Extras

• I have followed the git rebase oriented workflow.

• Each commit has been created with a meaningful commit message.

• Helper functions are used instead of putting everything inside views. DRY

• Only Google's provided standard libraries are used.

• URL configurations keeping extensiblity (v2, v3) in mind.

• Exception handling with appropriate status codes.

• rest/v1/calendar/init

  returns the auth_url.

  now depending on the client e.g. mobile, desktop, etc. we can open (prompt) the url in a new browser tab.

• rest/v1/calendar/redirect

  serves as a redirect URI.

  It fetches auth_code and then exchanges the code for 'access_token' and 'refresh_token' from the google' server.

• We can use any client to access the api endpoints

Important Note:

• If the status of our app is set to Production (i.e. everyone can use it)

  • Then our app needs verification from Google to use the scope (which is not possible in 48 hours)

• Currently the status of our app is set to Testing

  • A whitelisted set of users can use the scope without verfification (Which is our case)

• Hence, If you want to test this via convin.pythonanywhere.com

  • Login using this Google account (I have whitelisted this as test user)
  • Account: [email protected] , Password: TestAccount@1144

• Another option is to setting this up locally and configuring your own client_secret.json and test users.
