Feature Request: Add battery level for connected Cars

[Stroell]

It would be great if you could get the battery level of a connected Car (via PowerUps) as well.
Background: My car (Polestar) does not have an open API to get statistics, but connecting it to Tibber gives me at least the battery level.
Unfortunately, Tibber does not provide that data via the Developer API, but it is possible via the App API.

Here is some sample Java Script Code that I use currently to get the data from Tibber. It is far from perfect, but a good start.
I don´t know how long the requested tokens are valid. Requesting a new one every time the script runs is probably not necessary .

//Get Token from Tibber
var LoginUri = "https://app.tibber.com/login.credentials";
var output = "1";
var params = {
  "@type": "login",
  "email": "[email protected]",
  'password': '1234'};

//Using the request.post function to send a POST request with JSON data
request.post({
  url: LoginUri,
  json: params
}, function(error, response, body) {
  if (error) {
    console.error(error);
  } else {
    var TokenFromLogin = body.token;
    //console.log(TokenFromLogin);

    //Request Battery Status
    var uri = "https://app.tibber.com/v4/gql?query={me{homes{electricVehicles{lastSeen%0A%20 battery{percent}}}}}";
    var Token = TokenFromLogin;
    //Using the request.post function to send a POST request with a Bearer token
    request.post({
      url: uri,
      headers: {
        'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + Token
      }
    }, function(error, response, body) {
      if (error) {
        console.error(error);
        
      } else {
        //console.log(body);
        output = body;
        setState("0_userdata.0.Geräte.Polestar2.TibberResponse", output);
        
      }
    });
  }
});

First of all: congratulations to drive electric! :)

Best would be to have an Polestar Adapter like there is one for e.g. Tesla .... so, that's a pitty that this isn't possible.

The idea to get this data by a route over the Tibber server is nice.
I'll try your code with my wife's Skoda and we'll see if we could include this in the adapter.

[Stroell]

Thank you!
Just for reference, here is my documentation how I currently use it in ioBroker (German):

Would love to see it. Please have it in the back of your mind - possible that you have more than one car. @Stroell in your iobroker implementation it's allways the first car - you have to modify the script (a little bit) for a second car.

Up to now I didn't manage to link my wife's skoda to tibber - perhaps I'll try with the Tesla to have a test scenario for this addon

I'm facing a similar problem.
We drive a Nissan Leaf and it doesn't have a Tibber PowerUp.
But I have the SOC via the Nissan adapter in ioBroker.
I added the Leaf as “not integrated” in the Tibber app.
Here I have to enter the SOC manually.
Is there a way to send the SOC from ioBroker to Tibber via the Adapter?
Thanks for the help and the great adapter!

There`s nothing about car data in the Tibber API documentation

[hombach]

I don't see any possibilities to implement this - no data about connected cars in Tibber API. Also I don*t think that they wan't to have this implemented.
If someone could help here - please feel free to do so ;)

[hombach]

Still no news in Tibber API to implement anything about connections to cars - closing this thread

This is a snippet from a JS in IoBroker Forum:

function fetchData(token, callback) {
    const dataOptions = {
        uri: 'https://app.tibber.com/v4/gql',
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
            'Authorization': `Bearer ${token}`
        },
        json: {
            query: `
                {
                    me {
                        homes {
                            electricVehicles {
                                lastSeen
                                battery {
                                    percent
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            `
        }
    };

As you can see, there is a very easy implementation to fetch the SOC of a car from Tibber

[hombach]

Okay, I tried it. It works, but it prevents the car from sleeping... Tibber is probably doing something wrong there - I won't support it like this for now.

[kptkip]

Wow! Spooky!
I use it with my Polestar 2. There it doesn't do this.

Is this a tibber-car-adapter specific phenomenon?

[kptkip]

Would it be worth, implementing it with a feature-toggle in the instance-config? And a explicit remark?

So people can chose using it or not.
