Traeger Grills?

Forum rules

Questions about hardware that can be controlled by Indigo (but not through the interfaces and plugins listed). If Indigo doesn't support some bit of hardware you're interested in, and you don't find a 3rd Party Plugin for it, add it to this forum. Be sure to include links to as much information as you can find about it.

Note: adding it here does not mean we're going to add it - in fact it's possible one of our 3rd party developers may decide to write a plugin for it. We add hardware/features based on a lot of different factors beyond just having a request for it.

Traeger Grills?

Just picked up a Traeger wifi grill and, of course, would love to have Indigo control it.

Anyone have any info on what may be possible?

Thanks,

Carl

Re: Traeger Grills?

Congratulations -- those look awful nice.

It's going to require a custom plugin most likely. There have been other plugins that emulate app control by Indigo, but such things require reverse-engineering the secure connection and what not (I've never done one of these myself). Such things also tend to break over time as the manufacturers tend to change things.

My Traeger is the pre-Wifi model. :(

Re: Traeger Grills?

There's a complete HASS component on GitHub: https://github.com/sebirdman/hass_traeger

Unfortunately, it's Python3. So until Indigo supports Python3, it's very complicated to do a plugin, as I've already done it for a few other devices. And I don't have a Wifi Traeger to test with.

And they don't make a Wifi version of the grill I have, nor (that I can find) a Wifi upgrade for it.
