homebridge-vw

Description

This homebridge plugin exposes a Fan (climatisation on/off) and a Lock (lock/unlock car) to Apple's HomeKit. It is advised to split the accessory into separate tiles (standard HomeKit functionality) and use a room with the name of the car for the two split accessories. Thanks to Trocotronic (https://github.com/trocotronic) for the WeConnect Python API.
