kamikac/google-location repository overview

⁠google-location

This Python script fetches the location data from Google and publishes it to MQTT.

This script has been provided by user Marmoset_Threat in this thread⁠ on openHAB community forum

I've adopted script for use in Docker container.

⁠Using with Docker

Folowing env variables can be passed to Docker container to configure it:

• GOOGLE_EMAIL - email to log in to Google services (empty by default, required)
• COOKIES_FILE - file with session cookies (default 'googlemaps_cookie.txt')
• MQTT_CLIENT_NAME - name of the MQTTclient (default 'google_location_mqtt')

• MQTT_TOPIC - topic to which events will be stored to (default 'googlelocation/')
