Get tokens for Google Home Foyer API

Intro

This script (python 3) generates tokens that can be used when making requests to the Google Home Foyer API. There are 2 kinds of tokens used here:

1. Master token - Is in the form aas_et/*** and is long lived. Needs Google username and password.
2. Access token - Is in the form ya29.*** and lasts for an hour. Needs Master token to generate.

If you do not want to store the Google account password in plaintext, get the master token once, and set it as an override value.

It's safer/easier to generate an app password and use it instead of the actual password. It still has the same access as the regular password, but still better than using the real password while scripting. (https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords)

Usage

# Install python requirements
pip install gpsoauth

# Update the constants at the beginning of the file

# Get the tokens!
python3 get_tokens.py

or can someone explain how to do that docker

Since there are several issues getting the token reliable on different environments, you can use a docker container which was created solely for this use: https://hub.docker.com/r/breph/ha-google-home_get-token. If you choose to use this container, run the following command:

$ docker run --rm -it breph/ha-google-home_get-token

i have no clue what to do here

@BimpArno you can edit get_tokens.py of the docker image you linked and rebuild it with its Dockerfile, it's all here I believe. Add the lines from a few comments ago. If it is that same issue, it should work.

so the Dockerfile worked, but i had to add import os to the get_tokens.py working so now it looks like this:

How can I delete or overwrite the master token?

This script doesn't seem to work.

Updated the script's username and password variables. Tried full email, just the username, normal password, the app password. For the app password, I'd remove the spaces and any extra characters but no luck.

HA Integration throws the same error.

[] Getting master token...
{'Error': 'BadAuthentication'}
[!] Could not get master token.
[] Master token: None

[] Getting access token...
{'Error': 'BadAuthentication'}
[!] Could not get access token.
[] Access token: None

Just spent way too long trying to get this working with no success
