To automate sending daily email reports in Python, you can use the smtplib library for sending
emails and the schedule library for scheduling the task. Additionally, you may use email and MIME
libraries for constructing and formatting the email content.

Below is a simple script to get you started. Make sure to replace the placeholder values such as
your_email@gmail.com, your_password, recipient@example.com, and Report Content with your actual
email credentials and report details.

python

Copy code

import smtplib

from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart

from email.mime.text import MIMEText

import schedule

import time

def send_email():

# Email configuration

sender_email = 'your_email@gmail.com'

sender_password = 'your_password'

recipient_email = 'recipient@example.com'

subject = 'Daily Report'

# Create message container

msg = MIMEMultipart()

msg['From'] = sender_email

msg['To'] = recipient_email

msg['Subject'] = subject
 # Email content

body = 'Report Content' # Replace with your actual report content

msg.attach(MIMEText(body, 'plain'))

# Connect to the SMTP server

with smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587) as server:

server.starttls()

server.login(sender_email, sender_password)

server.sendmail(sender_email, recipient_email, msg.as_string())

# Schedule the job to run daily at a specific time

schedule.every().day.at("08:00").do(send_email)

while True:

schedule.run_pending()

time.sleep(1)

Now, let's walk through the setup:

Install Required Libraries:

Open a terminal and install the required libraries using the following command:

bash

Copy code

pip install schedule

Update Script:

Replace the placeholder values in the script with your actual email credentials (sender_email,
sender_password, recipient_email) and customize the report content.

Allow Less Secure Apps:

If you are using Gmail, you might need to allow less secure apps to access your account. You can do this
by going to your Google Account settings and enabling "Less secure app access."

Run the Script:

Save the script with a .py extension (e.g., email_report.py) and run it using the following command:

bash

Copy code

python email_report.py

The script will run indefinitely, checking for scheduled tasks and sending the email at the specified time.

Please note that storing email credentials directly in the script might not be the most secure approach.
Consider using environment variables or a configuration file for better security. Additionally, be aware of
the potential security risks associated with allowing less secure app access.
