Tesla API
This is a package for connecting to the Tesla API.
Usage for a vehicle
import asyncio
from tesla_api import TeslaApiClient
async def main():
async with TeslaApiClient('[email protected]', 'yourPassword') as client:
vehicles = await client.list_vehicles()
for v in vehicles:
print(v.vin)
await v.controls.flash_lights()
asyncio.run(main())Usage for Powerwall 2
import asyncio
from tesla_api import TeslaApiClient
async def main():
client = TeslaApiClient('[email protected]', 'yourPassword')
energy_sites = await client.list_energy_sites()
print("Number of energy sites = %d" % (len(energy_sites)))
assert(len(energy_sites)==1)
reserve = await energy_sites[0].get_backup_reserve_percent()
print("Backup reserve percent = %d" % (reserve))
print("Increment backup reserve percent")
await energy_sites[0].set_backup_reserve_percent(reserve+1)
await client.close()
asyncio.run(main())Reusing API tokens
To avoid needing to store login details, you can pass in a previous API token.
Each time a new API token is created (either from a new login, or by refreshing an
expired token), the on_new_token callback will be called.
async def save_token(token):
open("token_file", "w").write(token)
async def main():
email = password = token = None
try:
token = open("token_file").read()
except OSError:
email = input("Email> ")
password = input("Password> ")
client = TeslaApiClient(email, password, token, on_new_token=save_token)
...If you only want to verify and save a user's token for later use,
you could use the authenticate() method:
async def main():
async with TeslaApiClient(email, password, on_new_token=save_token) as client:
await client.authenticate()
