With an Android Phone, the Torque App (I’ve only tested with Torque Pro, but I think it’ll work with Torque Lite) and a OBD2 Bluetooth/Wifi Adapter, you can get data about your car (speed, location, coolant temperature, odometer reading, etc, etc) into MQTT and Home Assistant.
The Home Assistant Torque component didn’t work well for me. So, I created torque2mqtt:
It’s a simple Python Service that can be used as a Torque Web Endpoint. It publishes your Torque statistics to an MQTT topic.
I don’t think it REQUIRES Torque Pro, however, I’ve not tested at all with Torque Lite. So if you try it with Lite, please let me know if it works.
This is a first pass implementation, so unit conversion and other such “nice things” need to be handled with Template Sensors. By default, all Torque units are metric and, therefore, all the metrics published will be in metric units.
This implementation has no security, authentication, verification, or conversion. Pull Requests are quite welcome, however.
Installation can be handled via git clone and run or, much easier, docker.
