TooGoodToGo items stock as a sensor in Home Assistant

This aim to show the stock of one or multiple TooGoodToGo item using the tgtg-python library. Sensor data can be used afterward to generate notifications, history graphs, ... share your best examples in the Discussion tab!

Features

• Fetch each item stock defined
• Authenticate using tokens
• Retrieve all favorites instead of a manual list of item_id if no item: are defined
• Retrieve additional information as attributes, if available:
  • Item ID
  • TooGoodToGo price and original value
  • Pick-up start and end
  • Sold-out date

Installation

Two steps are required:

1. Get access tokens, either manually or via Docker
2. Install the integration

1. Get access tokens

First you'll need to get access tokens for this integration to work.

This is to be executed outside of Home Assistant, i.e. on your local machine.

1a. Manually

1. Install required packages.
   • Python >=3.8
   • tgtg-python library: In a command line, type pip install tgtg>=0.11.0 or pip install --upgrade tgtg if you already have it.
2. Run the tgtg_get_tokens script to get access and refresh token. Save these for later.

1b. Docker

This is work in progress.

You only need Docker installed. There is no need to clone the repo because Docker can build from an external URL.

docker build https://github.com/Chouffy/home_assistant_tgtg.git#main --tag "homeassistant_tgtg_tokens:latest"
docker run --rm -it homeassistant_tgtg_tokens

2. Installation via HACS

1. Search for TooGoodToGo in the Integration tab of HACS
2. Click Install
3. Copy over the tokens in /config/configuration.yaml retrieved in 1.
4. Restart the Home Assistant server
   • ⚠ Each time you add/remove a favorite in the TGTG app, restart your Home Assistant. Favorites are only updated at boot!

Configuration option

sensor:
  - platform: tgtg

    # Optional: email so you know which account is used
    email: "Your TGTG mail"

    # Mandatory: tokens for authentication - see the tgtg_get_tokens.py script
    access_token: "abc123"
    refresh_token: "abc123"
    user_id: "123456"
    cookie: "datadome=..."

    # Optional: Refresh the stock every 15 minutes
    scan_interval: 900

    # Optional, use defined items ID instead to get your favorites
    item:
      # item_id 1
      - 1234
      # item_id 2
      - 5678

    # Optional: Amount of favourites to retrieve (default: 20)
    page_size: 20

    # Optional: user agent - by default, the latest one is retrieved from the Google Play store
    #user_agent: "TGTG/22.2.1 Dalvik/2.1.0 (Linux; U; Android 9; SM-G955F Build/PPR1.180610.011)"

access_token, refresh_token, user_id and cookie can be retrieved using the tgtg_get_tokens script!

How to get item_id

Check the tgtg_get_favorites_item_id script!

1. Set up email/password
2. Run it
3. Copy the full output in the configuration.yaml for the item section

Q&A

• It was working before, but now all TooGoodToGo sensors are "not available"
  • Try to update your tokens using the script and restart Home Assistant
• I have a sensor that shows now as unavailable when there's no stock
  • Try add it manually using Item ID - See this issue
• The tgtg integration won't start, all my sensors are unavailable and I have a list of manually defined items ID
  • Double-check if all items ID defined manually are correct. The integration don't support unknown or incorrect item ID - see issue.
• I have a large favourite list and not all of the items are appearing in home assistant
  • Increase the page_size in your configuration.yaml
