New Tyre label requirements from May 2021 #1

Closed aclDeveloper closed 3 years ago

aclDeveloper commented 3 years ago

Effective May 2021 a new version of the tyre label will be mandatory.

Are there any plans of implementing the required changes?

arkq commented 3 years ago

I've got no plans of updating it (to be honest I was not aware that there will be a new label requirement). I've been not using it since the time I've created it. But since someone is still using this project (I was not aware of that as well) I might try to update it with the new spec - it should not be hard (the hardest part is to get SVG file with all pictograms and texts).

I've updated the code a little bit, now it can generate EU/2020/740 labels as well. It's not finished yet (it misses ~tire pictograms, and~ QR-code), but current version might be use as a beta for integration testing.

Usage (it will show all EU/2020/740 pictograms):

eu-tire-label --tire-class=1 --fuel-efficiency=B --wet-grip=E --rolling-noise=1 --rolling-noise-db=72 \
    --trademark=MICHELINE --tire-size="P215/65 R15" --tire-type=WINTER --ice-grip --snow-grip >tire-label.svg

Example (few fixes will be required): tire-label

EDIT: I've got one question though. Do you know where the QR-code link should point to? I'd like to see some real example how this EPREL database link should look like.

I've just pushed update which should cover EU/2020/740 regulation. I'm closing this issue. If you spot any errors, please do not hesitate to open a separate issue.
