Google Apps User Provisioning Tool

This is a ruby app that acts as a CLI for your Google Apps domain.

The app uses the Google Apps provisioning API Ruby client found here: http://code.google.com/p/gdatav2rubyclientlib/

This app also makes use of the Highline gem for more advanced control over user input. More info on that here: http://highline.rubyforge.org/

Currently the app can manage user accounts and groups within the domains in your Google Apps account. The app can also create a user, set up aliases and add the new user to groups in one workflow.

USAGE NOTES:

1. Tested working on a Mac, using both system ruby (1.8.7) and 2.0.0 installed via RVM. Code is untested on Linux, but I see no reason why it shouldn't work. I've never tested it on Windows and I don't plan to. Let me know if you do.

2. You'll need the Ruby 'Highline' gem. $: gem install highline

3. I also had to install the curl-ca-bundle in order for SSL to function. Additionally, I had to point the app at the path to the cert store for it to be recognized. I installed the bundle via Macports (sudo port install curl-ca-bundle), but you can grab it via homebrew or manually, I'm sure. Once installed, make sure line 33 of gappsprovisioning/connection.rb points to the correct path to the cert store. It's currently set for the default install path using Macports. If you'd like to try to get it up and running by tweaking environment variables, have a look at this link: http://mentalized.net/journal/2012/08/10/ssl_certificate_woes_with_ruby_19_and_os_x/

4. When creating a user account, the user is assigned a default password. This password is set on line 63 of lib/usermanagement.rb. You can set it to whatever you'd like.

CHANGELOG

4/10/13: Complete User Setup has been implemented!
The main menu now has an option for Complete User Setup. This option allows you to create a new user account, add email aliases to it and add the user to any groups in the domain in a single workflow. Last to do is set up sending of welcome emails to the new user. Maybe later in the week.

4/8/13: I CAN HAS COMMITS! Group management is up and working. App has the ability to list groups, get group info, create and delete groups as well as add and remove users. All functionality is tested working but could probably use some more cleanup/error-checking here and there.

3/25/13: I've started on the group management. It's not working yet.
