zoom-earlybird

Python bot that automatically signs in to Zoom using SSO (only supported domains) and attends a meeting schedule.
Requires Python 3.6 or greater.

Contributing

Contributions and pull-requests are very much welcome.
These topics stand out:

• Passing URLs to zoom client on macOS (executing binary or using open?)
• Support for more SSO domains

Requirements

Python 3.6 or newer is required to run this.
The dependencies listed in the requirements.txt file must also be satisfied:

• requests
• psutil

You can do this with python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Setup

Must be run with the current working directory set.

cd zoom-earlybird
python main.py

Firstly the config.json file will be created. You will have to provide:

• The path to your zoom executable so that we can pass URLs to it:
  On Windows, follow the shortcuts until you find your Zoom.exe, then copy it's location and submit the full path.
  It should look something like: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Zoom\bin\Zoom.exe
  On Linux whereis will be used to attempt to locate the install location.
  It should look somethin like: /usr/bin/zoom
• Your SSO identity provider's URL. Choose one from the list, enter your own or leave it empty if you don't want to use SSO login.
• SSO username and password, once again no need to fill in if not using SSO.

Lastly you will need to fill in your schedule in the config.json file.
Follow the template in JSON syntax and use URLs in their standard format:
https://videoconf-colibri.zoom.us/j/00000000000?pwd=bm8gcGFzc3dvcmQgaGVyZSAK

Zoom Desktop Client Setup

For automatic call joining to work properly you'll want to set your Zoom configuration such that it defaults to join without video and with muted audio.

In settings under Video, choose:

In settings under Audio, choose:

Usage

After editing your config file the interactive menu will be presented.
The options are:

• sso
  Attempt to run the SSO login flow with the provided details, passing the resulting URL to zoom.
• test-wakeup
  Attempt to put the machine to sleep for 2 minutes.
• arm
  Arm the script to attend all the meetings scheduled for the day of the first upcoming meeting, and susepend the machine with a scheduled wakeup.
• arm-nosleep
  Arm the script to attend all the meetings scheduled for the day of the first upcoming meeting but don't suspend the machine.

Sleep & Wakeup

If the next meeting is scheduled for more than 5 minutes in to the future the machine will be put to sleep and awaken in time for the meeting.
In order for this to work your operating system has to allow RTC wakeups to happen and you to schedule them.
The operating system's Lock Screen when waking up from sleep is not a problem, everything will work in the background since we are running the binary directly instead of using UI.

RTC Wakeups on Windows

On Windows, a task is scheduled with Task Scheduler.
The task runs cmd.exe /k exit which does nothing, but is set to wake up the computer to execute it.
It is also worth checking, especially on laptops, if the currently active power plan is set to allow RTC wakeups:

• Browse to Edit power plan
  

• Choose Change advanced power settings
  

• In Sleep make sure Allow wake timers is set to Enable
  

After scheduling the task psshutdown.exe is executed to suspend the machine.

RTC Wakeups on Linux

On Linux rtcwake -m mem is used to suspend the machine to RAM for a certain amount of time.
Depending on your Linux distro this might not be available or enabled so you might have to investigate.

RTC Wakeups on macOS

On macOS pmset is used to schedule a relative wakeup.
The machine is then put to sleep with pmset sleepnow.

Updates

An update check against this repository is performed and at run-time.
If a newer version is available an update will be carried out.

Telemtry

At first run a random ID will be generated and stored in your config.json
The software will phone home to report the following telemetry data:

• Commit hash (version) you are running

To opt out of telemetry set your "telemetry_id" to "opt-out" in your config.json file.

SSO Identity Providers

This list contains some SSO login domains along with the URL you should choose.
