1 00:00:00,630 --> 00:00:00,900 Good. 2 00:00:01,350 --> 00:00:05,790 I have a few windows open up here, so I have Atom here on the left. 3 00:00:05,820 --> 00:00:07,650 I have my Gmail address. 4 00:00:07,710 --> 00:00:08,970 My Gmail account here, 5 00:00:09,010 --> 00:00:09,450 up here. 6 00:00:10,050 --> 00:00:12,040 And I have my Hotmail account. 7 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:13,470 And also my command line. 8 00:00:14,060 --> 00:00:17,600 So I'll be using Gmail account as an email address from where 9 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:23,360 I'll be sending the e-mails to the users who are sending these data to my Web site. 10 00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:27,300 And then I will use my Hotmail address to test my application. 11 00:00:27,750 --> 00:00:32,940 So I'll be filling that form using my email address of my Hotmail account. 12 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:34,470 And yeah. 13 00:00:34,830 --> 00:00:35,280 That's it. 14 00:00:36,450 --> 00:00:38,610 So where are we know, at what point are we? 15 00:00:39,150 --> 00:00:45,240 Well, we are at the point where we have access to the email and the height values that the user is submitting 16 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,430 in that Web application form. 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,040 And currently we're just printing them out. 18 00:00:51,330 --> 00:00:59,520 So what we need to do is instead of printing them out, we need to apply something like send email and 19 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,510 then we pass this arguments to this, send email. 20 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:07,500 So send email is the name of the function that I'll be creating in just a minute. 21 00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:08,880 Yes. 22 00:01:08,910 --> 00:01:17,310 So I intend to create a function that will get as input, an email address and a value, and then 23 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:23,580 I'll construct some message, so an email incorporating this height in that email string. 24 00:01:24,310 --> 00:01:30,750 Then I'll be sending that email to this email address for my Gmail account. 25 00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:37,170 We can go ahead and write that e-mail function just down here. 26 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:44,340 Or alternatively, which is what I'm going to do and I recommend you do that to to keep your code organized. 27 00:01:44,910 --> 00:01:50,880 So what I'm going to do is in the same level with my app.py script. 28 00:01:52,020 --> 00:02:01,130 So here, which is here, I'm going to create a new file and call that send_email.py. Good. 29 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,800 And here I'm going to create a function. 30 00:02:05,100 --> 00:02:07,700 So let's call the function send email as well. 31 00:02:08,220 --> 00:02:09,980 You can call it whatever you want. 32 00:02:10,290 --> 00:02:11,070 So it doesn't matter. 33 00:02:11,550 --> 00:02:14,490 In my case, it just happened to have the same name with my script. 34 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,270 And then I go here to the app folder. 35 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:27,710 And what I do is say from send email_import send_email. 36 00:02:28,110 --> 00:02:32,580 So I'm importing from the send_email module, which is the script, 37 00:02:33,390 --> 00:02:35,020 I'm importing the send_email function. 38 00:02:35,580 --> 00:02:38,520 And then here I'm here. 39 00:02:38,910 --> 00:02:41,420 I'm using the imported function. 40 00:02:41,790 --> 00:02:44,610 So I'm calling the function that I imported in here. 41 00:02:45,990 --> 00:02:46,770 That is clear. 42 00:02:47,250 --> 00:02:50,230 I believe. One very important tip, though. 43 00:02:50,310 --> 00:02:54,110 Don't name this module email. 44 00:02:54,810 --> 00:02:57,270 So if you name it, email.py. 45 00:02:57,810 --> 00:03:02,190 And when you import you, you say like from email import 46 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:03,000 my function. 47 00:03:04,170 --> 00:03:05,760 That would cause you problems. 48 00:03:05,790 --> 00:03:10,670 Because there's also a module built in module in Python called e-mail. 49 00:03:11,010 --> 00:03:11,770 And you know that. 50 00:03:12,420 --> 00:03:20,490 And so when you do from email import something, you are reserving the email namespace in Python for 51 00:03:20,490 --> 00:03:22,860 your custom module. 52 00:03:23,340 --> 00:03:30,570 That means when if you import email later, so if you import email, you get some problems because 53 00:03:30,810 --> 00:03:33,190 these namespace is already occupied. 54 00:03:33,690 --> 00:03:37,290 So don't use email as the name of your script. 55 00:03:37,860 --> 00:03:41,630 And also in general, don't use module names for your scripts. 56 00:03:42,780 --> 00:03:43,540 Hope that is clear. 57 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,070 And now we go here. 58 00:03:45,180 --> 00:03:51,530 And before even creating that function, we need to import e-mail module. 59 00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:55,590 And I assume you have taken the previous lectures. 60 00:03:55,700 --> 00:04:00,750 Of course, where I taught you how to send e-mails from an e-mail address to another e-mail address 61 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:02,250 via Python. 62 00:04:02,460 --> 00:04:08,170 So I'm not going to explain what the code does because I assume you have taken those lectures. 63 00:04:11,310 --> 00:04:13,080 And I'll try to be quick here. 64 00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:15,720 So define send email. 65 00:04:15,780 --> 00:04:18,420 We need to get the email address. 66 00:04:19,980 --> 00:04:22,980 So from this function call here. 67 00:04:23,250 --> 00:04:27,350 So this email address will be sent to these parameter here. 68 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,870 And also, we need the height. 69 00:04:29,940 --> 00:04:34,210 And later on, we'll add some more here, like average height, some parameters. 70 00:04:34,620 --> 00:04:39,480 When we add some lines down here that calculate that average. 71 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,030 But for now, let's keep things simple. Good. 72 00:04:44,340 --> 00:04:46,350 From email. 73 00:04:51,220 --> 00:05:04,360 @gmail.com, from_password "pythonlecture", I just created a temporary password just for this 74 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:04,900 recording. 75 00:05:06,130 --> 00:05:09,710 From email, from password to email. 76 00:05:10,910 --> 00:05:11,230 Email. 77 00:05:11,570 --> 00:05:18,850 So that is this parameter, which means the user is entering 78 00:05:18,910 --> 00:05:23,510 the email address and the email address is being passed to the function call. 79 00:05:24,430 --> 00:05:26,980 That value will be passed in here. 80 00:05:27,010 --> 00:05:33,550 And that will be passed in here, and then we can use these to_email to install our smtlib library 81 00:05:34,150 --> 00:05:35,770 to send an email to this email address. 82 00:05:36,580 --> 00:05:38,950 Then we have subject. 83 00:05:41,370 --> 00:05:42,370 Let's say "Height data". 84 00:05:42,550 --> 00:05:45,190 And the actual message. 85 00:05:47,010 --> 00:05:53,140 Let's say: "Hey there, your height is", let's use you string formatting there. 86 00:05:53,530 --> 00:05:58,750 So the %s we'll be replaced by the height which we are getting from here. 87 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:00,010 Good. 88 00:06:00,460 --> 00:06:02,920 This will be sent as plain text. 89 00:06:03,340 --> 00:06:07,310 But if you want to make this HTML enabled 90 00:06:08,010 --> 00:06:10,720 we'd want to use mime text. 91 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:16,210 And actually, we need to import that, I imported email earlier. 92 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,760 But, um, sorry if I confused you, but we don't need email. 93 00:06:19,870 --> 00:06:27,400 We need mime.text, import MIME.text. 94 00:06:27,940 --> 00:06:38,260 Actually from thos, from this we import MIME.text than what we do is we create another object there 95 00:06:38,830 --> 00:06:49,860 that will be equal to MIMEText message, variable there and HTML, which means that this line 96 00:06:49,870 --> 00:06:51,410 here will be read as HTML. 97 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:57,090 And that means we can now add HTML email text there. 98 00:06:57,670 --> 00:06:59,440 So if we add this, for instance, 99 00:07:03,190 --> 00:07:09,870 the height value, will be in bold because we are wrapping the height value with these strong tags. 100 00:07:10,750 --> 00:07:10,960 Good. 101 00:07:12,430 --> 00:07:17,600 And out of this message of the object, we access these keys. 102 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,850 So subject equals to subject. 103 00:07:22,850 --> 00:07:23,160 Mm. 104 00:07:24,530 --> 00:07:24,700 Oh. 105 00:07:24,700 --> 00:07:39,280 Also you have the ['To'] key which is equal to_email and then from_email. 106 00:07:39,810 --> 00:07:40,090 Good. 107 00:07:40,810 --> 00:07:48,700 And lastly, I need to log into my Gmail account, so let's create a Gmail variable there that would 108 00:07:48,700 --> 00:07:55,580 be equal to smtplib.SMTP() method. 109 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:57,850 And then guess message. 110 00:08:00,740 --> 00:08:07,970 That we will get this Gmail smtp server address and one of these ports, maybe this 111 00:08:07,970 --> 00:08:08,150 one. 112 00:08:09,950 --> 00:08:15,520 So smtp.gmail.com and 587. 113 00:08:15,940 --> 00:08:20,050 So there's a port and then we apply the age ehlo() method. 114 00:08:21,670 --> 00:08:26,320 Then again, start.tls(). 115 00:08:28,650 --> 00:08:37,970 And lastly, we're ready to log in, login from_email, from_password, password yeah. 116 00:08:39,530 --> 00:08:43,080 So the credential of our email address that we want to log into. 117 00:08:43,510 --> 00:08:47,190 And lastly, we are ready to send the actual message. 118 00:08:47,450 --> 00:08:49,200 So the email object and to do that. 119 00:08:49,260 --> 00:08:54,060 We need to apply the send.message() method to the Gmail object. 120 00:08:54,390 --> 00:08:58,800 And also, you need to pass the message the object that you want to send there, message. 121 00:08:58,890 --> 00:09:08,220 And one last thing you need to do is you want to make sure that in your Gmail account. 122 00:09:09,790 --> 00:09:18,680 And in my account, if you go to connected apps and sites and you go down here, you want to allow 123 00:09:18,690 --> 00:09:21,550 less secure apps to log in to your email address. 124 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:27,400 Unfortunately, Gmail considers smptlib a less secure app. 125 00:09:28,180 --> 00:09:33,930 So you want to turn that on like I have it to you to be able to log in via assumptive pure lip. 126 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:36,050 Good. 127 00:09:36,790 --> 00:09:48,890 And I have to import smptlib there so that I have access to its methods and I'll save this and 128 00:09:48,910 --> 00:09:51,750 try to run it to see what we're going to get. 129 00:09:56,290 --> 00:10:04,350 So localhost5000 with my Hotmail address. 130 00:10:04,540 --> 00:10:05,080 Input a height there. 131 00:10:08,870 --> 00:10:15,310 And yeah, that looks to have gone through, but I need to check my Hotmail. 132 00:10:16,690 --> 00:10:18,520 Yeah, I have got a message here. 133 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:20,050 Hey there. 134 00:10:20,050 --> 00:10:22,990 Your height is 176. 135 00:10:23,710 --> 00:10:25,440 So that is working perfectly. 136 00:10:26,590 --> 00:10:34,930 And, yeah, if there is anything that is not working on your side, then feel free to drop a question 137 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,680 there and I'll try to explain you what's the problem. 138 00:10:39,070 --> 00:10:41,390 But make sure to include any error that you're getting. 139 00:10:42,060 --> 00:10:45,980 So we have one more lecture to go, and in that lecture 140 00:10:45,980 --> 00:10:52,270 we will calculate the average of all the heights that the users are sending to our database. 141 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,620 We will be sending that average to the user via email. 142 00:10:57,580 --> 00:10:57,850 Great. 143 00:10:58,610 --> 00:10:59,260 Well, let's move on.
