Smartcar Rust SDK

Rust crate for Smartcar API

Overview

Smartcar API lets you read vehicle data and send commands to vehicles (lock, unlock) using HTTP requests.

To make requests to a vehicle from a web or mobile application, the end user must connect their vehicle using Smartcar Connect. This flow follows the OAuth spec and will return a code which can be used to obtain an access token from Smartcar.

The Smartcar Rust SDK provides methods to:

1. Generate the link to redirect to Connect.
2. Make a request to Smartcar with the code obtained from Connect to obtain an access and refresh token
3. Make requests to the Smartcar API to read vehicle data and send commands to vehicles using the access token obtained in step 2.

Before integrating with Smartcar's SDK, you'll need to register an application in the Smartcar Developer portal. If you do not have access to the dashboard, please request access.

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies] smartcar = "0.1.3"

Flow

• Create a new AuthClient struct with your client_id, client_secret, and redirect_uri.
• Redirect the user to Smartcar Connect using <AuthClient>.get_auth_url with required scope or with one of our frontend SDKs.
• The user will login, and then accept or deny your scope's permissions.
• Handle the get request to your redirect_uri.
  • If the user accepted your permissions:
  • Use <AuthClient>.exchange_code with this code to obtain an access struct. This struct contains an access token (lasting 2 hours) and a refresh token (lasting 60 days).
    • (Save this access struct)
• Get the user's vehicles with get_vehicles.
• Create a new vehicle struct using an d from the previous response, and the access_token.
• Make requests to the Smartcar API.
• Use <AuthClient>.exchange_refresh_token on your saved refresh_token to retrieve a new token when your accessToken expires.

Getting Started

The following code is in /examples. To run the code, replace the fake Smartcar credentials in get_auth_client with your own and run this command:

cargo run --example=getting-started

```rust use axum::extract::Query; use axum::http::StatusCode; use axum::response::{IntoResponse, Redirect}; use axum::Json; use axum::{routing::get, Router}; use serde::Deserialize; use serde_json::json;

use smartcar; use smartcar::response::{Meta, VehicleAttributes}; use smartcar::vehicle::Vehicle; use smartcar::{Permission, ScopeBuilder};

[tokio::main]

async fn main() { let app = Router::new() .route("/login", get(login)) .route("/callback", get(callback));

// run on localhost:3000
axum::Server::bind(&"0.0.0.0:3000".parse().unwrap())
    .serve(app.into_make_service())
    .await
    .unwrap();

}

/// Helper for creating an Auth Client instance with your credentials fn getauthclient() -> smartcar::authclient::AuthClient { smartcar::authclient::AuthClient::new( "REPLACE-WITH-YOUR-SMARTCAR-CLIENT-ID", "REPLACE-WITH-YOUR-SMARTCAR-CLIENT-SECRET", "REPLACE-WITH-YOUR-SMARTCAR-REDIRECT-URI.COM", true, ) }

/// Redirect to Smartcar Connect async fn login() -> Redirect { let scope = ScopeBuilder::new().addpermission(Permission::ReadVehicleInfo); let link = getauthclient().getauth_url(&scope, None);

println!("URL your user will go to:\n\n{}", link);
Redirect::to(&link)

}

/// The potential query codes after user goes through Smartcar Connect

[derive(Deserialize)]

struct Callback { code: Option, error: Option, }

// Handle Smartcar callback with auth code

[axummacros::debughandler]

async fn callback(q: Query) -> impl IntoResponse { // If user denies you access, you'll see this if let Some() = &q.error { return ( StatusCode::EXPECTATIONFAILED, Json(json!("User delined during Smartcar Connect")), ); };

let code = &q.code.to_owned().unwrap();
let res = get_attributes(code.as_str()).await;

match res {
    Err(_) => {
        return (
            StatusCode::EXPECTATION_FAILED,
            Json(json!("attributes request failed")),
        )
    }
    Ok((attributes, meta)) => {
        println!("Information about the request itself:\n\n{:#?}", meta);
        println!("Vehicle's id, make, model, year:\n\n{:#?}", attributes);

        (
            StatusCode::OK,
            Json(json!(attributes)), // please help me make this better... lol
        )
    }
}

}

async fn getattributes( authcode: &str, ) -> Result<(VehicleAttributes, Meta), smartcar::error::Error> { let client = getauthclient();

// Exchange auth code for an access struct (that has tokens)
let (access, _) = client.exchange_code(auth_code).await?;

// Get the user's vehicles
let (vehicle_ids, _) = smartcar::get_vehicles(&access, None, None).await?;

// For the sake of this example, just use the first vehicle
let vehicle = Vehicle::new(&vehicle_ids.vehicles[0], &access.access_token);

// Get the vehicle's attributes (make/model/year)
let (attributes, meta) = vehicle.attributes().await?;

Ok((attributes, meta))

} ```
