my code:
from Google import Create_Service
import base64
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
CLIENT_SECRET_FILE = 'client_secret.json'
API_NAME = 'gmail'
API_VERSION = 'v1'
SCOPES = ['https://mail.google.com/']
service = Create_Service(CLIENT_SECRET_FILE, API_NAME, API_VERSION, SCOPES)
Any help would be greatly appreciated
You should create in folder of project file Google.py, here code of it
import pickle
import os
from google_auth_oauthlib.flow import Flow, InstalledAppFlow
from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from googleapiclient.http import MediaFileUpload, MediaIoBaseDownload
from google.auth.transport.requests import Request
def Create_Service(client_secret_file, api_name, api_version, *scopes):
print(client_secret_file, api_name, api_version, scopes, sep='-')
CLIENT_SECRET_FILE = client_secret_file
API_SERVICE_NAME = api_name
API_VERSION = api_version
SCOPES = [scope for scope in scopes[0]]
print(SCOPES)
cred = None
pickle_file = f'token_{API_SERVICE_NAME}_{API_VERSION}.pickle'
# print(pickle_file)
if os.path.exists(pickle_file):
with open(pickle_file, 'rb') as token:
cred = pickle.load(token)
if not cred or not cred.valid:
if cred and cred.expired and cred.refresh_token:
cred.refresh(Request())
else:
flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file(CLIENT_SECRET_FILE, SCOPES)
cred = flow.run_local_server()
with open(pickle_file, 'wb') as token:
pickle.dump(cred, token)
try:
service = build(API_SERVICE_NAME, API_VERSION, credentials=cred)
print(API_SERVICE_NAME, 'service created successfully')
return service
except Exception as e:
print('Unable to connect.')
print(e)
return None
