How to configure Gmail in centos7 to send notifications to specific email id s

Answer 1

Hi@Shashl,

You can use python script in your CentOS system to set email notification. You can use the SMTP module in your script.

# send mail
import smtplib,getpass
sender='abc@gmail.com'
receiver=['xyz@gmail.com','zzz@gmail.com']
password='xxxxx'
smtpserver=smtplib.SMTP("smtp.gmail.com",587)
smtpserver.ehlo()
smtpserver.starttls()
smtpserver.ehlo
smtpserver.login(sender,password)
msg='Subject:Demo\nThis is a demo'
smtpserver.sendmail(sender,receiver,msg)
print('Sent')
smtpserver.close()

I want to trigger email notification through shell script.

For example : If I am running the script to get version of an application like java, docker, jenkins then script has to trigger an email to mentioned mail id's with the versions.

Hi@shashl,

You can do that. Create a simple shell script that will call the python script. So whenever you will run the shell script, it will run the required command and send an email.
