Simple Gmail Bot
It relays messages to and from a phone number and to the email address based on the specified contents in config.py
. Basic functionality of the bot includes telling the phone number that the gmail bot is online, and can respond with Pong!
upon texting a message to the gmail account with !ping
.
As a note when filling out config.py, phone_address
is specified because phone numbers are similarly email addresses. Not only do you need to supply a phone number, but also the email extension of the number based on your mobile service provider. For example, if you had verizon it'd be 1234567890@vtext.com
, where the numbers are arbitrary and represent your specified phone number to send messages to.
