A home assistant integration that monitors games on sale on your Steam wishlist.

Steam Wishlist for Home Assistant

A custom component that keeps track of when games on your Steam wishlist are on sale. This component uses the config flow and can easily be configured via the Integrations section in the UI.

Pre-Installation

Prior to installing this integration you must first ensure that your wishlist is publicly viewable. To do this, login to you steam account and edit your profile. Under the Privacy Settings tab, set Game Details to Public. Without this step, this integration will not be able to parse your wishlist.

2. Install the integration.
3. In the home assistant configuration screen click on Integrations.
4. Click on the + icon to add a new integration.
5. Search for Steam Wishlist and select it.
6. Enter your steam account name and click Submit.

Manual Installation

2. Extract the files and move the steam_wishlist folder into the path to your custom_components. e.g. /config/custom_components.
3. In the home assistant configuration screen click on Integrations.

5. Search for Steam Wishlist and select it.
6. Enter your steam account name and click Submit.

After you successfully setup the integration a number of sensors will be created.

Displaying in Lovelace

You are able to use any card or custom card to show a list of your games that are on sale by utilizing the sensor.steam_wishlist. Additionally you can use the nintendo-wishlist-card to display the games on sale from your Steam wish list. This is possible because I maintain this integration as well as the nintendo-wishlist integration, and the way they store their attributes in sensors is identical. So if you install the card you add it to lovelace like so:

- type: custom:nintendo-wishlist-card
  entity: sensor.steam_wishlist
  title: Steam Wishlist
  image_style: backgroundart
  max: 10
