TrojanPass

Tired of Trojan Check every day? You need this. TrojanPass will automate the process of wellness assessment and send the pass to your mailbox.

You can use cron to schedule TrojanCheck, making your life easier.

What you need to have

• A USC account (SSO)
• A Gmail account with App Passwords, this is required for security concerns

Deploy to Cloud

Heroku (Recommend)

You need to verify your account (by adding a credit card)if you want to schedule a daily job. This project never use any Dyno quota. It should be okay if you only use heroku to run this project.

First, in the project root, run ./heroku_deploy.sh, then set environment variable by

heroku config:set TROJAN_PASS_NETID=<Your Net ID>
heroku config:set TROJAN_PASS_PASSWORD=<Your NetID password>
heroku config:set TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_ACCOUNT=<Your Gmail Account>
heroku config:set TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_PASSWORD=<Your Gmail Password>

Note: It should be secure if you only set your credential as Heroku config under the assumption of a strong password for Heroku account.

Last, deploy and trigger the build:

# Only for deploy
git add . && git commit --allow-empty -m "trigger deploy" && git push heroku main

To get the pass, run heroku run get_pass inside your heroku project.

Optional: Add daily job

Select your 'trojan-pass-' project in Heroku dashboard, then click Heroku Scheduler in Installed add-ons.

Create a job at 3:00 PM everyday (UTC time) running python main.py. This will let Heroku server send you a pass every day at 8:00 AM PTDt time.

GitHub Actions

This could violate GitHub Action's term of use, but should be fine if you just want to test for a few weeks.

Fork this project, then add the following project secrets:

• TROJAN_PASS_NETID
• TROJAN_PASS_PASSWORD
• TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_ACCOUNT
• TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_PASSWORD

You need to

1. enable repo Action (appear as in tabs above the repo name)
2. enable Get Trojan Pass Action
3. run it instantly or wait for the automation

Quick Setup on Your Machine

On Ubuntu with bash:

git clone https://github.com/dqwert/TrojanPass.git
cd TrojanPass

# root privilege required
./scripts/setup_firefox.sh

# IMPORTANT: replace <>s with your info
`printf '\n# Trojan Pass\nexport TROJAN_PASS_NETID="<Your Net ID>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_PASSWORD="<Your NetID password>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_ACCOUNT="<Your Gmail Account>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_PASSWORD="<Your Gmail Password>"\n' >> ~/.bash_profile

python3 main.py

Optional: setup crontab, see below.

Project Setup

Environment Variables

• set your system environment variables:
  • Unix
    • ZSH: printf '\n# Trojan Pass\nexport TROJAN_PASS_NETID="<Your Net ID>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_PASSWORD="<Your NetID password>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_ACCOUNT="<Your Gmail Account>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_PASSWORD="<Your Gmail Password>"\n' >> ~/.zshrc
    • Bash: printf '\n# Trojan Pass\nexport TROJAN_PASS_NETID="<Your Net ID>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_PASSWORD="<Your NetID password>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_ACCOUNT="<Your Gmail Account>"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_PASSWORD="<Your Gmail Password>"\n' >> ~/.bash_profile (or >> ~/.bashrc).
    • Note: use echo in macOS and printf on Linux
    • For example, on macOS 11.6, suppose the NET ID is wq, password is foo, Gmail account is wangqin0.me@gmail.com, Gmail password is fool open the Terminal and execute echo '\n# Trojan Pass\nexport TROJAN_PASS_NETID="wq"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_PASSWORD="foo"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_ACCOUNT="wangqin0.me@gmail.com"\nexport TROJAN_PASS_GMAIL_PASSWORD="fool"\n' >> ~/.zshrc
  • Windows
    • The py-dotenv helps Windows user to set up Environment Variables easily, all you need is a .env file inside the project folder. You can take a look at the format in .env.examples.
    • Also, you can set up environment variables manually, take look at about_Environment_Variables in Microsoft Docs.
  • Notice that <> is NOT in the actual command; for security concerns, please don't hard code your password into the program.
