Google Groups Messеnger

Create new conversation in Google groups using playwright (with Firefox as a headless browser).

(Have in mind that this will work only if you don't have two-factor authentication for your gmail account)

Usage

Copy example.config.json to config.json and fill the placeholders.

Locally

1. Run yarn
2. Run yarn playwright install
3. Run yarn dev and open http://localhost:8080/
4. You'll probably need to update /server/public/index.html with your pre-filled subject and text.

In the cloud

The project is prepared for deploying in GCP's cloud run.

1. Copy example.cloudbuild.yaml to cloudbuild.yaml and replace the placeholders.
2. Run yarn deploy (Of course you should have gcloud CLI already working)

P.S. You may need to make your Google account a manager of the group. This has nothing to do with the automation here. It's just a weird (maybe) bug and every new post falls into the "pending conversations" folder of the group.
