Here's a step-by-step guide:
1. Install Required Libraries: First, you need to install the `smtplib` and `schedule` libraries if you haven't already. You can install them via pip: ``` pip install secure-smtplib schedule ``` 2. Write the Script: Here's a basic script that sends a daily email report: ```python import smtplib from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart from email.mime.text import MIMEText import schedule import time def send_email(): # Email credentials sender_email = "your_email@gmail.com" sender_password = "your_password" receiver_email = "recipient_email@gmail.com" # Create message container msg = MIMEMultipart() msg['From'] = sender_email msg['To'] = receiver_email msg['Subject'] = "Daily Report" # Email content body = "This is your daily report." msg.attach(MIMEText(body, 'plain')) # Connect to SMTP server with smtplib.SMTP_SSL('smtp.gmail.com', 465) as server: server.login(sender_email, sender_password) server.send_message(msg) # Schedule the email to be sent daily at a specific time schedule.every().day.at("08:00").do(send_email) # Main loop to continuously check the schedule while True: schedule.run_pending() time.sleep(60) # Check every minute ``` 3. Configure Your Email Credentials: Replace `"your_email@gmail.com"`, `"your_password"`, and `"recipient_email@gmail.com"` with your email credentials and the recipient's email address. 4. Run the Script: Save the script in a file, for example, `daily_email_report.py`, and run it using: ``` python daily_email_report.py ``` 5. Keep the Script Running: Keep the script running on your server or local machine. It will automatically send the daily email report at the specified time. That's it! You've successfully set up a Python script to automate sending daily email reports.
