MODELpY 0.1.0b0

Communicate with Tesla's official API

MODELpY

An unofficial Python library for Tesla's official Fleet API.

Supported Functionality

• Authentication
• Fleet Configuration
• Vehicle Endpoints
• Vehicle Commands
• Charging Endpoints
• Energy Endpoints
• User Endpoints
• Partner Endpoints

Features

• Automatically refreshes your token to avoid your code failing after an extended period of time
• All that is needed to start interacting with your Tesla products is a client ID and a refresh token
• JSON responses are return as Models complete with typing
• Full JSON data is also accessible so new API functionality may be immediately supported

Usage

1. Get a hold of your client ID and refresh token
   • This is done by Creating an Application
   • I won't include setup instructions here, but TeslaMate makes it fairly painless
2. Import the TeslaService (and any other service you'll be using) from modelpy

   from modelpy import TeslaService
   from modelpy.vehicle import VehicleService
   

3. Instantiate the TeslaService for your client ID

   tesla = TeslaService("abcd1234-5678-9abc-defg-hijklmnopqrst")
   

4. Create your other services using the TeslaService

   vehicle_service = VehicleService(tesla)
   

5. Now you are ready to interact with the API endpoints

   from modelpy import TeslaService
   from modelpy.vehicle import VehicleService
   
   tesla = TeslaService("abcd1234-5678-9abc-defg-hijklmnopqrst")
   vehicle_service = VehicleService(tesla)
   print(vehicle_service.vehicle())
   

TODO

• Paginated results are not yet supported
• The North American servers are hardcoded in at the moment
• Encrypt stored token
• Use access tokens more and refresh tokens less

Caveats

• The vehicle subscription endpoints are not supported and will remain that way unless I discover additional documentation
• Your refresh token is stored in plaintext so anyone with access to your device could have full access to your account
• Many scenarios will remain untested as I cannot simulate Tesla's responses with my limited products
• Tesla's docs are sometimes inconsistent or seemingly mistyped, again I can only confirm that I have programmed to align with said documentation
