Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The canonical source of fuel prices in Queensland, Australia is the API described at https://www.fuelpricesqld.com.au/ and this will always provide the most accurate and current prices available.

Describe the solution you'd like

Support for the https://www.fuelpricesqld.com.au/ API.

Describe alternatives you've considered

This problem does not lend itself to an alternative. I currently use an IOS app called Petty which accesses this information.

Additional context

Scraped data from the listed apps lags behind the API considerably and I would like to create automations which notify me of good prices close to where I am or to monitor particular petrol stations and send me notifications when the prices drop.

Hi,

As this requires an API token to interact with, its not something I will look at immediately, but will be added for future consideration.

Thanks
