const (
	clientID     = "enter_your_client_id>"

)

func main() {
	config := mothistory.ClientConfig{
		ClientID:     clientID,
		ClientSecret: clientSecret,
		APIKey:       apiKey,
	}
	client := mothistory.NewClient(config, nil)

	// Get data by registration
	data, err := client.GetByRegistration("ML58FOU")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to get data by registration: %v", err)
	}
	printJSON(data)

	// Get data by VIN
	data, err = client.GetByVIN("AISXXXTEST1239617")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to get data by VIN: %v", err)
	}
	printJSON(data)

	// Get bulk download data
	data, err = client.GetBulkDownload()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to get bulk download data: %v", err)
	}
	printJSON(data)

	// Renew credentials
	data, err = client.RenewCredentials(apiKey, "firstname.lastname@example.com")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to renew credentials: %v", err)
	}
	printJSON(data)
}

func printJSON(data json.RawMessage) {
	var prettyJSON map[string]interface{}
	err := json.Unmarshal(data, &prettyJSON)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("failed to parse JSON: %v", err)
	}

	prettyData, err := json.MarshalIndent(prettyJSON, "", "  ")
