I have a Cupra Born, and I'd love to help make this.
Hi there! I recently picked up my Cupra Born and I'd love to make this work with my car as well. Could you tell me what I can do to help?
Good new, and congratulations to your new car. I hope you love it :) First question: Is the mycupra app already working for you? If it is working the complicated part starts. I would prepare a test version for you to try out.
Yes it is working! I can send you screenshots or whatever you need if you want. Would it be easier to discuss this via Discord or would you like to keep everything in Github?
I would prefer if we could keep the discussion here at GitHub to allow potentially others to also try it out. Also it helps a bit my working style as I can answer asynchronously :) If we have confidential parts let's use an email.
Are you a bit experienced in SW development and using python? I have a first version in a separate branch that we could use for initial testing.
I have some experience in python, but I have no idea what steps I should take when trying this out. Could you explain what I should do?
sure,
you need to clone the project: git clone https://github.com/tillsteinbach/WeConnect-python.git
and cd WeConnect-python
install all requirements: pip3 install -r requirements.txt
then you switch to the seat branch: git checkout feature/seat
then go to the examples folder: cd examples
and try out python allVehicles.py -b seat -u yourmyseatusername -p yourpassword
I guess it won't work out of the box, but we can try continuing from there with the error messages we get.
Traceback (most recent call last): File "allVehicles.py", line 32, in <module> main() File "allVehicles.py", line 13, in main parser.add_argument('-b', '--brand', help='Brand if other (e.g. seat)', required=False, type=weconnect.WeConnect.Brand, AttributeError: type object 'WeConnect' has no attribute 'Brand'
hmmmm, can you try to install it like that: pip3 install -e . and then execute the command again? might have something todo with paths
ah sorry you need to execute that in the WeConnect-python folder, not examples
Initialize WeConnect
Login
update
print results
done
That's what it said in command prompt. What now?
so on the positive side: you did not get an error :) on the negative side: also no data.
I would need to see now what is coming back from the server.
Can you add weConnect.persistCacheAsJson('test.json') right after print('# done') this should write a file with the answer from the server
hmmm, ok, new try:
Lets use the CLI it has more logging options:
git clone https://github.com/tillsteinbach/WeConnect-cli.git
cd WeConnect-cli
git checkout feature/seat
pip3 install -e .
and then:
weconnect-cli -vvv -b seat -u yourmyseatusername -p yourpassword get /
this should give you more output
I assume the last line should be python weconnect-cli -vvv -b seat -u yourmyseatusername -p yourpassword get /
I get the error about WeConnect not having attribute 'Brand'. I tried doing the pip3 install -e . but that doesn't help
no, after the pip3 install -e . the python in front should not be necessary.
Without python works, but gives the same error about the attribute 'Brand'.
weconnect-li --version gives the same error as well
maybe it has overwritten the library, can you do a pip3 install -e . in the WeConnect-python folder again and then try weconnect-cli?
yes, but I think it still overwrite the package. Can you now do a weconnect-cli --version ?
weconnect-cli --version now gives:
weconnect-cli develop (using WeConnect-python develop
ok, that is better. now we can go back to: weconnect-cli -vvv -b seat -u yourmyseatusername -p yourpassword get /
with -vvv it should also output something about the communication that is going on
