This is a simple Python script that produces an email from a list of diary entries about my son's activities/achievements. It downloads a Word document from Dropbox, parses a table in the document, and sends an appropriate email. It is run every day on my Linux server (using cron).

See this blog post for more details.

Requirements:

  • python-docx

  • emails
  • dropbox

You will also need to set the following environment variables:

  • SMTP_PASSWORD
