Geizhals Integration

The problem

For some time now, the integration Geizhals (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/geizhals/) no longer seems. No matter what I specify as a product id, no sensor is generated.

Environment

• Home Assistant Core release with the issue: Home Assistant 0.113.0 on Raspi4
• Last working Home Assistant Core release (if known):
• Operating environment (OS/Container/Supervised/Core):
• Integration causing this issue:
• Link to integration documentation on our website:

Problem-relevant configuration.yaml

This is the entry in the sensor.yaml:

# Geizhals sensor will give you the best price of a product 
# https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/geizhals/
  - platform: geizhals 
    name: Raspi
    product_id: 2081132

Found the error in the "geizhals.py" lib. Geizhals has changed their website layout, so the beautifulsoup search does not return the right results. In geizhals.py replace line 77 with: raw = soup.find('h1', attrs={'class': 'variant__header__headline'}) and line 114 with '.variant__header__options-list__item-link')[0].attrs['href']

I tried to create a pull request, but the repo is read-only. So here is my fork: https://github.com/timherrm/geizhals I wrote an e-mail to the repo owner, maybe he will answer me and accept the pull request.

Quick, but temporary fix is to ssh into your home-assistant machine, open an interactive shell into the homeassistant-docker container and edit the file with "vi". Be careful, as you can damage your home-assistant installation, if you don't know what you are doing. This fix survives a home assistant reboot, but not an upgrade.
