TeslaJS
An unofficial NodeJS library that encapsulates the Tesla RESTful API.
Note: If you are planning to purchase a Tesla you can get 1,000 miles of free supercharging using this referral link.
This library currently supports all existing Tesla vehicles.
First, it is important to acknowledge that there are already several very good Javascript libraries available for the Tesla. So why create another one? Rather than contribute to or modify one or more of the existing libraries, this library was created for two main reasons:
- The anticipated need for a few small but important features that existing libraries did not provide
- I was looking for a personal opportunity to learn more about the Tesla REST API, NodeJS, Express and Git/GitHub
Notable Features
With the introduction of the new OAuth-based owner API, one of the features I wanted was the ability to make API calls without having to login each time a new process was invoked. Many existing libraries require a login transaction
