Information

Retrieve information about your Cupra/Seat vehicle from the Cupra/Seat portal.

Breaking changes

• The method vehicle.update(updateType) supports 3 different update types:

  • updateType=0: Small update (=only get_basiccardata() and get_statusreport are called). If the last full update is more than 1100 seconds ago, then a full update is performed.
  • updateType=1: Full update (nearly all get-methods are called. The model images and the capabilitites are refreshed only every 2 hours.)
  • updateType=2: Like updateType=0, but ignoring the nightly update reduction

• Nightly update reduction: If nightly reduction is activated and the current time is within the time frame between 22:00 and 05:00, then vehicle.update(0) performs a full update, if the last full update is more than 1700 seconds ago. If that's not the case, vehicle.update(0) does nothing.

• PyCupra can ask the Cupra/Seat portal to send push notifications to PyCupra if the charging status or the climatisation status has changed or when the API has finished a request like lock or unlock vehicle, start or stop charging or change departure timers or ....

• PyCupra read files from the EUDA portal of VW group, if the user has registered there and set up an ongoing data request. (This is still experimental.)

• As the API no longer provides the complete tripstatistics history, PyCupra builds its own history and stores it in the pycupra_data folder.

Thanks to

• RobinostLund for initial project for Volkswagen Carnet I was able to fork
• Farfar for modifications related to electric engines
• tanelvakker for modifications related to correct SPIN handling for various actions and using correct URLs also for MY2021
• sdb9696 for the firebase-messaging package that is used in PyCupra with only minor modifications

Example

For an extensive example, please use the code found in example/PyCupra.py. Use the doLogin method, and it will sign in with the credentials used for the class constructor. After a successful login, the tokens are stored in a json file. Later doLogin calls can use the token file instead of the credentials. When logged in, the method get_vehicles will fetch vehicle basic information and create Vehicle class objects for all associated vehicles in account. To update all available data use the update_all method of the Connect class. This will call the update function for all registered vehicles, which in turn will fetch data from all available API endpoints.

The file pycupra_credentials.json.demo explains the data structure of the credentials file.
