An application that helps find "Good Morning" Images Automatically.

This project is no longer maintained. Do not contact me for any assistance or any bugs that you may find in this project.

For this project, you will require Python 3.8.

Run the following as a superuser in a terminal:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y libappindicator1 fonts-liberation
mkdir temp
cd temp
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome*.deb

1. Before installing Chromedriver, run:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y unzip xvfb libxi6 libgconf-2-4
sudo apt-get install default-jdk 

2. Go to https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/home.
3. Under the heading "All versions available in Downloads", click on the link next to "Latest stable release".
4. Download your operating system's Chromedriver. Assumably it is in the Downloads folder.
5. Navigate to the downloads folder.
6. Unzip the zip file using unzip chromedriver_*.zip
7. Run the following commands:

sudo mv chromedriver /usr/bin/chromedriver
sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/chromedriver
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/chromedriver

1. Download the repository and extract it into a folder. Let's call that folder the Root Folder.
2. Using a terminal, navigate to the Root Folder
3. (Optional) Create a virtual environment. Run the following commands:

python -m venv venv --prompt "Good Morning Image Finder"
source venv/bin/activate

4. Install the needed libraries by running:

pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Within the Root Directory, create two things:
   • The first is a file named settings.yaml.
   • The second is a directory named imgs.
2. Copy and paste the following text into settings.yaml:

send_email:
  email_host: smtp.gmail.com
  email_user: [email protected]
  email_password: your_email_password
  email_port: 587

receive_email:
  recipients:
    - [email protected]
    - [email protected]
    - [email protected]

3. Replace [email protected] and your_email_password with your Gmail email address and password.
4. By replacing the example recipients in the recipients list, add in the recipients that you want to send the email to.
5. Next, open up main.py. Under # CONSTANTS, change the values of the variables as you wish.

Note: Read Configuring the Project For Your Needs first! While inside the Root Directory (and within your virtual environment, if you have created one), run:

python main.py
