Bring Shopping List

I was totally answering the wrong question wasnt i!

sooo, If I wanted to download images that I have associated with different products, it’s easier for the wife if there is an image, how or what would I need to add?
FYI, I managed to convert my mum (mom) into using Bring! still working on the wife

Happy to be proven wrong, but i dont think the todo entity supports images.

The developer docs only give these attributes for a todo item:

• Uid
• Summary
• Status
• Due
• Description

well that will stop me from doing what I wanted :slight_smile:

I noticed that 2024.2.x introduces an official Bring integration.
No idea if it works similar to this, or totally different!

If its as good or better, im happy to depreciate mine and move to the official one. If its different and users want me to keep maintaining, then thats OK too!

not sure, was going to try it later

it seems to work the same, slightly different naming convention though

I’ve installed the new bring integration and any items added in the official app are imported into the HA to do list in German.

Anyone else having the same issue? Sounds like it’s the same as what happened before.

Yes same issue :confused:
It was ok when i first checked it

I had this issue with early versions of my custom component. Looks like the maintainer of the integration will need to do something similar.

Hi all o/

I am one of the developers of the Bring integration (though most of the development was done by @miaucl. It’s nice to see that you like it. If you have questions i’m happy to answer them.

About localization, we were working on it the last weeks and we already have a working version of the integration that addresses the localization problem with the Bring API and we hope to be able to submit and have it accepted for the next HA Release.

By the way, the default locale is actually de-CH, so the Bring API is not in German, it is in Schwytzerdütsch! :smiley:

We were also working on some other features, one that already got accepted is support for recent items in Home Assistant. You will see items that are shown in Bring! as recent items in Home Assistant in the completed section as checked off and crossed out items.

Another feature we are working on is a Home Assistant service for sending Brings built-in mobile push notifications to members of shared shopping lists. You will be able to use Bring notifications in automations.

And one last thing, as you know there are some small differences between the Bring mobile Apps and the web app, notably that you can’t have duplicate items (same name but different specifications) in the web App but in the mobile app you can. I was able to reverse engineer the Bring android app (with a man-in-the-middle attack if someone wants to know) and we can now replicate the behaviour of the mobile app. But that’s something for a future release.

I have set up a beta version that already integrates some of the upcoming features. If anyone wants to help with beta testing, just get in touch with me by sending me a DM here or contacting me on discord. Help is always welcome.

@sh00t2kill and sorry for kinda deprecating your work :see_no_evil:

Small update, the localization update has been accepted in the meantime and should be already in the next monthly release.

I would love to have the nice icon /grid view of the mobile app also in HA. Is this potentially part of the integration or would this need to be done as a separate frontend card?
Also Auto-suggest items? (type 3 letters and get a list of matching /previous items)

that would all be new features for the todo list implementation in Home Assistant and cannot be done in integrations. If Home Assistant would add new features to todo lists like images for todo list entries we could add support for that. Also providing data (catalog items and custom bring items) for auto-suggestions would be doable, but is also currently not supported by Home Assistants to-do list implementation. But todo lists are pretty new in Home Assistant, so maybe there will come more in future releases. I mean, todo descriptions and due dates was also just added in the first or second iteration of the todo lists.
