Hi,


Just to let everyone know that I have created an Open Vehicle Protocol LinkedIn group that everyone is welcome to join.


The OVP and group gives an opportunity to
contribute to making OVMS compliant with an OVP
develop and sell interfaces to manufactures to make them compliant with the minimum of effort
contribute to making OVP happen

Look forward to seeing some of you on the above group


Regards,
Rob

Robert,

The links Michael provided below are the best from OVMS side.


Each vehicle manufacturer has their own standard, and most are closed (only opened by reverse engineering, and at the whim of the manufacturers who could shut it down whenever they like).


Regards, Mark.

  Hi Robert,
 
 you can connect to an OVMS server through the client protocol (TCP) or via HTTP.
 
 See
 - https://github.com/openvehicles/Open-Vehicle-Monitoring-System/blob/master/docs/OVMS_Protocol.pdf
 and the perl clients for details and examples. The protocol supports telemetry, command execution, push notifications and more.
 
 The HTTP API lacks documentation, it supports telemetry up to now and it's been described here:
 - http://lists.teslaclub.hk/pipermail/ovmsdev/2013-February/000919.html
 - http://lists.teslaclub.hk/pipermail/ovmsdev/2013-March/000958.html
 
 ...and there's a simple JS client implementation over here:
 - http://www.openvehicles.com/simpleclient.htm
 
 To my knowledge there is no cooperation with any car manufacturer.
 I would be surprised if car manufacturers actually show interest in supporting unified or open APIs.
 
 Regards,
 Michael

 As always, after sending the email found some of what was required turned up.
 
 
 But I am still looking for the OVMS server API specification.
 
 
 For your information
   General APIs - https://developer.ibm.com/apimanagement/2014/10/31/whats-driving-apis-automotive
 Tesla - http://docs.timdorr.apiary.io/
 Nissan CarWings - www.npmjs.com/package/carwingsjs
 GM - https://developer.gm.com/documentation
 BMW i3 - https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2015/11/reverse-engineering-the-bmw-i3-api
  Because we need to access multiple car types, my vision is to find/develop a unified open API.  Is OVMS working with anyone along this line?
 
 
 Look forward to hearing any plans.

   Hi, 
 
 I am working on an EV route planning and navigation system that will need real time remote access to vehicle data.
 
 
 The most powerful approach would be to access all the different supported vehicles through a standard cloud base open api.  My initial Googling has not shown an existing API but I know OVMS has a server.
 
 
 Can anyone tell me
   the location of a OVMS API definition?
 any other standard APIs (similar to Open Charge Point Protocol but for cars)
  
 Thanks in advance.
