration. This will be in the form of a json, called credentials.json. Move this file to the directory where you have cloned this project. This file will be necessary in authenticating the Google Classroom API.

Then, create a file in this directory called config.yaml. This will store all of the email client related properties. Here's an example:

# yaml config file for email client setup
sender: [email protected]
sender_password: reportPassword
receiver: [email protected]

To run the script, make sure to pass in the config.yaml file as well as the credentials.json file.

$ python class_report.py credentials.json config.yaml

I am currently implementing this via a cronjob so that the email gets sent out every day at a given time. Enjoy!
