pip3 install weconnect-cli

How to use

Start weconnect-cli from the commandline:

weconnect-cli

You get all the usage information by using the --help command

weconnect-cli --help

With the "list" command you can get a list of all available information you can query

weconnect-cli list
/vehicles/WVWABCE1ZSD057394
/vehicles/WVWABCE1ZSD057394/vin
/vehicles/WVWABCE1ZSD057394/role

/vehicles/WVWABCE1ZSD057394/model
/vehicles/WVWABCE1ZSD057394/nickname

You can then pass the addresses to the "get" command:

weconnect-cli get /vehicles/WVWABCE1ZSD057394/model
