To download the **latest** release, click **_[here](https://github.com/pixincreate/Automeet/releases/latest)_**.  

#### Click on the Thumbnail above to watch the **Quick-Start Guide**.



### Introduction:

**Automeet** is all about automating the process of logging **in** and **out** when attending a Meeting on Google Meet platform with a single run.



**Code by:** Pavana Narayana Bhat



### PreRequisites:

- **Windows** Operating system.

- Brave / Chrome (v**90.0**).

- A Google **Account**.

- **Stable Internet** connection.

- It is RECOMMENDED to **TURN ON** **LESS SECURE APP ACCESS** in **Security Settings** which comes under **Google Settings** in order to avoid being detected and blocked on trying more than **thrice**(3 times).



### Usage:

- Once the **PreRequisites** is satisfied, **Download** the executable from the *[releases section](https://github.com/pixincreate/Automeet/releases/latest)*.

- Run the **Automeet.exe**.

- Enter your **Google Account Login Credentials** that you use to join your meet meetings. **Automeet** takes care of the rest.



### Things to keep in mind:

- Please make sure that the **Google Meet meetings are scheduled on your Google Calendar** and the timings **doesnot** overlap with each other(like 2 meetings at the same time or whatever).

- Do note that the **Password** that you enter will show you nothing.

- **If you ever get _"Couldn't sign in you in, and blah blah blah"_, Try clearing the _temp_ directory by pressing "WINDOWS_BUTTON + R" and type "%temp%" and select all by pressing "Ctrl + A", click "SHIFT+DELETE", and "OK"** or if you try to login **3**+ times in a day, Google have a habit of **Block**ing you from logging in for **24**+ hours.(_You know, Just Google things! If anything goes against Google's will, Block!!!_).

- Blame/Curse Google every single day, every single minute.



### Found any bugs?

Incase if you find any bugs, please raise an *[Issue Ticket](https://github.com/pixincreate/Automeet/issues/new/choose)* under the *[Issues Tab](https://github.com/pixincreate/Automeet/issues)* in this Repository. Will look into it, then solve the issue if it exist ASAP.



**Note:**  A **Warning** exists the .py file. To learn more about the warning, click *[**here**](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63958561/how-to-merge-chromedriver-exe-with-a-python-script-that-runs-on-selenium-webdriv/63959432#63959432)*.



### FAQ:

*Q*: **Why _Automeet_ is SLOW at Start up**?  

*A*: It is a standalone executable file that contains all the required files to run the **Automeet**. As the executable creates a temporary folder to extract the files that are requierd by the **Automeet** to run during the Start up, it takes around `2 - 5` seconds at Max!



*Q*: **How EXECUTABLES are made**?  

*A*: `.exe` has been created using *[pyinstaller](https://pypi.org/project/pyinstaller/)*.

  

*Q*: **How login process works**?**any references**?  

*A*: Login works by redirecting Google Login to stackoverflow page using "DN" user-agent which is outdated and I believe that Google doesn't block that.  Visit below given links for reference:

- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67150869/selenium-google-login-blocked-in-automation-self-answered-bypassed-the-google

- https://github.com/tovi-developer/gmail-login-selenium

- https://stackoverflow.com/a/64514543/12320089

- https://pypi.org/project/selenium-stealth/

- https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/mtvbz1/selenium_google_login_blocked_in_automation/ (same as stackoverflow, but with public opinion.)

  

   

### Feature updates(will be added - If Online meetings continues to be conducted everywhere):

- Auto attendance (for students) that puts Present Sir / Mam on behalf of you.

- Make the UI interactable by replacing CLI with GUI.

- Add option for placing Meet links along with the Calendar scheduled links in meet homepage with the help of GUI.(Major update)
