# Volvo2Mqtt
This component establishes a connection between the newer AAOS Volvo cars and Home Assistant via MQTT.
Maybe this component works also with other Volvo cars. Please try out the native Volvo [integration](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/volvooncall/) before using this component! If the native component doesn't work for your car, try this mqtt bridge.
## Setup
Just install this addon with the following command.
Please note to fill in your settings inside the environment variables.
`docker run -e CONF_updateInterval=300 -e CONF_babelLocale='de' -e CONF_mqtt='@json {"broker": "", "username": "", "password": ""}' -e CONF_volvoData='@json {"username": "", "password": "", "vin": "", "vccapikey": ""}' -e TZ='Europe/Berlin' --name volvo2mqtt ghcr.io/dielee/volvo2mqtt:latest`
