External integration - Artisans map

Hello everyone,

The Craftsmen Map integration is available in the external integrations catalog :tada:

It displays in Gladys the craftsmen of a profession around your home: plumbers, electricians, carpenters, bakers, garages… The data comes from cartedesartisans.fr, an independent site that I created. It lists over 3 million active craft businesses, based on public Sirene (Insee) data and the trades directory, updated monthly.

What it brings:

  • a « Craftsmen near me » widget: you choose the profession, the radius (5 to 50 km) and optionally « labeled only ». The widget shows labeled companies (RGE, Living Heritage Company, Master Craftsman) first, then the closest ones, with the card, route, and phone number when the craftsman has added it;
  • a scene action « Search for a craftsman »: it returns the name, phone number, address, distance, and link of the most relevant craftsman. For example, a water leak alert can send you the nearest plumber on Telegram.

Privacy side: the position of the house is only used to calculate distances, in Gladys. It is never sent to the site. The integration only downloads the files of the profession and nearby departments, and keeps them in cache until the monthly update.

Transparency: at the top of the list, the widget can display up to 3 craftsmen marked « Sponsored ». This is the paid option that finances the site. These entries are always indicated, drawn at random, and do not change the other results or their order. The scene action never returns them.

You need Gladys 5.1 or higher and the position of the house entered in Settings › Houses.

Your feedback is welcome, here or in the GitHub issues!
