LG ThinQ Devices integration for HomeAssistant

A Homeassistant custom component to monitor LG Washer, Dryer, DishWasher and Refrigerators using ThinQ API based on WideQ project.

Important Version note:

From version 0.3.x component name changed from smartthinq_washer to smartthinq_sensors If you are upgrading to version 0.3.x from previous version, you must remove component configuration and uninstall component from Home Assistant before upgrade.
From version 0.5.x devices state labels are loaded from "language pack" and shown in the language related to your account. This change should solve all case of "unknown state" warning, due to the big change some sensors may not work as expected. Please open an issue with all possible details to help me to fix possible new issues introduced.

Important: The component will not work if you have logged into the ThinQ application and registered your devices using a social network account (Google, Facebook or Amazon). In order to use the component you need to create a new independent LG account and make sure you log into the ThinQ app and associate your devices with it. If during configuration you receive the message "No SmartThinQ devices found", probably your devices are still associated with the social network account. To solve the problem perform the following step:

remove your devices from the ThinQ app
logout from the app and login again with the independent LG account
reconnect the devices in the app

Important 2: If you receive an "Invalid Credential" error during component configuration/startup, check in the LG mobile app if is requested to accept new Term Of Service.

Note: some device status may not be correctly detected, this depends on the model. I'm working to map all possible status developing the component in a way to allow to configure model option in the simplest possible way and provide update using Pull Requests. I will provide a guide on how update this information.

Installation

You can install this component in two ways: via HACS or manually.

Option A: Installing via HACS

If you have HACS, just go in the Integration Tab and search the "SmartThinQ LGE Sensors" component to install it.

Option B: Manually installation (custom_component)

Prerequisite: SSH into your server. Home Assistant Add-on: SSH server

Clone the git master branch.
git clone https://github.com/ollo69/ha-smartthinq-sensors.git
If missing, create a custom_components directory where your configuration.yaml file resides. This is usually in the config directory of homeassistant.
mkdir ~/.homeassistant/config/custom_components
Copy the smartthinq_sensors directory within the custom_components directory of your homeassistant installation from step 2.
cp -R ha-smartthinq-sensors/custom_components/smartthinq_sensors/ ~/.homeassistant/config/custom_components

(Optional) Delete the git repo.
rm -R ha-smartthinq-sensors/

After a correct installation, your configuration directory should look like the following.

    └── ...
    └── configuration.yaml
    └── secrects.yaml
    └── custom_components
        └── smartthinq_sensors
            └── __init__.py
            └── config_flow.py
            └── const.py
            └── ...

Reboot HomeAssistant

Component configuration

Once the component has been installed, you need to configure it in order to make it work. There are two ways of doing so:

Using the web interface (Lovelace) [recommended]
Manually editing the configuration.yaml file

Option A: Configuration using the web UI [recommended]

Simply add a new "integration" and look for "SmartThinQ LGE Sensors" among the proposed ones and follow setup worflow.

Important: use your country and language code: SmartThinQ accounts are associated with a specific locale, so be sure to use the country and language you originally created your account with. Reference for valid code:

Country code: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code
Language code: ISO 639-1 code

Option B: Configuration via editing configuration.yaml [deprecated - not possible from v0.5.4]

Follow these steps only if the previous configuration method did not work for you.
Note: with this configuration the integration will use APIv1 that cannot connect to new LG devices. This configuration option is deprecated and is not possible starting from version 0.5.4

Enable the component by editing the configuration.yaml file (within the config directory as well). Edit it by adding the following lines:

smartthinq_sensors:
  token: my_smartthinq_token
  region: my_smartthinq_region #(ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, e.g. US)
  language: my_smartthinq_language #(ISO-639-1, e.g. en)

Reboot HomeAssistant

If you like the component, why don't you support me by buying me a coffee? It would certainly motivate me to further improve this work.
