Bibliotheek.be Bib Home Assistant integration

bibliotheek.be Home Assistant custom component. It provides a clear overview of all items loaned a the different libraries by different users linked to an main account (eg children). An overview off all items per library or an overview of all items per user can be shown, see complex markdown examples below. Based on the sensors, automations can be build to get warned: eg when little time is left and certainly when extension is not possible. By using the custom services available in this integration, the loans can be extended automatically, which can be integrated in automations.

⚠️ Please don't report issues with this integration to Bibliotheek.be, they will not be able to support you.

Installation

• HACS: search for the integration in the list of HACS
  • 
• Restart Home Assistant
• Add 'Bibliotheek.be' integration via HA Settings > 'Devices and Services' > 'Integrations'
• Provide Bibliotheek.be username and password

Integration

Sensors Bibliotheek.be should become available with the number of items lent out.

• sensor.bibliotheek_be_[username]_[library] will be created for each user linked to the account

  Attribute	Description
  State	Number of loans by this user at this library
  userid	Technical user id assigned by bibliotheek.be
  barcode	The unique user barcode which is also shown on the library card
  barcode_url	Image url of the unique user barcode which is also shown on the library card
  num_loans	Number of loans by this user at this library (same as state value)
  num_reservations	Number of reservations by this user at this library
  open_amounts	Open amount (€) due to this library (eg related to fines)
  username	First and lastname of the user
  libraryName	Name of the library or the group of libraries
  loandetails	Json containing all the loans of this user at this library. The structure of json is: { 'item name' :  { tile: 'title of the item',     author: 'author of the item',     loan_type: 'type of the item (eg book, dvd, ...) ,     url: 'url of the specific item',     image_src: 'url to image of the item',     days_remaining: 'number of days by which the item has to be returned or extended',     loan_from: 'Start date of the loan',     loan_till: 'Date by which the item needs to be returned',     extend_loan_id: 'the id used to extend the item, if no id is available, the item can not be extended',     library: 'name of the actual library location (city) where the item is belonging too',     user: 'the user that lended the item',     barcode: 'the barcode of the card that was used to lend the item' }

• sensor.bibliotheek_be_bib_[library] will be created for each library

  Attribute	Description
  State	Min days left by which some items need to be returned
  some_not_extendable	True if some of the items that needs to be returned first (see state for nr of days) of this library can not be extended
  lowest_till_date	Min date by which some items need to be returned
  num_loans	Number of loans that need to be returned first (see state for nr of days)
  num_loans_total	Total number of loans at this library
  loandetails	Json containing all the loans of this user at this library. The structure of json is: [{ 'item name' :  { tile: 'title of the item',     author: 'author of the item',     loan_type: 'type of the item (eg book, dvd, ...) ,     url: 'url of the specific item',     image_src: 'url to image of the item',     days_remaining: 'number of days by which the item has to be returned or extended',     loan_from: 'Start date of the loan',     loan_till: 'Date by which the item needs to be returned',     extend_loan_id: 'the id used to extend the item, if no id is available, the item can not be extended',     library: 'name of the actual library location (city) where the item is belonging too',     user: 'the user that lended the item',     barcode: 'the barcode of the card that was used to lend the item' }]
  <loan_type>	Number of items of this loan type lended. For each loan type known this attribute will be added
  address	Street and city address details of the library
  latitude	GPS coordincates of the library, makes it possible to show the sensor on a map

  phone	Phone number of the library
  email	Email address of the library
  opening_hours	Opening hours of the library
  closed_date	Closing days of the library with reason of closure

• sensor.bibliotheek_be_warning will indicate within how many days some items have to be returned at *any* library (this can be used of conditions, notifications, etc).

  Attribute	Description
  State	Min days left by which some items need to be returned by any user linked to the account at any library

     service: bibliotheek_be.extend_loan
     data:
       extend_loan_id: 12345678

     service: bibliotheek_be.extend_loan
     data:
       max_days_remaining: 8
    

Status

Still some optimisations are planned, see Issues section in GitHub.

Technical pointers

The main logic and API connection related code can be found within source code bibliotheek_be/custom_components/bibliotheek_be:

• sensor.py
• utils.py -> mainly ComponentSession class
• _init_.py -> general setup + services

All other files just contain boilerplat code for the integration to work wtihin HA or to have some constants/strings/translations.

Example with conditional check for warnings:

Extra binary sensor based on personal perference on number of days to limit the warning

The example below will create a binary sensor that will turn on if items have to be returned within 7 days. The alert sensor will be turned on if items have to be returned within 7 days and no extension is possible for some or all. configuration.yaml:

Click to show the binary sensor configuration example

binary_sensor:
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      bibliotheek_warning_7d:
        friendly_name: Bibliotheek Warning 7d
        value_template: >
           {{states('sensor.bibliotheek_be_warning')|int <= 7}}
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      bibliotheek_alert_7d:
        friendly_name: Bibliotheek Alert 7d
        value_template: >
           {{states('sensor.bibliotheek_be_warning')|int <= 7 and state_attr('sensor.bibliotheek_be_warning','some_not_extendable') == True}}

Base on these sensors, a automation can be build for notifications or below conditional card can be defined:

Click to show the lovelace card example

- type: conditional
conditions:
  - entity: binary_sensor.bibliotheek_warning_7d
	state: 'on'
  - entity: binary_sensor.bibliotheek_alert_7d
	state: 'off'
card:

  content: ⏰Boeken verlengen deze week !

Example automation that will automatically extend all items that have 7 or less days left before they need to be returned, whenever the days left is is below 6.

Example script to create a persistent notification for all books

When going to the library, I often want to make sure all books are packed. So I created a script that will make a persisten notification for each book lended. This way, when the book is added into our basket, the notification can easily be dismissed and remaining books can be searched.
