By default, all engineering staff will be CC’d on build notifications and approvals. However, for those who prefer a more human-readable format for filter management than XML, there is a Python project called gmail-yaml-filters that converts YAML filter specification to XML for import into Gmail. This project uses Python 3.6, so a Docker wrapper project is provided for you here: https://github.com/jjtroberts/gmail-filters.
Usage
- Clone or fork https://github.com/jjtroberts/gmail-filters
- Modify or create your own
filters.yaml - Run
make build - Run
make run - XML output will be saved to
filters.xml - Navigate to Gmail filters
- Click the “Import filters” link
- Open the XML file containing the snippets, then click “Open file”
- Click the “Create filters” button to upload to create the filters.
