I have implemented this interface that allows you to control the official integration of the shopping list. It is inspired by the Bring! app and enhanced by HA automations.
Features:
You can add products from the catalog, the text field, automations, or the assistant. Also works with Google Assistant
You can sync it with the Bring list and other lists using the blueprint
You can add properties to the products, such as price, stock, store… enhancing the list’s functionality
Nice write up. I have had some success using voice to add items to my shopping list (I also sync with Bring!) but you need to pre-populate the data structure with the items you want to add (not ideal)
I also have some RFID tags near where we keep dog food, when I scan them with my phone, the dog food item is added to my list.
Super interesting, we use Bring! since long time too, this one of the only list app, my wife adopted.
We have a simple list of things we always need to check separated to the main list. I never find the right way to automate something as for us shopping was not something foreseeable. I am super interested on how this work for you? I will try your article with Google translate.
thanks for this! I’m new to both Home Assistant as well as actually automating my shopping list, so will have to try this…right now, my grocery list is currently kept in Todoist, though I kinda want to get rid of that in light of already using Habitica for task management. This gives me ideas on how I can begin separating my grocery list from my daily todos, if anything.
Hi, Clement. I have some ideas in my head to add not foreseeable products, but i think it will based on your preferences. Anyway, can you give me some examples?? By the way, please, let me know if it is ok enough by using Google Translate
Same here, I had my list on Keep but they made a change that broke the HA integration. Moved to Bring! and google then removed 3rd party. Which lead me to where I am now. Thought I would have learned my lesson with google by now :-/ they break stuff at the drop of a hat.
Also have it so when the wife or I are need a super market HA sends a notification telling us there are things on the shopping list, and provides a direct link to open said shopping list.
Although I’ve got this syncing every 15 minutes, I’ve also got a Tasker script that runs, so when wife adds anything to the list, HA will immediately sync the list.
I have updated the guide to create this lovelace cards by using also Mushroom Cards and Bar Card, in order to have main indicators in your main panel (or wherever you want), with quick access to “auto-shopping list” and “remaining items indicators”.
