## CarConnectivity will become the successor of [WeConnect-python](https://github.com/tillsteinbach/WeConnect-python) in 2025 with similar functionality but support for other brands beyond Volkswagen!

[CarConnectivity](https://github.com/tillsteinbach/CarConnectivity) is a python API to connect to various car services. This connector enables the integration of volkswagen vehicles through the WeConnect API. Look at [CarConnectivity](https://github.com/tillsteinbach/CarConnectivity) for other supported brands.

## Configuration

In your carconnectivity.json configuration add a section for the volkswagen connector like this:

```

{

    "carConnectivity": {

        "connectors": [

            {

                "type": "volkswagen",

                "config": {

                    "username": "test@test.de",

                    "password": "testpassword123"

                }

            }

        ]

    }

}

```

### Credentials

If you do not want to provide your username or password inside the configuration you have to create a ".netrc" file at the appropriate location (usually this is your home folder):

```

# For WeConnect

machine volkswagen

login test@test.de

password testpassword123

```

In this case the configuration needs to look like this:

```

{

    "carConnectivity": {

        "connectors": [

            {

                "type": "volkswagen",

                "config": {

                }

            }

        ]

    }

}

```

You can also provide the location of the netrc file in the configuration.

```

{

    "carConnectivity": {

        "connectors": [

            {

                "type": "volkswagen",

                "config": {

                    "netrc": "/some/path/on/your/filesystem"

                }

            }

        ]

    }

}

```

The optional S-PIN needed for some commands can be provided in the account section of the netrc:

```

# For WeConnect

machine volkswagen

login test@test.de

password testpassword123

account 1234

```

### Limitations

The connector is not working with US based vehicles.
