Python SDK for the Gmail REST API
gmail-sdk
Python SDK for the Gmail REST API. Uses httpx directly — no google-api-python-client.
Install
pip install ldraney-gmail-sdk
Quick Start
from gmail_sdk import GmailClient
# Load token from ~/secrets/google-oauth/gmail-draneylucas.json
client = GmailClient(account="draneylucas")
print(client.get_profile())
# List unread messages
messages = client.list_messages(query="is:unread", max_results=5)
# Send an email
client.send_message(to="someone@example.com", subject="Hello", body="Hi there!")
# Reply to a message
client.reply(message_id="abc123", body="Thanks!")
# Send an HTML email
client.send_message(
to="someone@example.com",
subject="Hello",
body="Plain text fallback",
html_body="<h1>Hello!</h1><p>This is <b>HTML</b>.</p>",
)
# Reply-all, mark as read/unread
client.reply_all(message_id="abc123", body="Thanks everyone!")
client.mark_as_read(message_id="abc123")
client.mark_as_unread(message_id="abc123")
# List mailbox changes since a history ID (for incremental sync)
profile = client.get_profile()
changes = client.list_history(start_history_id=profile["historyId"])
First-Time Setup
Run the OAuth flow to authorize an account:
from gmail_sdk import GmailClient
client = GmailClient.authorize(account="draneylucas")
print(client.get_profile())
This opens a browser for Google sign-in and saves the token for future use.
Multi-Account
personal = GmailClient(account="draneylucas")
work = GmailClient(account="lucastoddraney")
dev = GmailClient(account="devopsphilosopher")
