tajniak81andClaude Opus 5 e138fad3f4 Anker: every charger on the account, not just the ones outside a station
get_user_bind_and_not_in_station_evchargers is the only list the connector ever
asked for, and its name says exactly what it withholds. A charger that belongs to
a system is not in it. Its userBindEvChargersCount, though, counts every charger
bound to the account — so an owner with two chargers in a system got "authenticated;
2 EV charger(s) bound to account" from the health probe and an empty list from the
capability that is supposed to show them. A working login that finds nothing.

So the capability now asks every view the cloud has and merges them by serial. The
standalone list still answers for chargers standing on their own; get_site_list
walks the systems and reads each one through get_scen_info, falling back to
get_system_running_info where that is silent — the power-service / HES split
charger-state already knows; and get_relate_and_bind_devices contributes model,
firmware and the Wi-Fi flag, and discovers anything in the A519 family that the
first two missed. Whichever way a charger was registered, one of the three has it.

The merge is first-writer-wins per field rather than last view overwriting: the
standalone record knows the name, the site record knows the live state, and neither
should blank what the other established. A view that fails is a warning on the
document instead of an error on the call, because one dead endpoint should not
cost the chargers the other two found. Only losing all three is a failure. When
nothing comes back at all the response says so in its own words and names the
remaining suspect — country picks the regional server, and the wrong one
authenticates happily and shows an empty account.

The other half of "not showing any chargers" was that neither client ever showed a
list. The serial was a text box, and the number is printed on a charger hanging on
a wall. Both apps now list what the account holds — name, serial, model, site,
state, an offline badge — and hand the serial to the OCPP control card instead of
asking anyone to go and read it. Where control is off the list still stands on its
own, as the answer to the first question an owner has after entering credentials.

DriverVault

A car control & service-tracking system (originally "Car Control Project"). Built incrementally — starting with a car maintenance tracker (modeled on Car Service.xlsx) and growing toward live integration with the car via a cellular ESP32 device and third-party services (Toyota Connected, EV chargers).

Architecture

All clients communicate with the database only through the API Server — nothing talks to PocketBase directly.

Features

  • Maintenance tracking — cars, service history (date/odometer + which parts were changed), and a per-car parts catalog, with next-due date/km status from the spreadsheet formulas.
  • Technical checks — the mandatory roadworthiness inspections (przegląd techniczny / MOT / TÜV): result, cost, station and the certificate's valid-until, which overrides the car's interval and drives the next-due date.
  • Maintenance log — workshop visits and repairs outside the routine schedule: type/status, workshop, parts used, labour + parts cost, invoice, warranty-until.
  • Fuel tracking — refills with derived efficiency (average / best / worst consumption, cost per km, price per litre). Consumption is measured between full tanks, so partial fills roll into the next full one.
  • Documents — insurance, registration, road tax and the rest, each with a server-computed renewal/expiry state.
  • Reminders — date- and/or odometer-triggered, one-off or recurring, plus read-only reminders the server derives from documents and service records.
  • Attachments — one optional file (PDF or image) per service record, technical check, maintenance entry, refill, document and part; fetched back through the API Server, never a public URL.
  • Accounts — PocketBase-token login, profile + appearance preferences (theme/locale/date format/currency/font), avatar, email verification, data export/import, and an account-deletion state machine.
  • Organizations & roles — multi-tenant user / admin / superadmin roles; admins manage users within their own organization, superadmins span all. Any user without an organization can create one and becomes its admin.
  • Per-user ownership & sharing — each car has an owner and can be shared with other users as read or write; the UI mirrors the server's access checks.
  • Integrations — per-user connectors under a superadmin → org-admin → user cascade. Built-in today: Toyota Connected (read-only vehicle data), the Anker Solix V1 EV charger and the Greencell HabuDen wallbox (read over the owner's own MQTT broker — no Greencell cloud is involved). Apprise joins them as a server-wide connector rather than a per-user one: it hands a message to an Apprise gateway the operator runs, which fans it out to any of the 100+ services Apprise speaks.
  • Cars from the manufacturer's own service — import a car straight off a connected account (MyToyota today), choosing what to pull in, and read everything that service knows about it from a dedicated first tab on the car. Generic over providers: the next manufacturer is one adapter in the API Server.
  • EV charging control — for Anker Solix chargers the API Server runs an OCPP 1.6J Central System; in own/proxy mode the charger dials back in and the owner can start/stop and set limits from the Charging screen.
  • Translated UI — the interface reads its text from per-language files (English, Polish, Danish today), with English as the fallback for any untranslated string. See TRANSLATIONS.md.
  • Phone biometric login & app lock — fingerprint / face sign-in with an app-lock that requires an unlock on relaunch. See the Phone App README.

Auth model

All apps share one auth model: authentication is PocketBase's own. POST /api/auth/login is proxied to the PocketBase users collection and the client keeps the token PocketBase minted — the API Server does not issue its own JWT. Every protected request carries Authorization: <token> (both Bearer <token> and a raw token are accepted) and the server re-resolves it against PocketBase on each call, so a role change or a deletion takes effect immediately. Tokens are stateless, so there is no per-device session list; changing an account's password rotates its token key and invalidates every token already issued. Access to cars/records is gated by per-user ownership and shares; user management requires the admin or superadmin role. Creating an organization is the one management action open to a plain user — it promotes them to admin of the organization they just created.

Domain (from Car Service.xlsx)

  • Cars — one per vehicle (was: one spreadsheet sheet), with spec fields (engine / transmission / differential oil, brake fluid, coolant, VIN, fuel type, build / first-registration dates, …) and configurable service intervals.
  • Service records — date + odometer per service, plus which parts were changed (oil & oil filter, engine air filter, cabin air filter).
  • Parts — per-car catalog of part numbers.

Key spreadsheet formulas, reproduced by the API Server on read:

Next Service Date = service date + serviceIntervalDays   (default 365; Excel: =A+365)
Next Service Km   = service km   + serviceIntervalKm      (default 15 000; Excel: =B+15000)

Intervals are configurable per car.

Getting started

Bring up the stack in this order — each app's README has the details:

  1. API Server — configure .env, run setup-pocketbase.mjs, start the server. This must be running for either app.
  2. Web Appnpm install && npm run dev (proxies /api to the server).
  3. Phone Appflutter build apk / flutter run with --dart-define=API_BASE=http://<server-ip>:8080/api.

Or skip all of that and bring the whole stack up with Docker, which runs the schema setup itself — see Docker (PocketBase + API Server + Web App as three containers) or Docker-AIO (all three in a single image).
