ioBroker.shelfmate

ShelfMate – your pantry at a glance.

ShelfMate is a pantry manager for ioBroker. It tells you at any time which food you have at home, where it is stored and what needs to be bought again.

Scan products by barcode, manage them on shelves and in cupboards, and put them on your shopping list automatically when needed. Minimum stock, best-before dates and consumption are taken into account as well.

You use it through a web app that you open on your phone and add to the home screen. A separate app is not needed.

Features

Products and storage locations

• Add products by barcode or by hand, with name suggestions and a matching category when creating by hand
• Load product data from Open Food Facts and its sister databases (cosmetics, pet food, household) automatically (name, brand, package size, Nutri-Score and categories); the source is shown in the app
• Unknown barcodes: a button searches the web for name, brand and picture, also for all new products at once (with a review page before anything is saved) or for the picture only (only on request, can be turned off)
• Edit and refresh product data at any time
• Create your own EAN-13 barcodes for products without a barcode
• Upload your own product images (scaled down automatically)
• Create storage areas and locations, for example kitchen, pantry or cellar
• Select storage locations with QR codes
• Stock in, take out and move stock between locations
• Follow every booking in a history
• Find products quickly with the search, including suggestions while you type
• Combine products of different brands into groups, for example flour or sugar

Minimum stock and shopping list

• Set a minimum stock for single products or whole product groups
• Put products on the shopping list automatically when the minimum stock is reached
• Manage the shopping list through data points, Bring! or Bring! special
• With Bring! special, quantities and variants are merged on the same entry instead of creating duplicates
• Remove products from the shopping list automatically when the stock is refilled
• Optionally write the missing quantity on the shopping list
• List the stock of consumables locations (for example the fridge) in data points
• Evaluate the consumption of the last 30 days
• Suggest a fitting minimum stock based on past consumption

Shelf life and best-before date

• Store the best-before date (MHD) optionally per product or per stocking
• Warn about products that expire soon or have expired
• Tab "Tasks" collects everything to do: new products to complete, due stocktaking, group and minimum stock suggestions, and products without a date (leave the date empty to keep chosen packages without one)
• Suggest a standard shelf life for many foods automatically
• Take the shelf life after opening into account
• Mark products as opened or spoiled
• Recognise automatically filled-in values by the sparkle symbol
• Set your own shelf life values for products and groups
• Baby food in jars gets a short standard shelf life after opening (1 to 2 days)
• Edit the shelf life rules (keywords with days before and after opening) and search all products with their shelf life, including the value after opening

Check ingredients

Want to cook something and know whether all ingredients are at home? ShelfMate can compare a list of ingredients, for example from a recipe app, with your stock. Missing ingredients can be put on the shopping list directly. What is already in stock is not added again.

Scanning and labels

• Capture barcodes with the phone camera or a scanner
• Create and print QR codes for storage locations
• Print EAN and QR labels in your own sizes, for example 50 × 30 mm
• Labels for shelves, boxes, the freezer (with a free text line, for example the weight) and opened products
• Choose which labels the app offers
• Code library: save your own codes (for example from other scanners or apps), print them as labels and choose which of the control codes go into the PDF
• Scanner mode for stocking in and out without the web app open; scanners with a USB dongle or Bluetooth are read directly on the ioBroker host
• Repeated scans (three or more) trigger actions you choose: stock in at the last location, mark as empty, put on the shopping list and more
• Do a stocktaking by product list or by scanner

Overview and notifications

• Show the whole stock by storage location
• Warnings for minimum stock and expiring products
• Notifications through Telegram, telegrammenu2, Pushover, Signal, WhatsApp, Matrix or e-mail
• Daily summary of products that expire soon or have expired, optionally only on chosen days before the date (for example 7,4,3,2,1,0)
• Stocktaking reminders
• Suggestions for product groups and minimum stock
• Data points for VIS or your own scripts
• JSON backups and export as CSV or PDF

Web app

• Runs directly in the browser on phone, tablet and PC
• Can be added to the iPhone or Android home screen
• Modern glass look in the style of iOS 27: glass tab bar that folds into a circle while scrolling, glass switches and sliders, system-like fonts
• Search bars in glass look that stay at the top while you scroll, with a button to clear the text
• Choose the accent colour and the background colour; two sliders set how transparent and how blurred the glass parts are
• Offline queue for bookings when the connection is lost
• Give each device a name so bookings can be told apart in the history
• Undo the last booking

Installation

ShelfMate is installed like any other ioBroker adapter.

1. Install the adapter shelfmate in the ioBroker admin.
2. Create an instance.
3. Open the web app at https://<host>:8120/.
4. Optionally add the page to the home screen.

The default port is 8120 and can be changed in the settings.

Getting started

1. Create storage locations: Create your storage areas and locations, for example Kitchen → Pantry → Shelf 1.
2. Print QR codes: Attach the matching QR codes to your storage locations.
3. Add products: Scan a barcode or create a product by hand. Much of the product data is loaded from Open Food Facts automatically.
4. Stock in: Select the location by QR code and book in the amount.
5. Set a minimum stock: ShelfMate can put products on your shopping list automatically when the stock gets low.

A detailed description is in the guide.

Settings

The most important functions can be adjusted directly in the adapter configuration.

| Setting | Description | | --- | --- | | Appearance (in the app) | Theme, accent colour (default blue), background colour (default grey), transparency and blur of the glass parts. Applies to this device only | | Port / bind address | Port and network interface of the web server (default: 8120) | | HTTPS | Turn on HTTPS and choose the certificates | | Create certificate | Creates a self-signed certificate for the host name and IP addresses, valid for 825 days. Restart the instance afterwards | | Certificates | Use certificates from ioBroker or, for example, from the acme adapter | | Access key | Optional protection for API access, entered once per device | | Shopping list | Off, script, Bring! or Bring! special | | Web search for unknown products | Adds the "Search the web" button to the product editor (on by default). It only runs when tapped and only sends the barcode | | Token for ean-search.org | Optional free token. With it, the web search uses the official interface of ean-search.org and is not blocked after a few lookups | | Key for Open EAN database | Optional free query ID of opengtindb.org. With it, the web search also asks the Open EAN / GTIN database for the name | | Group name on the list | Grouped products go on the shopping list with the group name (default). Off: the first empty product of the group | | Best-before management | Off, per product or per stocking | | Date format | DD.MM.YYYY, DD/MM/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD | | Notifications | Choose the adapter, the recipient and the messages you want | | Fill in shelf life automatically | Enter standard values always, only in scanner mode or never | | Which standard values | All stored shelf lives or only the built-in dry goods list | | Expiry warning | How many days before expiry to warn | | Ingredient check | Put missing ingredients on the shopping list automatically | | Scanner mode | Set the scanner device, time gaps, prefix, suffix and the QR code type | | Labels | Choose the available label types and print options | | Stocktaking reminder | Reminder after a set number of days without a stocktaking |

Best-before date

There are three modes for the best-before management:

• Off: No best-before management.
• Per product: One shared best-before date for the product.
• Per stocking: Every stocking can have its own best-before date. When taking out, the oldest stock is used first.

ShelfMate can also fill in standard shelf lives automatically. Values you enter yourself always win.

Shopping list

ShelfMate supports four modes:

• Off: No automatic shopping list.
• Script: Handed over through ioBroker data points. With the option to write the missing amount, the script receives Name, amount (for example Milk, 2); the list state may contain more fields than name, they are ignored. The item added last is also available as JSON in shopping.lastItem.
• Bring!: Products are added to the Bring! shopping list.
• Bring! special: Existing entries are not skipped. Quantities are counted up and variants are added (for example Feta, Kräuter, 200g).

Optionally, products are removed from the list again when the stock is refilled.

More details are in the guide to the shopping list.

Notifications

Messages can be sent through these adapters:

• Telegram and telegrammenu2
• Pushover
• Signal
• WhatsApp
• Matrix
• E-mail

You choose whether ShelfMate notifies you about low stock, expiring products or a stocktaking that is due. For the daily expiry message you can set a fixed time and the days before the date on which it is sent (for example 7,4,3,2,1,0; 0 = on the day, empty = every day within the warning period).
