Bring! Smart-Home-Integration, kostenlos und Open Source

Unofficial connector: your Bring! shopping lists on the dashboard and in your scenes.
Die Dokumentation dieser Integration wird von ihrem Autor geschrieben und ist bisher nur auf Englisch verfügbar.
Unofficial connector, not affiliated with Bring! Labs. It brings your Bring! shopping lists into Gladys: a dashboard widget to see, add and check off items, scene actions and scene triggers. Bring! has no public API: the integration talks to Bring! the way the Bring! web app does, which Bring! may change at any time. Bring! is a trademark of Bring! Labs AG.
What you get
| Surface | Content |
|---|---|
| Dashboard widget | Bring! shopping list: the items to buy of one list, an Add form, a Check off form listing the items, an optional one-tap item |
| Scene actions | add an item (list, item, details), check off an item, remove an item, read a list (number of items, the items separated by commas) |
| Scene triggers | item added, item checked off, list emptied (the shopping is done) |
No device is created: Bring! lists are not devices.
Setup
- Install the integration, open its configuration and enter the email
and the password of your Bring! account. The password is sent only to
Bring! (
api.getbring.com); Gladys stores it encrypted. - Click Test the account: it lists your lists, their number of items and the language of their articles.
- Put the Bring! shopping list widget on a dashboard. Type the name of a list in its settings, or leave it empty for your default list. A one-tap item (for example "Milk") adds a button that puts it on the list at once.
If you sign in to Bring! with Google or Apple, your account may have no password. Create a second Bring! account with an email and a password, then invite it to your lists from the Bring! app: the integration sees the shared lists.
Item names
Bring! stores the items of its catalog under a German name ("Milch") and shows them in the language of each list ("Milk", "Lait"). The integration does the same in both directions: the widget and the scenes show "Milk", and when you add "milk" to an English list, it adds the catalog article (with its icon). A text that is not in the catalog ("AA batteries") is added as is.
Scenes
- Item added: someone added an item to a list, in the Bring! app or on a shared list. Variables: the list, the item, its details, the number of items to buy.
- Item checked off: an item was bought (checked off in the app). A removed item does not count.
- List emptied: the last item of a list was checked off or removed.
The filters compare exactly: type the list and the item as Bring! shows them ("Groceries", "Milk"), or leave them empty for any. The changes made through Gladys (a scene action, the widget) fire no trigger, so a scene cannot loop through the integration.
The actions return values for the steps that follow: add an item gives
{{item}} and {{count}}, check off and remove give {{done}}
(false when the item was not on the list), read a list gives {{count}}
and {{items}} ("Milk (2 l), Bread, Eggs"), handy in a message.
Pace
While the lists are watched (option Watch the lists, on by default), each list is read every 2 minutes (option Refresh interval, 1 minute at least), and right after a change made through Gladys. The names of the lists and their language are read once an hour, the article translations once a day. With the option off, nothing runs in the background: the widget and the actions read a list when they need it, and the triggers never fire.
Troubleshooting
- "Bring! refused the email or the password": fix them in the configuration and save; the integration does not try again by itself, so a wrong password cannot lock your account.
- "Bring! is unreachable": the integration tries again at the next refresh. If it lasts, Bring! may have changed its web API: open an issue.
- A trigger does not fire: check that the lists are watched and that the filter is spelled exactly like in Bring! (case included).
- The widget forms do nothing: the forms behind a button need Gladys 5.2 or later; the one-tap item works on 5.1.
- Logs: the integration's log level is set with the
LOG_LEVELvariable.
Privacy
The email and the password are sent only to Bring!, never logged. After the first sign-in, the integration keeps the Bring! session (your user id and a renewal token) in the Gladys configuration, so a restart does not send the password again. The lists stay between Gladys and Bring!.
Konfigurationseinstellungen
Diese Einstellungen fragt Bring! in seinem Konfigurationsbildschirm in Gladys ab.
| Einstellung | Typ | Pflichtfeld | Beschreibung |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bring! shopping lists | section | Nein | Unofficial connector, not affiliated with Bring! Labs. It signs in to your Bring! account like the Bring! web app does, with your email and password: the password is sent only to Bring! (api.getbring.com), stored encrypted by Gladys and never logged. You get a dashboard widget per list (items to buy, add, check off), scene actions (add, check off or remove an item, read a list) and scene triggers (item added, item checked off, list emptied). Bring! has no public API: this connector uses the one of its web app, which Bring! may change at any time. |
| Bring! account email | string | Ja | |
| Bring! account password | secret | Ja | Sent only to Bring!. An account opened with Google or Apple sign-in may have no password: see the guide. |
| Watch the lists (needed by the scene triggers) | boolean | Nein | Reads the lists in the background so that "item added", "item checked off" and "list emptied" work. Off: no background call, the widget and the scene actions read a list when they need it. |
| Refresh interval (minutes) | number | Nein | How often each watched list is read. A change made through Gladys is read back right away. |

Über externe Integrationen
Bring! ist eine externe Integration: eine Community-Integration, die als Docker-Container verpackt und auf GitHub veröffentlicht wird. Gladys installiert sie mit einem Klick und führt sie in einer vom Kern isolierten Sandbox aus. Sie wird von LM1LC3N7 veröffentlicht und gepflegt, nicht vom Gladys-Kernteam.
