ilidl 0.1.0

Unofficial Lidl Plus API client

iLidl

Unofficial Python client and CLI for the Lidl Plus API. Fetch receipts, parse item details, and manage coupons.

Installation

pip install ilidl

# Or with uv
uv add ilidl

# With auth support (requires Playwright for login)
pip install "ilidl[auth]"
playwright install chromium

Authentication

ilidl login

Launches a headless browser to complete the Lidl Plus OAuth flow. You'll be prompted for your phone number and a verification code. A refresh token is saved to ~/.config/ilidl/config.toml for future use.

CLI Usage

# Receipts
ilidl receipt latest              # Most recent receipt
ilidl receipt latest --json       # As JSON
ilidl receipt <id>                # Specific receipt
ilidl receipts                    # List all receipts
ilidl receipts --from 2026-03-01  # Filter by date
ilidl receipts --to 2026-03-18

# Coupons
ilidl coupons list                # List available coupons
ilidl coupons activate <id>       # Activate a coupon
ilidl coupons activate --all      # Activate all coupons
ilidl coupons deactivate <id>     # Deactivate a coupon

All commands support --json for machine-readable output.

Library Usage

from ilidl import LidlClient

client = LidlClient(refresh_token="...", country="GB", language="en")

# Get latest receipt with parsed items
receipt = client.latest_receipt()
for item in receipt.items:
    print(f"{item.name}: {item.price}")

# List coupons
for coupon in client.coupons():
    print(f"{coupon.title} (active: {coupon.is_activated})")

Configuration

Stored at ~/.config/ilidl/config.toml:

[auth]
refresh_token = "..."

[account]
language = "en"
country = "GB"

Notes

• UK receipts are returned as HTML by the API and parsed into structured items using data-* attributes.
• The App-Version header must be a realistic value (currently 16.45.5). The API rejects fake versions.
• API v2 is used for receipt lists, v3 for receipt detail.
• This project replaces the upstream lidl-plus library which is broken on modern Python.
