athlon-flex-api 0.1.3

Unofficial API client for Athlon Flex Lease

Introduction

This is an unofficial API for the Athlon-Flex. The supported endpoints are found by checking network traffic while interacting with the web app. It will not expose all available endpoints, but mainly those to load available vehicles.

Installation

Install this package using pip:

pip install athlon-flex-api

Getting Started

To use this package, you should start by instantiating the API client.

from athlon_flex_api.api import AthlonFlexApi
api = AthlonFlexApi(
    email="[e-mail]"
    password="YourVeryStrongPassword",
    gross_yearly_income=100000, # Optional
    apply_loonheffingskorting=True, # Optional, Defaults to True
)

The email and password arguments are required. You can optionally provide an (approximation) of your yearly gross income, and whether you apply loonheffingskorting. These two values will be used to figured the tax percentage belonging to your income. this information is included in API calls, resulting in Athlon providing a calculated Net costs of your vehicle.

Entity Definitions

When you open the Athlon Flex Dashboard, you are presented with a grid of available cars. These cars are internally called VehicleClusters. This name makes sense, because a car is actually a collection of car instances: Athlon often has several cars available of the same make and model. A VehicleCluster is therefor defined by its make and model. This is a VehicleCluster of the make Mercedes-Benz and the model A-Klasse: Currently, Athlon has 2 Vehicles in this cluster available:

Examples

Load VehicleClusters

Use the following code to load all VehicleClusters:

from athlon_flex_api.models.filters.vehicle_cluster_filter import NoFilter
from athlon_flex_api.models.vehicle_cluster import DetailLevel, VehicleClusters
from athlon_flex_api.models.vehicle_cluster import 
vehicles_clusters: VehicleClusters = api.vehicle_clusters(
    filter_=NoFilter(), # Optional
    detail_level=DetailLevel.INCLUDE_VEHICLES, # Optional
)
print(vehicles_clusters)

Filter

The filter parameter is optional. We distinguish the following possible values:

• [Default]None includes the filters as loaded from the users profile. This excludes any VehicleClusters that are not leasable with the budget of th user. This mimics the web app when logged in.
• NoFilter() does not include any filter in the request. This mimics the web app when not logged in.
• VehicleClusterFilter() provides custom filter values. Take a look at the VehicleClusterFilter class to check what filters are available.

Detail level

The detail level is optional. It provides the possibility to define the level of details in the response. Loading more details requires more api calls, hence the function will take longer to complte. We distinguish the following possible values:

• [Default]DetailLevel.INCLUDE_VEHICLE_DETAILS loads all clusters and their vehicles. The vehicles will have all their detailed properties loaded.
• DetailLevel.INCLUDE_VEHICLES loads all clusters and their vehicles. The vehicles will have some basic properties loaded, but many are not.
• DetailLevel.CLUSTER_ONLY loads all clusters, but not their vehicles.

Load Vehicles

With the vehicle_cluster function, all available data clusters and vehicles can be loaded. However, if you wish to load vehicles of a certain make and model manually, you can use the following code:

from athlon_flex_api.models.vehicle import Vehicle
from athlon_flex_api.models.filters.vehicle_filter import NoFilter
    vehicles: list[Vehicle] = api.vehicles(
        make="Mercedes-Benz",
        model="A-Klasse",
        filter_=NoFilter(), # Optional
    )
print(vehicles)

Filter

The filter parameter is optional. We distinguish the following possible values:

• [Default]None includes the filters as loaded from the users profile. This excludes any Vehicles that are not leasable with the budget of th user. It also defines some price calculation properties.
• NoFilter() does not include any filter in the request. All available Vehicles of the provided make and model will be loaded.
• VehicleFilter() provides custom filter values. Take a look at the VehicleFilter class to check what filters are available.

Note that above function will load the vehicles without extra details. To load all available details, call the vehicle_details function for each vehicle:

from athlon_flex_api.models.vehicle import Vehicle
vehicle_detailed: Vehicle = api.vehicle_details(vehicle)
print(vehicles)

Tax Rates

Athlon provides a TaxRates endpoint, providing a list of TaxRate items. These include a description indicating the gross yearly income rates which belong to the TaxRate, and whether to include loonheffingskorting in the calculation of net prices. The TaxRate also includes the percentage of tax rate that must be paid with this income / loonheffingskorting combination. The Api uses this endpoint internally, to provide these details with other requests. This information causes the api to include net-price computations, like the netCostPerMonthInEuro in the Vehicle class.

The endpoint is also made available for use, using the following code snippet:

from athlon_flex_api.models.tax_rate import TaxRates
tax_rates: TaxRates = api.tax_rates()
print(tax_rates)

Profile

The Profile includes information about the users account, like the lease budget, address, and available kilometers per month. The API uses it internally, for example to filter the Vehicles that are leasable by the user. The endpoint exposes the profile using a cached property. Use the following code snippet:

from athlon_flex_api.models.profile import Profile
profile: Profile = api.profile
print(profile)

Load data asynchronously

The Api uses aiohttp to load data using asyncio. Therefor, all functionality is made available through function suffixed with async. Every async method is also made available synchronously (as is shown in the examples above), by removing the suffix _async. If you would like to include the API in an asynchronnous context, it is advices to use the asynchronous functionality instead. For example:

import asyncio
from athlon_flex_api.api import AthlonFlexApi
from athlon_flex_api.models.vehicle_cluster import DetailLevel, VehicleClusters

async def main() -> None:
    api = AthlonFlexApi(email="[e-mail]", password="YourVeryStrongPassword")
    vehicle_clusters: VehicleClusters = await api.vehicle_clusters_async(
        detail_level=DetailLevel.CLUSTER_ONLY
    )
    print(vehicle_clusters)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())
