MIU Job Search Report Automation

This repository contains a Selenium script that automates the process of logging into a website and submitting job application details. The script is scheduled to run daily using GitHub Actions.

Features

• Automates login to the specified website.
• Enters job application details for the date two days ago.
• Uses environment variables for secure credential management.
• Runs daily using GitHub Actions.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• A GitHub account

Setup Instructions

Step 1: Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/mucahitkayadan/job_search_report_automation.git
cd job_search_report_automation

Step 2: Create requirements.txt

Create a file named requirements.txt and add the following lines:

selenium~=4.21.0
webdriver-manager~=4.0.1

Step 3: Create a Python Script

Create a file named script.py and add your Selenium automation script to it. This script should use environment variables for credentials and automate the necessary steps on the website.

Step 4: Set Up GitHub Secrets

1. Navigate to your GitHub repository.
2. Go to Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions.
3. Click New repository secret and add the following secrets:
   • MIU_EMAIL: Your email address.
   • MIU_PASSWORD: Your password.

NOTE: If you are trying to run the code on your desktop, add your credentials to your local environment, or just basically set that values as text in the code. On Powershell:

setx MIU_EMAIL put_your_miu_email
setx MIU_PASSWORD put_your_miu_password

Step 5: Create GitHub Actions Workflow

Create a directory named .github/workflows in the root of your repository. Inside this directory, create a YAML file named main.yml with the following content:

name: Run Selenium Script

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - main
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 0 * * *'  # Runs daily at midnight

jobs:
  run-selenium-script:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    env:
      MIU_EMAIL: ${{ secrets.MIU_EMAIL }}
      MIU_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.MIU_PASSWORD }}

    steps:
    - name: Checkout repository
      uses: actions/checkout@v2

    - name: Set up Python
      uses: actions/setup-python@v2
      with:
        python-version: '3.x'

    - name: Install dependencies
      run: |
        python -m pip install --upgrade pip
        pip install -r requirements.txt

    - name: Install Chrome
      run: |
        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get install -y google-chrome-stable

    - name: Install ChromeDriver
      run: |
        sudo apt-get install -y unzip
        curl -sS -o chromedriver_linux64.zip https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/$(curl -sS https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/LATEST_RELEASE)/chromedriver_linux64.zip
        unzip chromedriver_linux64.zip -d /usr/local/bin/
        rm chromedriver_linux64.zip

    - name: Verify environment variables
      run: |
        echo "MIU_EMAIL: $MIU_EMAIL"
        echo "MIU_PASSWORD: $MIU_PASSWORD"

    - name: Run Selenium script
      run: |
        python script.py

Step 6: Commit and Push Changes

git add .
git commit -m "Add Selenium script and GitHub Actions workflow"
git push origin main

Step 7: Monitor Workflow

1. Go to the Actions tab of your GitHub repository.
2. Check the status of the workflow runs.
3. Review logs to ensure everything is working correctly.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you have set up a Selenium script that runs daily using GitHub Actions. This script logs into a website, enters job application details, and submits the form. The setup ensures secure handling of credentials using GitHub Secrets.
