pycarwings3 0.7.4

Python library for interacting with the Nissan Leaf Carwings telematics service

pycarwings3

Introduction

pycarwings3 is a fork of pycarwings2, updated to support asynchronous operations with the Carwings API via aiohttp, focusing on Python 3 compatibility.

The original pycarwings2 project is no longer active.

Rationale Behind the New Name

The library underwent significant changes, especially adopting asynchronous programming, which led to a break in backward compatibility with pycarwings2.

The new name reflects these changes and aims for easier PyPI distribution.

Abstract

Library for connecting and interacting with Nissan's CARWINGS service for Nissan LEAF cars. Uses the (newly secure!) REST/JSON API rather than the previous XML-based API.

Asynchronous methods

Note that several of the most interesting methods in the CARWINGS service are asynchronous--you ask the service to do something, and it just says "ok". You then have to poll a corresponding method to find out if the operation was successful.

Recently the polling has continued to return zero, yet when querying the data held on the Nissan servers the last update date changes, indicating a response has been received from the car, see examples/get-leaf-info.py for how this can be handled.

Installation

pip3 install pycarwings3

Example usage

• Copy file ./examples/config.ini to ./examples/my_config.ini
• Edit my_config.ini and enter your username, password and region
• Run python3 ./examples/get-leaf-info.py
