Python - Send HTML Table as email body.



SMTPLIB

A python base package to send emails.


Within this post, we will cover.

  • How to use prettytable library to create tabular data in console.
  • How to convert prettytable tabular data output in HTML format
  • How we can send HTML email using Python.
  • How can we integrate mime with email.
  • Code snippet to send HTML email along with Texr
  • How to send email as MultiPart message content ( Text + HTML) 

We will start with the use case:

  • I have a html table and and a Link that must be within the same email body and not as an attachment.
  • So for now, i am using PreetyTable to provide output of my table in HTML format.

 

Intended Table.


FirstnameLastnameAge
JillSmith50
EveJackson94
JohnDoe80


How to create Tabular data in CLI using prettytable.


mytable.py
from prettytable import PrettyTable
    
tabular_fields = ["Firstname", "Lastname", "Age"]
tabular_table = PrettyTable()
tabular_table.field_names = tabular_fields 
tabular_table.add_row(["Jill","Smith", 50])
tabular_table.add_row(["Eve","Jackson", 94])
tabular_table.add_row(["John", "Doe", 80])

>>> print(tabular_table)
+-----------+----------+-----+
| Firstname | Lastname | Age |
+-----------+----------+-----+
|    Jill   |  Smith   |  50 |
|    Eve    | Jackson  |  94 |
|    John   |   Doe    |  80 |
+-----------+----------+-----+

To print the data as an HTML output use the below code snippet


mytable.py
from prettytable import PrettyTable
    
tabular_fields = ["Firstname", "Lastname", "Age"]
tabular_table = PrettyTable()
tabular_table.field_names = tabular_fields 
tabular_table.add_row(["Jill","Smith", 50])
tabular_table.add_row(["Eve","Jackson", 94])
tabular_table.add_row(["John", "Doe", 80])

>>> print(tabular_table.get_html_string())

<table>
    <tr>
        <th>Firstname</th>
        <th>Lastname</th>
        <th>Age</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>Jill</td>
        <td>Smith</td>
        <td>50</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>Eve</td>
        <td>Jackson</td>
        <td>94</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>John</td>
        <td>Doe</td>
        <td>80</td>
    </tr>
</table>
Now as we already know how to create html output for a specific table using prettytable, we will use the same html output within our email body.


  • Here is the code.

import smtplib
from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
from email.mime.text import MIMEText
def trigger_email():
    my_message = tabular_table.get_html_string()
    text = "Hi!\nHow are you?\nHere is the link you wanted:\nhttp://www.python.org"

    html = """\
    <html>
        <head>
        <style>
            table, th, td {
                border: 1px solid black;
                border-collapse: collapse;
            }
            th, td {
                padding: 5px;
                text-align: left;    
            }    
        </style>
        </head>
    <body>
    <p>Customer Inventory!<br>
       Here are the details?<br>
       Link to register. <a href="http://www.python.org">link</a> you wanted.<br>
       %s
    </p>
    </body>
    </html>
    """ % (my_message)

    part1 = MIMEText(text, 'plain')
    part2 = MIMEText(html, 'html')
    sendFrom = 'Purchase Update <admin@cyberkeeda.com>'
    sendTo = 'customer@cyberkeeda.com'
    # Create the root message and fill in the from, to, and subject headers
    msg = MIMEMultipart('alternative')
    msg['Subject'] = 'Purchase details Status'
    msg['From'] = strFrom
    msg['To'] = strTo
    msg.attach(part1)
    msg.attach(part2)
    
    smtp = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.cyberkeeda.com')
    smtp.sendmail(strFrom, strTo, msg.as_string())
    smtp.quit()
So modify the above with your requirement.

Python : Selenium and Chromedriver to take webpage screenshot and send it via email.




Browser Automation using Python


Within this post, we will cover.

  • Use of selenium and chromedriver to take screenshot of most recent webpage status.
  • Will leverage the basic preinstalled libraries to send email.
  • Will know, how we can send an image as a part of email body not as an attachment.
  • Will use the headless mode option of chromdriver, that's is the entire operation will run in background no GUI chrome events will be observed.

We will start with the use case:

  • if you have a requirement to check the current status of a webpage multiple times within a day/hour.
  • If you have multiple of webpages to look into periodically without opening any of it, check status of directly from your inbox only.
We will use a python script here and perform the below operations sequentially.
  1. Take screenshot of webpage using Python selenium library and google chrome webdriver and save it in our folder by name screenshot.png
  2. Use Python base library email and use it's multipart function to draft image as an email body.
  3. Use Python base library to send email using SMTP server.
Steps:
  • Download mandatory requirements.
    • Install selenium library from PIP
C:\Users\cyberkeeda> pip install selenium
First confirm which chrome browser you have on your system, for this open Chrome Browser --> Click on 3 dots at the top right corner of chrome --> Help
--> About Chrome Chrome --> You will get google chrome version.
  • Create an new directory and place your above chrome webdriver into it.
  • Note your organizations SMTP server URL/IP.
  • Create a new Python file and paste the below script lines within it.
  • Paste and save your python script and replace the below lines with yours.
    • driverPath  : Replace it with the path you have kept your downloaded chromedriver 
    • chrome_options.add_argument('window-size=1920,1080')  : Replace it with resolution what you want for the screenshot.
      • 720p = 1280 x 720 - is usually known as HD or "HD Ready" resolution
      • 1080p = 1920 x 1080 - is usually known as FHD or "Full HD" resolution
      • 1440p = 2560 x 1440 - is commonly known as QHD or Quad HD resolution
    • driver.get('https://www.mohfw.gov.in/'): Replace it your URL.
    • sendFrom : Replace it your sender's email address.
    • sentTo: Replace it your recipient email address. ( You can use same email for sendFrom and sendTo)
    • smtp = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.cyberkeeda.com') : Replace it your own smtp server or IP.
