Home Assistant: LG SmartThinQ Component

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 under custom_components and name it smartthinq. 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 called wideq_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.

Dishwasher Visualization Example

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.

Dishwasher Lovelace card

Lovelace configuration is below. Replace [ID] with the entity ID from your dishwasher. Place the dishwasher background image in your Home Assistant local directory.
