Python SDK for DVSA MOT History API

DVSA MOT History Python SDK

dvsa_mot_history is a Python SDK that provides a simple interface for interacting with the DVSA MOT History API, allowing retrieval of MOT history, test results, and bulk downloads for vehicles registered with DVSA, DVA Northern Ireland, or the Commercial Vehicle Service.

Features

• Retrieve Vehicle MOT History by Registration: Fetch detailed MOT history using a vehicle's registration number.
• Retrieve Vehicle MOT History by VIN: Fetch detailed MOT history using a vehicle's VIN.
• Bulk Download of MOT History Data: Retrieve bulk MOT history data files for further processing.

Installation

Install the package using pip:

pip install dvsa_mot_history

Usage

Initialisation

To use the MOTHistory class, you'll need the client_id, client_secret, tenant_id, and api_key credentials provided by the DVSA API service.

from dvsa_mot_history import MOTHistory

mot_history = MOTHistory(
    client_id="your-client-id",
    client_secret="your-client-secret",
    tenant_id="your-tenant-id",
    api_key="your-api-key"
)

Fetch MOT History by Registration

To fetch MOT history for a vehicle using its registration number:

import asyncio
from dvsa_mot_history import ErrorResponse

async def get_mot_history_by_registration():
    response = await mot_history.get_vehicle_history_by_registration("AB12CDE")
    if isinstance(response, ErrorResponse):
        print(f"Error: {response.message}")
    else:
        print(f"Vehicle: {response.make} {response.model}")
        for test in response.motTests:
            print(f"Test Date: {test.completedDate}, Result: {test.testResult}")

asyncio.run(get_mot_history_by_registration())

Fetch MOT History by VIN

To fetch MOT history for a vehicle using its VIN:

async def get_mot_history_by_vin():
    response = await mot_history.get_vehicle_history_by_vin("12345678901234567")
    if isinstance(response, ErrorResponse):
        print(f"Error: {response.message}")
    else:
        print(f"Vehicle: {response.make} {response.model}")
        for test in response.motTests:
            print(f"Test Date: {test.completedDate}, Result: {test.testResult}")

asyncio.run(get_mot_history_by_vin())

Bulk Download of MOT History Data

To download bulk MOT history data:

async def download_bulk_mot_history():
    response = await mot_history.get_bulk_download()
    if isinstance(response, ErrorResponse):
        print(f"Error: {response.message}")
    else:
        for file in response.bulk:
            print(f"Bulk File: {file.filename}, URL: {file.downloadUrl}")
        for file in response.delta:
            print(f"Delta File: {file.filename}, URL: {file.downloadUrl}")

asyncio.run(download_bulk_mot_history())

Classes and Data Structures

MOT Test Classes

• DVSAMotTest
• DVANIMotTest
• CVSMotTest

These classes represent the MOT test results from their respective agencies, containing details such as the test result, odometer readings, defects, and more.

Vehicle Response Classes

• VehicleWithMotResponse
• NewRegVehicleResponse

These classes encapsulate vehicle information, including the make, model, registration details, and a list of MOT tests.

Error Handling

The ErrorResponse class handles errors returned by the API, providing details about the error, including the status code and message.
