vb_gcal

Pulls in a schedule of games for the latest team and creates google calendar events (optionally inviting teammates to the event).

Setup Environment

You must set up you config files, vendor files, and install dependencies.

To set up the configuration, create a config folder with the following files.

• config.yml: application-wide config. See config.yml_sample for expected values
• emails.txt: return-delimited list of emails to add as guest to the events
• credentials.json: google calendar credentials. Check out gcal quickstart for how to get this file
• token.json: google calendar auth token. This file is automatically generated and must be deleted if/when scopes change

This utility uses Chrome as the webdriver. If an outdated driver is detected, a new one will be installed into /vendor and you will need to re-run the utility. You may need to manually run it once if the quarantine flag fails to be removed. Additionally, until latest is specified as the webdriver filename, you will need to manually update your env config.

Google Calendar events need to have a valid auth token stored in config/token.json. Once the token expires, remove the file and run the utility again. It will prompt for auth in a web browser and automatically store the newly generated token.

Game info is locked behind a secure portal. To log in, credentials must be specified. While hard-coded strings can be specified, credentials can be pulled from 1Password via CLI. See here on how to get started. Once the CLI is enabled in 1password, you will be able to copy the secret reference and store that in the YML config.

Dependencies can be installed with poetry install.
