elixir-gmail

A simple Gmail REST API client for Elixir.

You can find the hex package here, and the docs here.

You can find documentation for Gmail's API at https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/

Usage

First, add the client to your mix.exs dependencies:

def deps do
  [{:gmail, "~> 0.1"}]
end

Then run $ mix do deps.get, compile to download and compile your dependencies.

Finally, add the :gmail application as your list of applications in mix.exs:

def application do
  [applications: [:logger, :gmail]]
end

Notes

  • send (with upload)

Auth

As of now the library doesn't do the initial auth generation for you; you'll need to create an app on the Google Developer Console to get a client ID and secret and authorize a user to get an authorization code, which you can trade for an access token.

The library will however, when you supply a refresh token, use that to refresh an expired access token for you. Take a look in the dev.exs.sample config file to see what your config should look like.

TODO

• Stop mocking HTTP requests and use Bypass instead
• Add format option when fetching threads
• .. and messages
• .. and drafts
• Batched requests
