Protonmail inbox cleaner

protonmail_archiver.js

/* Lyndsy's Protonmail mass archiver
 *
 * This is a simple script that marks all emails in a folder as
 * read and archives them.
 *
 * I wrote it to work against the Protonmail Beta interface:
 *   https://beta.protonmail.com
 *
 * Usage:
 *  - Navigate to your inbox (or another folder, presumably)
 *  - Open your browser's developer tools' Javascript console
 *  - Paste in this script
 *  - Go get a cup of coffee; or maybe just go to bed if you have
 *    as many unread emails as I did :)

let markAsRead = function() { $('a.pm-group-button')[0].click() };
let selectAll = function() { $("#selectAll").click() };
let archive = function() { $('button[data-action=archive]').click() };

function markAsReadAndArchive() {
  selectAll();
  setTimeout(markAsRead, 1000);
  setTimeout(archive, 3000);
}

setInterval(markAsReadAndArchive, 10000);

I'm unfortunately getting error messages trying to run this with chromium. Thanks for making it though.

EDIT: Removed code in this comment, forked and updated the scripts here: https://gist.github.com/apazzy/33af2c32e066ae8e6c0a9c224ebdf72b

@apazzy Thank you!

Sorry for the very late reply; I no longer regularly use GitHub. My employer uses Gitlab for their projects, and I've migrated my active stuff to Sourcehut.
