# Volvo On Call

[![CI](https://github.com/molobrakos/volvooncall/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/molobrakos/volvooncall/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

Retrieve statistics about your Volvo from the Volvo On Call (VOC) online service
No licence, public domain, no guarantees, feel free to use for anything. Please contribute improvements/bugfixes etc.

Also contains an MQTT gateway for publishing information and bidirectional communication with e.g. Home Assistant.

## system requirements

 - At least python 3.10 or higher

> For contributors: The `pytype` project does not yet support Python 3.11, so you must use 3.10 to run tests locally.

## dependencies

To use just the API in `volvooncall.py` or the Home Assistant bindings in `dashboard.py`, simply install the package as
usual with pip:

```sh
pip install volvooncall
```

To use console features (i.e. the `voc` command documented below):

```sh
pip install volvooncall[console]
```

To use MQTT features:

```sh
pip install volvooncall[mqtt]
```
 
## how to use
