You need to install PyCrypto using pip or PyOpenSSL.

You can also do:

sudo pip install PyOpenSSL --upgrade

Send Google Forms to Slack

# read more about slack web hooks here: https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks

 var POST_URL = "https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR_TOKEN";

 function onSubmit(e) {
   var response = e.response.getItemResponses();

   var toType = function(obj) {
     return ({}).toString.call(obj).match(/\s([a-zA-Z]+)/)[1].toLowerCase()
   }

   // "Form Respondent: " + e.response.getRespondentEmail()

   var email = response[0].getResponse();
   var field2 = response[1].getResponse();
   var field3 = response[2].getResponse();
   var field4 = response[3].getResponse();

   var d = "*SUBMITTED FORM*\n>>>Email: " + email + "\n";

   d += "other fields: \n" + field2 + field3 + field4;

   var payload =
       { "payload": '{"text": "' + d + '"}' }

    var options =
    {
      "method" : "post",
      "payload" : payload
    };

    UrlFetchApp.fetch(POST_URL, options);

How to query on Google Big Query?

Big Query or for short BQ is a data warehousing solution that puts your data on a serverless platform with no limit on data size and processing power. It is design for this specific purpose and returns aggregated results in a fraction of a second most of the time.


In python you can use its library by installing google-cloud-bigquery:

pip install --upgrade google-cloud-bigquery

Now create a service account as stated in link below:

https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/libraries

We assume that you have done the installation and configuration process for now. To query on BQ:

from google.cloud import bigquery
 bigquery_client = bigquery.Client()
 dataset_id = 'MY_PROJECT'
 query = ("SELECT user_id FROM MY_PROJECT.users LIMIT 100")

 # API CALL
 query_job = bigquery_client.query(query)

 for row in query_job:
     print row.user_id, row['user_id']

You can send update commands like the above query too.

In Google OAUTH 2.0 in case you get a token from Google Login you can get user's information for that token by sending a simple GET request to the following URL:

https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo?alt=json&access_token=YOUR_GOOGLE_TOKEN

The response differs based on the given scope on the first login step. Mine was set to the below:

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.me https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email

#google #login_with_google #oauth #scope #userinfo #oauth2

How 3rd Party Logins work like Facebook, Google, etc?

In order to understand this concept you need to read a little bit about OAuth 2.0 flow. The flow that frontiers use in order to get access token is called Implicit Flow in this scenario in one go you get an access token and you don't need to send your client secret as everything in web is plain and end users can inspect it.

For example for Google authentication, you use the below link with resopnse_type of token NOT code (code is a 2-step authentication flow):

- https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth?client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=https://example.com/callback. html&response_type=token&scope=openid+profile+email&prompt=select_account

But there are lot more going on in the background. How a modal is opened? Or when modal get the token how it sends access token to the main window (parent window)? How do you close the opened modal after successful authorization?

These are all critical questions that any frontier programmer needs to know.

One the simplest forms of opening a popup is:

window.popUpObj = window.open(url, '_blank')

We store the popup object in window.popUpObj in order to be able to close it in the future. As we just said in google link above we have a parameter called redirect_uri, here you put a link to where you need to get the parameters from your 3rd party. Here we have set it to:

- https://example.com/callback.html

Inside of that HTML you get the parameters. Google sends data in a hash section of the URL so in callback.html we get the hash like below and then send it to the parent window using window.opener:

<script>
     window.opener.loginCallback(window.location.hash);
 </script>

Here get the hash part using window.location.hash and pass it to parent window function loginCallback. This function is defined in your main js file like below:

window.loginCallback = function(args) {
     console.log('Login callback has been called, token: ', args);
     window.popUpObj.close();
 }

We get the hash part as args and then close the child window using window.popUpObj.close(). This is the object we have recently stored to refer later.
