✉️ Email Auto-ReplAI 🤖

Continuous Integration Docker Image License: MIT

Email Auto-ReplAI ✉️🤖 is a Python tool that uses AI to automate drafting responses to unread Gmail messages, streamlining email management tasks. It creates drafts for messages specifically addressed to the user, disregarding messages where the user is only CCed or BCCed. Additionally, the application does not generate drafts for messages from or reply-to a noreply or donotreply address and messages with a List-Unsubscribe header. The application can use either a local AI model or the OpenAI API based on your configuration.

📖 Table of Contents

🐳 Running with Docker

To get started, you first need to pull the Docker image from the GitHub Container Registry. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:

docker pull ghcr.io/rahb-realtors-association/email-autodrafts:latest

You need to provide your OpenAI API key and specify whether you want to use a local AI model or the OpenAI API. You also need to bind mount your settings.json file into the Docker container.

You can do this by running the following command:

docker run -e OPENAI_API_KEY=<your_openai_api_key> -v /path/to/your/settings.json:/app/settings.json -v /path/to/your/credentials.json:/app/credentials.json -v /path/to/your/tocken.pickle:/app/token.pickle ghcr.io/rahb-realtors-association/email-autodrafts:latest

Please replace <your_openai_api_key> with your actual OpenAI API key, /path/to/your/settings.json with the actual path to your settings.json file on your host system, and the same for credentials.json and token.pickle.

🛠️ Manual Setup

  1. Clone this repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/RAHB-REALTORS-Association/email-autodrafts.git
cd email-autodrafts
  1. Install the required Python packages by running the following command in your terminal:
pip install -r requirements.txt
  1. Set up a project in the Google API Console, enable the Gmail API, and download the credentials.json file. For detailed instructions, please refer to the Google API Python Client's User Guide.
  2. Place the credentials.json file in the same directory as your Python script.
  3. Adjust the settings in settings.json to match your setup. You can specify the AI model and the Gmail scopes.
  4. Set the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable to your OpenAI API key.
  5. Set the USE_LOCAL environment variable to true if you want to use a local AI model, or false (or leave it unset) if you want to use the OpenAI API.
  6. Run the script by executing the following command in your terminal:
python main.py

You can also add the --local flag to use the local AI model, regardless of the USE_LOCAL environment variable:

python main.py --local

❓ How it works

The script performs the following steps in a loop:

  1. Connects to Gmail using OAuth 2.0. 🔒
  2. Fetches unread emails. 📥
  3. Filters emails based on the specified rules (directly addressed to user, no List-Unsubscribe header, and not from a noreply/donotreply address). 🧹
  4. Parses the filtered email content. 📝
  5. Sends the email content to either a local AI model or the OpenAI API, based on your configuration, to generate a response. 📤💬
  6. Creates a draft in Gmail with the generated response. 📝✉️

The script sleeps for an hour between each loop.

🧾 Logging

The script logs information and error messages to a file named app.log. This can be used to monitor the script's operation and troubleshoot any issues.

📝 Note

This script is intended to be run locally on a user's machine. The user must be able to open a web browser on the machine to authorize the script with their Google account.
