Adding bible passage readings for future sermons

Add rows to src/resources/data/passages.csv making sure that the dates are in YYYY-MM-DD format. If you're using Excel, select the date column, Format > Cells and select the YYYY-MM-DD format.

Running and testing locally:

  • Install dependencies by running pip install -r src/requirements.txt
  • Add these environment variables:
    • LAMBDA_TASK_ROOT - the file path of the src/ directory
    • PYTHONPATH - the file path of the src/ directory
  • Make the file, src/secrets.py, containing API keys and the like. Copy across the content from src/secrets.py.template and either get your own keys or email me

TODO:

  • [] Add tests
  • [] Migrate bible passage database from static csv file to Google Sheets
  • [] Investigate licencing for using NIV bible
  • [] Improve handling of errors in general
  • [] Add instructions for forking and using for other churches, including deployment etc.
