Dependencies

Setup

  1. Set up a Google Voice number and make sure it forwards texts to your email. This can be changed in your Google Voice settings under Voicemail & Text > Text Forwarding.
  2. Create a Gmail filter to catch the Google Voice emails you receive when you text yourself. Label them with calendar.
  3. Obtain a Twilio phone number and fill in the fields of twilio.gs with your Account SID, Auth Token, your Twilio phone number, and the phone number you'd like to receive notifications from. You can find the first two on your Twilio dashboard and the third on the Numbers tab.
  4. Create a new project at http://script.google.com. Copy and paste the scripts into script files.
  5. Set triggers (under Resources > Current project's triggers) to run main every minute. Note: the first time you do this, you will need to authorize the script to run.
