Please note that this implementation requires your Google Sheet to be public and does not use recommended authentication methods. Make sure your sheet does not contain sensitive data.\n\n### Table Structure\n\nThe Google Sheet should have the following table structure:\n\n| ID  | Description  |       Date     | Advance Notice Days |    Recipients    | Email Status |\n|-----|--------------|----------------|---------------------|------------------|--------------|\n|  1  | Renew licence|  2024-08-30    |          7          | test@example.com |      No      |\n\n### Usage\n\n1. **Google Sheet Setup**: Create a Google Sheet with the specified table structure. Populate the sheet with your data, including the description, date, advance notice days, recipients, and email status.\n\n2. **Advance Notice Days**: The \"Advance Notice Days\" column lets you specify how many days in advance you want to receive an email reminder by entering comma-separated values. For instance, if you enter \"7,1\", you will receive email reminders 7 days and 1 day before the specified date.\n\n3. **Recipients**: Enter the email addresses of the recipients in the \"Recipients\" column. Separate multiple email addresses with commas.\n\n4. **Email Status**: Use the \"Email Status\" column to track whether an email reminder has been sent. Set it to \"Not Sent\" initially.\n\n5. **Run the Script**: Run the provided Python script to read data from the Google Sheet, calculate the dates for reminders, and send email notifications.\n\n6. **Automate with a Scheduler**: You can automate the process of sending reminders by setting up a scheduler to run the Python script at specified intervals.\n    - **Unix-based Systems (Using `cron`)**: Open your terminal, type `crontab -e`, and add a new line specifying the schedule and command to run your Python script.\n    - **Windows (Using Task Scheduler)**: Open Task Scheduler, create a new basic task, specify the trigger and action to run your Python script.\n\n7. **Email Reminder**: Once the script is set up and running, you will receive email reminders based on the specified advance notice days.\n\n### Disclaimer\n\nThis implementation does not use recommended authentication methods and relies on the Google Sheet being public. Ensure that your Google Sheet does not contain sensitive data before using this method.\n\n### Notes\n\nThis implementation operates similarly to setting reminders on a calendar, but instead of receiving notifications, you will receive email reminders.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdevonwintz%2Fgoogle-sheet-email-reminder","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdevonwintz%2Fgoogle-sheet-email-reminder","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdevonwintz%2Fgoogle-sheet-email-reminder/lists"}
