新 Python Gmail API - 仅检索昨天的邮件

Question

我一直在为新的 Python Gmail API 更新一些脚本。但是，我对如何更新以下内容感到困惑，以便我只检索昨天的消息。谁能告诉我怎么做？

我目前能看到的唯一方法是遍历所有消息，只解析那些具有正确时间范围内的时期的消息。但是，如果我有 1000 条消息，那似乎效率很低。必须有更有效的方法来做到这一点。

您可以将查询传递给 messages.list 方法来搜索某个日期范围内的邮件。您实际上可以使用任何 query supported by Gmail's advanced search.

您这样做，只会 return 条消息。

message = service.users().messages().list(userId='me').execute()

但可以通过传递 q 关键字参数和指定 before: 和 after: 关键字的查询来搜索昨天发送的消息。

from datetime import date, timedelta

today = date.today()
yesterday = today - timedelta(1)

# do your setup...

user_id = 'user email address'

# Dates have to formatted in YYYY/MM/DD format for gmail
query = "before: {0} after: {1}".format(today.strftime('%Y/%m/%d'),
                                        yesterday.strftime('%Y/%m/%d'))

response = service.users().messages().list(userId=user_id,
                                           q=query).execute()
# Process the response for messages...

您也可以针对他们的 GMail messages.list reference page 进行尝试。
