A Home Assistant component for controlling/monitoring LG devices (currently HVAC & Dishwasher) via their SmartThinQ platform, based on WideQ. The current version of the component requires Home Assistant 0.96 or later.
You can install this component with HACS.
Add the "custom repository" sampsyo/hass-smartthinq
as an integration.
You can also install it manually:
-
Clone this repository into your
~/.homeassistant
directory undercustom_components
and name itsmartthinq
. For example, you might do something like this:$ cd ~/.homeassistant $ mkdir custom_components $ cd custom_components $ git clone https://github.com/sampsyo/hass-smartthinq.git smartthinq
-
Navigate to the WideQ directory. You can either use the copy installed by Home Assistant, or clone it separately by typing something like:
$ git clone https://github.com/sampsyo/wideq.git $ cd wideq
Authenticate with the SmartThinQ service to get a refresh token by running the WideQ example script. (Eventually, I would like to add a feature to the Home Assistant component that can let you log in through a UI, but I haven't gotten there yet.) Run this in the
wideq
directory:$ python3 example.py -c US -l en-US
For the
-c
and-l
parameters, use your country and language code: SmartThinQ accounts are associated with a specific locale, so be sure to use the country you originally created your account with. The script will ask you to open a browser, log in, and then paste the URL you're redirected to. It will then write a JSON file calledwideq_state.json
.Look inside this file for a key called
"refresh_token"
and copy the value. -
Add a stanza to your Home Assistant
configuration.yaml
like this:smartthinq: token: [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] region: US language: en-US
Use your refresh token and country & language codes. If region and language are not provided, then 'US' and 'en-US' are default. Start up Home Assistant and hope for the best.
Dishwashers will be automatically added as a new sensor.lg_dishwasher.[ID]
entity with various useful attributes. See the below example for how this can
be used in the Lovelace UI, which uses the built-in picture-elements card, the
circle custom card, the
entity attributes
card and card
mod.
Lovelace configuration is below. Replace [ID]
with the entity ID
from your dishwasher. Place the dishwasher background image
in your Home Assistant local
directory.
