Hi all!
I often struggle to remember where/if I’ve ordered a product (my email account is a mess, my own fault!), how much I’ve paid and if it was for me or for some member of my family.
Is there a self hosted service that you’ve tried and find helpful that can do this kind of job?
That sounds like a job for… a spreadsheet.
Not all heroes wear macros.
😱 Noooooo! 😆
I mean, that would be an easy solution, but being a self hoster, I’m maniac about self hostng everything! 🙈
Has Home Assistant integration as well.
That could be a solution, thanks!
It’s just a spreadsheet system but it uses python under the hood so you can do some pretty cool stuff with it. You can use it to build a little item tracker for yourself to your own specifications.
For example I used it to make a system for tracking car maintenance. So there’s a sheet for managing car parts, a sheet for managing job types, a sheet for managing tools and then a main sheet I can use to add repair and maintenance jobs, quick add the parts I’m buying, tools I’m using etc and I’ll get a total cost and all.
I came across ryot a while ago but didn’t have a chance to really play with it. It might be useful for something like this though. Grocy is another that comes to mind.
Shop.com has a great service that combs through my email and tracks everything I’ve ordered and when it’s coming. It even has access to my Amazon account directly since their tracking isn’t in the email. You’d need a service that can do that without selling your entire purchase history to anyone who’s interested. Good luck.
I wasn’t looking for something that advanced, I was thinking about something more simpler where I can manually insert the orders details.
Shop has been purposefully making their app worse to use as a package tracker while filling it with ads and making it the slowest, most bloated app I have the misfortune of using. Nothing about it is “great”.
