Use of DHL Account

[fabkai]

@fewieden thanks for that module.
Is it possible to store not only a tracking ID rather to register with a PostNr and E-Mail for DHL? So all packages would be displayed at the mirror.
I think there should be a possibility over the DHL API: https://entwickler.dhl.de/

Currently the module isn't using an API, it's just screen scraping

[fabkai]

Is it possible that you can implement this?

[fewieden]

Actually i'm pretty busy with my bachelor thesis, so i have no time for module enhancements. But feel free to create a pull request when you managed to implement this.

[fabkai]

Unfortunatly I have also no time to do that. Do you have time after your bachelor thesis?

[fewieden]

I planned to refactor the most popular modules I made, I will see if I will find time to do that, but to be honest this is not the highest priority to me.

I like the idea of tracking my parcels. But I would actually use it with my postID so that I get notified if a parcel is on the way without typing the ID in the config. So an API access to DHL would be great!

I looked for an API access the last weeks, but the only one I found was the one @fabkai mentioned above. There you need a developer account which is not paired to the private customer account. Also everyone has to go through an approval system which is more complex than just register for an API key.

@CFenner if you have an idea how to solve that in a different way I like to see your pr :)
