oauth2 json format

[mourgaya]

Hello, I would like to use oauth2, so I have created an id with option "web type" and also try with an "application type", but both failed.

The id web type failed with this message:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "testgmail.py", line 3, in yag = yagmail.SMTP("eyyyy.xxxxxxx@gmail.com", oauth2_file="~/client_secret.json") File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/yagmail-0.9.179-py2.7.egg/yagmail/sender.py", line 74, in init self.login_oauth2(oauth2_file) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/yagmail-0.9.179-py2.7.egg/yagmail/sender.py", line 198, in login_oauth2 auth_string = get_oauth_string(self.user, oauth2_info) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/yagmail-0.9.179-py2.7.egg/yagmail/oauth2.py", line 96, in get_oauth_string access_token, expires_in = refresh_authorization(**oauth2_info) TypeError: refresh_authorization() got an unexpected keyword argument 'web'

I think the json file is not the good one with yagmail, can you help me with these input?

---------------------------------------------cllient_secret.json {"web":{"client_id":"xxxxxxx.apps.googleusercontent.com","project_id":"inspired-iiiuuuuu","auth_uri":"https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth","token_uri":"https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token","auth_provider_x509_cert_url":"https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs","client_secret":"TTTTTTbbskn"}}

and -----------------------------------------------------testgmail.py import yagmail

yag = yagmail.SMTP("yyyy.zzzzzzz@gmail.com", oauth2_file="~/client_secret.json")

Hey, thanks for posting.

Just to make sure: did you try deleting client_secret.json and have yagmail create it from the ground up?

Thanks a lot it works now.

I have just included the following code in yagmail in order to support a JSON file format:

def get_oauth_string(user, oauth2_info):
    client_id = oauth2_info['google_client_id']
    client_secret = oauth2_info['google_client_secret']
    rtoken = oauth2_info['google_refresh_token']
    access_token, expires_in = refresh_authorization(
        client_id, client_secret, rtoken
    )
    auth_string = generate_oauth2_string(user, access_token, as_base64=True)
    return auth_string

I think that either something like this or publishing the format for the JSON file that yagmail expects would be highly appreciated by beginners like me.

Please let me know which solution you find more useful! I can help in writing documentation if you want!
