Volkswagen We Connect ID [ONLY FOR EUROPE]

forked from mitch-dc/volkswagen_we_connect_id

Added acceptable support to use the integration with a Volkswagen e-up! but the technical solution is far from optimal. I only added the model to be supported (the entities to be created) and a change for HA not to throw up on a nonexistent API endpoint.

Installation

HACS

The easiest way to add this to your Homeassistant installation is using HACS and add this repository as a custom repository. And then follow the instructions under Configuration below.

Manual

1. Using the tool of choice open the directory (folder) for your HA configuration (where you find configuration.yaml).
2. If you do not have a custom_components directory (folder) there, you need to create it.
3. In the custom_components directory (folder) create a new folder called volkswagen_we_connect_id.
4. Download all the files from the custom_components/volkswagen_we_connect_id/ directory (folder) in this repository.
5. Place the files you downloaded in the new directory (folder) you created.
6. Follow the instructions under Configuration below.

Using your HA configuration directory (folder) as a starting point you should now also have this:

custom_components/volkswagen_we_connect_id/__init__.py
custom_components/volkswagen_we_connect_id/manifest.json
custom_components/volkswagen_we_connect_id/sensor.py
.. etc

Configuration

It's important that you first use the app, connect the app to the car and use it at least once. After that enable the integration on the integration page in Home Assistant with your e-mail and password that you use to login into the app. Wait a couple of seconds and 1 or more devices (your cars) with entities will show up.
