TeslaMateApi

TeslaMateApi is a RESTful API to get data collected by self-hosted data logger TeslaMate in JSON.

Written in Golang
Data is collected from TeslaMate Postgres database and local MQTT Broker
Endpoints return data in JSON format

How to use

You can either use it in a Docker container or go download the code and deploy it yourself on any server.

If you are using TeslaMate as Docker (version with Traefik as webserver) with environment variables file (.env), then you can simply add this section to the services: section of the docker-compose.yml file:

services:
  teslamateapi:
    image: tobiasehlert/teslamateapi:latest
    restart: always
    depends_on:
      - database
    environment:
      - DATABASE_USER=${TM_DB_USER}
      - DATABASE_PASS=${TM_DB_PASS}
      - DATABASE_NAME=${TM_DB_NAME}
      - DATABASE_HOST=database
      - MQTT_HOST=mosquitto
      - TZ=${TM_TZ}
    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.port=4002"
      - "traefik.http.middlewares.redirect.redirectscheme.scheme=https"
      - "traefik.http.middlewares.teslamate-auth.basicauth.realm=teslamateapi"
      - "traefik.http.middlewares.teslamate-auth.basicauth.usersfile=/auth/.htpasswd"
      - "traefik.http.routers.teslamateapi-insecure.rule=Host(`${FQDN_TM}`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.teslamateapi-insecure.middlewares=redirect"
      - "traefik.http.routers.teslamateapi.rule=Path(`/api`) || PathPrefix(`/api/`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.teslamateapi.entrypoints=websecure"
      - "traefik.http.routers.teslamateapi.middlewares=teslamate-auth"
      - "traefik.http.routers.teslamateapi.tls.certresolver=tmhttpchallenge"

In this case, the TeslaMateApi would be accessible at teslamate.example.com/api/

Environment variables

Basically the same environment variables for the database, mqqt and timezone need to be set for TeslaMateApi as you have for TeslaMate.

Required environment variables (even if there are some default values available)

DATABASE_USER string (default: teslamate)
DATABASE_PASS string (default: secret)
DATABASE_NAME string (default: teslamate)
DATABASE_HOST string (default: database)
MQTT_HOST string (default: mosquitto)
TZ string (default: Europe/Berlin)

Optional environment variables

DATABASE_PORT integer (default: 5432)
DATABASE_TIMEOUT integer (default: 60000)
DATABASE_SSL boolean (default: true)
DISABLE_MQTT boolean (default: false)
MQTT_TLS boolean (default: false)
MQTT_PORT integer (default: 1883 / default if TLS is true: 8883)

Security information

There is no possibility to get access to your Tesla account tokens by this API and we'll keep it this way!

The data that is accessible is data like the cars, charges, drives, current status, updates and global settings.

Also, apply some authentication on your webserver in front of the container, so your data is not unprotected. The example above, we use the same .htpasswd file as used my TeslaMate.
