voc-to-mqtt

This node application uses https://github.com/molobrakos/volvooncall (CLI) to get information about your volvo and push it to a mqtt server. This allows for instance an OpenHab server to use the data to show information about your Volvo.

How to install

this is only tested under ubuntu server

1. clone this repo to any location you prefer (/opt/voc-to-mqtt if you plan to use systemd)

git clone https://github.com/arins/voc-to-mqtt.git

2. install npm dependencies

npm install

3. install volvooncall

pip3 install --user volvooncall

or

pip3 install volvooncall (installs https://github.com/molobrakos/volvooncall)

4. edit the config file config.json

Mqtt settings are straightforward

pathToVocApi should be something like this /home/YOURUSER/.local/bin/voc

VOCUsername should be your email adress which you use to login to Volvo on call

VOCPassword should be your password which you use to login to Volvo on call

refreshIntervallSeconds is how often the service will fetch data and check if data is new changed

5. (optional) Add voc-to-mqtt.service to your services and use systemd to start and stop the service You will need to change the user in the voc-to-mqtt.service to your user you are going to run the service in.

Usage

When the service is installed and running in the background you should recieve data in the following topics

The data will be published under specific topics see below.

How to use in OpenHab2 (not tested in OpenHab1 but should work)

You will need MQTT binding to be able to use this in OpenHab1/2 Below is an example for OpenHab2 items. Put this in your items files and then you can use the items as you like.

There are two transforms which will be needed they are included further down.

Openhab items

  if(i){
    return i.toString();
  }
