GAPI Playground in python

Initialize the GAPI Client and Authenticate

    client_id = 'client_id.json'
    # List the scopes for OAuth2.0 authorization
    scopes = [
        'https://mail.google.com/',
        'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly',
    ]

    # Initialize API Client
    api_client = GoogleAPIClient(client_id, scopes)

    # Authenticate with local server
    api_client.authenticate({
        'host': 'localhost',
        'port': 9091,
    })

    # Or
    # Authenticate with terminal
    api_client.authenticate()

Prepare the Gmail service

    gmail_service = api_client.prepare_service(GoogleAPIClient.SERVICE_GMAIL)

Search for Gmail Messages

    messages = service.list_messages_matching_query(
        user_id='me',
        query='from:[e-mail]',
        limit=5,
    )

Get MIME message by Id

    for m in messages:
        email = service.get_mime_message('me', m['id'])
