Python Plugin: Toyota

Hi all,
I have created a Python plugin that is able to retrieve the information from a Toyota car, when it is using the Toyota Connected Services. It is using the same API that is used by the Toyota MyT connected services app. This API is however only useable for cars that are purchased in Europe. For more information on Toyota MyT see:
https://www.toyota-europe.com/service-a ... toyota/myt
The Toyota car should first be made available in the MyT connected services app, after which the Toyota plugin can retrieve the information, which is then provided as several devices in Domoticz.
At this moment the following devices will be available in Domoticz:
- Mileage - Shows the daily and total mileage
- Fuel level - Shows actual fuel level percentage
- Distance to home - Shows the distance between the car and home
- Locked - Shows the locked / unlocked state of the car
- The devices that are provided by the Toyota plugin
- multiple_toyota_plugin_devices.png (40.5 KiB) Viewed 3578 times
The plugin and additional instructions on how it can be installed, can be found on:
https://github.com/joro75/Domoticz-Toyota-Plugin.
This is the initial (v0.8.0) release, but I plan to add additional devices in upcoming versions.
Any feedback or suggestions are appreciated.
Thansk, and with best regards,
John

Hello,
I tried to install this plugin to Domoticz but I got errors - see in the attachment.
Where is the issue?
Thank you for help.

Other question. I expect delivery of a new RAV4 PHEV in the next few weeks, and obviously would like to link it to my Domoticz.
Does anyone have experience using this plugin on a PHEV?

I installed the plugin, plus the required pytoyoda and geopy.
When I add the plugin to Domoticz, I get these errors:

Any clues as to what this means?

That the python arrow module also needs to be installed.
As the plugin has not been touched for years be prepared for some changes. Also you need a recent python version...

I tried to pip install arrow, but it comes back saying that has already been satisfied....

Did you try with sudo pip install? As that is known solution to solve module loading errors

tried that, no luck.
This morning I discovered there is a NodeRed module for Toyota support, I'll give that a try.

Just to report that I've succeeded in pulling a lot of information from my Toyota into Domoticz.
Starting point was pytoyoda, running on my R-Pi. I modified the example file to write the information into a json formatted file.
This file then triggers a flow in Node Red, which reads the file and pulls out the data elements I want.
These are then sent over to Domoticz.
It would have been nice to have a local Domoticz plugin, but once this solution runs it has the same result...

I tried to use the pytoyoda package to feed data to domoticz which sort of works, but it's not pretty, so I wrote an independent frontend for it

I plan on adding domoticz integration next using mqtt, but maybe someone wants to try this one and give input

No other errors found! Aside from these two typo's in the installation instruction, the setup went very smoothly.
I am impressed with this plugin!
Will be playing with it some more.
Already see one change request: in "historical data" the options are 7, 30 or 90 days. Could you add "all"?

Thanks for trying. I vibe coded this in less than 10h with Gemini 2.5pro. I'll add the "view all" this weekend.

Missing on the dashboard panel: battery level (%), and EV consumption (kWh/100).
Perhaps because the author has a hybrid, not a PHEV?
If you want, I can do the testing!

Yes, I have a hybrid. I was wondering if this will work with other types of cars. If you get me your logs, I can probably fix this.
