# Torque Home Assistant Proxy
Make Torque web logging compatible for Home Assistant again.
## Problem
[Just following Home Assistant Torque Integration guide isn't enough anymore](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/torque/). Torque web logging supports only http and Home Assistant doesn't authenticate the user using `?api_password=YOUR_PASSWORD` query param anymore.
So you need a proxy that supports both https and adds the [long lived token](https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/auth_api/#long-lived-access-token) inside headers request to authenticate the user correctly.
This little proxy solves both problems.
## Getting started
You can download the executable `torque-hass-proxy-android-arm64` [from here](https://github.com/matitalatina/torque-hass-proxy/releases/tag/v1.0.0), move it into your and run it on your Android phone using [Termux](https://termux.com/).
For example, from android termux. You can run
```bash
# Install curl
pkg install curl
# Download the executable with curl
curl -L -o torque-hass-proxy https://github.com/matitalatina/torque-hass-proxy/releases/download/v1.0.0/torque-hass-proxy-android-arm64
# Grant execution permission for it
chmod +x torque-hass-proxy
# Run torque-hass-proxy
./torque-hass-proxy -url -token
```
then you have the port `8090` open and you can put `http://localhost:8090/api/torque` in Torque -> Settings -> Data Logging & Upload -> Webserver URL.
Finally, you should see torque data in your Home Assistant! If you add also [prometheus](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/prometheus/) + [grafana](https://grafana.com/), you can have also graphs like this.
## FAQ
- *Too many steps just to record torque data! Is there any way to simplify it?* No, but you can automate everything with [Tasker](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm&hl=it&gl=US). If my phone connects with my OBD dongle, Tasker starts automatically both torque and this proxy using [Termux:Tasker](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux.tasker&hl=it&gl=US).
- *How did you find this workaround?* This proxy is heavily inspired from this [Github comment](https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/28836#issuecomment-579887196). I chose Go because I don't want to use nodeJS runtime on my android phone, I wanted a native program.
