add users to google group django

[Brian Lee]

I have a quick question about handling email updates using Django. My organization uses a Google Group to send mass emails to those added to the email list, and I was looking to add a 'sign up' widget to the footer of the website (It's a non-buisness Google Group). Is it possible to utilize Google Group's API and Django to create a system where Django automatically adds emails to the Google Group? If so, how do you all suggest I go about implementing the feature?

Hi Brian,

A quick overview of your requirements.

There should be a signup flow that adds user email to specific Google Group. So basically you are trying to get just emails from user. And you are not going to verify emails, activate/deactivate users, add secured section to you site, except admin panel. Am I correct?

If so then I would do it creating gateway which should wrap all Google Group specific code and just put it in 'is_valid' form case, for instance:

> GroupList.add(user_email)

where GroupList mentioned gateway.

I checked Google Settings API quickstart for python by this link.

It seems to me that creating GroupList should very straightforward task.

Please consider my response as a suggestion only. It is just basic idea.

Regards,

Constantine C.
