Tired of manually deleting emails? run this and it will automatically delete emails from people you specify from.

Raw Source code:​

https://github.com/mel3kings/startup-snippets/tree/main/blog/googlemailmanager

Prerequisites​

  • npm run install
  • Connect your Gmail with GCP and create your own credentials.json
    • (Should still be valid) credentials.json generated from GCP. (download from GCP API & Services Credentials)
  • Configure deleteEmails.js to add the emails you want to delete from.

How to start​

npm run start

Refresh token:​

  • note: if you change scope you need to delete token.json to regenerate a new one. also reset secret in GCP.
  • note: has some issues if there is an active token elsewhere.

GCP console:​

Curious what it takes to build a serverless API?

Raw Source code:​

https://github.com/mel3kings/startup-snippets/tree/main/blog/lambda

Serverless notes​

  • API gateway needs lambda to have this format in the response to not throw malformed exception:
    {
        'statusCode': 200,
        'headers': {
        },
        'body': json.dumps(response_list),
        'isBase64Encoded': 'false'
    }

Lambda​

  • needs to deploy before testing
  • throttle request set to 1 for singleton

stages - relative path, needs to deploy first before it goes live
