homebridge-porsche-taycan

All devices have a unique serial number

Rebranded the plugin to Porsche EV to attract both Porsche Taycan and Macan (MY25+) owners

• Improved error handling
• If your vehicle is in privacy mode the data will not be updated

🔋 Direct Charge functionality is now available as switch

The biggest update so far!

• 🔌 The Charger device is from now on alway a contact sensor
  (before you could choose between a contact sensor or occupancy sensor)
• ⚡ A new optional device is added: Charing Power. The Charging Power sensor shows the current charging power while charging. A lux sensor is used.
  E.g. 0 Lux means that your vehicle is not being charged. 10 Lux means that your vehicle is charging with a speed of 10KW/h
• 📍 A new optional occupancy device is added. Add the latitude and longitude of your home to the config and an occupancy sensor is exposed which reflects if your vehicle is located at home.
  Helpful when you want to setup automations that should only execute when the vehicle is at home)
• 🔋 (Beta) A new optional Direct Charge device
  Currently only available if you add " directChargeDevice: true " to your config by hand. Responses from Porsche Connect API are not robust yet, official support will be added later

Under the hood improvements:

• Your vehicles nickname is used in logs
• The plugin now removes unused accessories. Since all plugins got a new uuid, this works only for new setups. A new setup is recommended to remove all existing and unused accessories from cache. Simply remove the PorscheTaycan config from your config.json, restart Homebridge and add the config again.

• Add support for Macan EV (MY25 an newer)
• Drop support for Node 14 and Node 16. The plugin may still work, but future issues related to older Node versions will not be resolved
• "Direct Climatisation" is now called "Precool/heat" to be mimic the My Porsche experience

• Macan EV support
• Updated Porsche Connect dependancy for auth issues
