TeslaSwift

Swift library to access Tesla API based on Tesla JSON API (Unofficial) and Tesla Fleet API

Installation

Swift Package Manager

You can use Swift Package Manager and specify a dependency in Package.swift by adding this or adding the dependency to Xcode:

.Package(url: "https://github.com/jonasman/TeslaSwift.git", majorVersion: 10)

There are also extensions for Combine TeslaSwiftCombine

The Streaming extensions are: TeslaSwiftStreaming, Combine TeslaSwiftStreamingCombine

Tesla API

There are 2 Tesla APIs available:

1. The old owner API
2. The new Fleet API

You can choose any of them. If you want to use FleetAPI, initialize the library with a region, clientId, clientSecret and redirectURI

App registration for the Fleet API

To use the new Fleet API, you will need to register your app.

Follow the steps on the official documentation:

1. Create a private/public key and upload the public key to a website
2. Make a new app at Tesla Developer
3. Get a partner token (using this Library)
4. Register your app (using this Library)

This library helps you get a partner token and register your app with 2 APIs:

getPartnerToken()
registerApp(domain: String)

Usage

Tesla's server is not compatible with ATS so you need to add the following to your app Info.plist

<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
<dict>
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key>
    <true/>
</dict>

Import the module

import TeslaSwift

Add the extension modules if needed (with the previous line)

import TeslaSwiftCombine

Perform an authentication with your MyTesla credentials using the browser:

If you use deeplinks, add your callback URI scheme as a URL Scheme to your app under info -> URL Types

 if let url = api.authenticateWebNativeURL() {
    UIApplication.shared.open(url)
}
...

func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, options: [UIApplication.OpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:]) -> Bool {
    Task { @MainActor in
        do {
            _ = try await api.authenticateWebNative(url: url)
            // Notify your code the auth is done
        } catch {
            print("Error")
        }
    }        
    return true
}

Alternative method using a webview (this method does not have auto fill for email and MFA code) Perform an authentication with your MyTesla credentials using the web oAuth2 flow with MFA support:

let teslaAPI = ...
let api = TeslaSwift(teslaAPI: teslaAPI)
let (webloginViewController, result) = api.authenticateWeb()
guard let webloginViewController else { return }
present(webloginViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
Task { @MainActor in
        do {
             _ = try await result()
             self.messageLabel.text = "Authentication success"
        } catch let error {
            // error
       }
}

To to perform an authentication in SwiftUI, create an UIViewControllerRepresentable to inject the UIViewController into a SwiftUI view:

import TeslaSwift
import SwiftUI

struct TeslaWebLogin: UIViewControllerRepresentable {
    let teslaAPI = ...
    let api = TeslaSwift(teslaAPI: teslaAPI)    
    
    func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> TeslaWebLoginViewController {
        let (webloginViewController, result) = api.authenticateWeb()        
        Task { @MainActor in
                do {
                     _ = try await result()
                    print("Authentication success")                    
                    guard api.isAuthenticated else { return }
                    Task { @MainActor in
                        do {
                            let vehicles = try await api.getVehicles()

                            // post process your vehicles here

                        } catch {
                            print("Error",error)
                        }
                    }                    
                } catch let error {
                    print("Error", error)
               }
        }        
        return webloginViewController!
    }
    
    func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: TeslaWebLoginViewController, context: Context) {
    }
    
}

import SwiftUI
struct TeslaLogin: View {
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            TeslaWebLogin()
        }
    }
}

Public Key upload to vehicle

After authenticatiom, some vehicles might need to receive your public key.

if let url = api.urlToSendPublicKeyToVehicle(domain: yourDomain) {
    UIApplication.shared.open(url)
}

This will open the Tesla app and send the public key to the selected vehicle in the app.

Token reuse

After authentication, store the AuthToken in a safe place. The next time the app starts-up you can reuse the token:

let teslaAPI = ...
let api = TeslaSwift(teslaAPI: teslaAPI)
api.reuse(token: previousToken)

Vehicle data

Example on how to get a list of vehicles

class CarsViewController: ViewController {
    func showCars() {
      do {
        let response = try await api.getVehicles()
        self.data = response
        self.tableView.reloadData()
      } catch let error {
        //Process error
     }
}

Streaming

Import the module

import TeslaSwiftStreaming

Import the extension modules if needed (with the previous line)

import TeslaSwiftStreamingCombine

class CarsViewController: ViewController {

  func showStream() {
    stream = TeslaStreaming(teslaSwift: api)
    do {
        for try await event in try await stream.openStream(vehicle: myVehicle) {
            switch event {
                case .open:
                    // Open
                case .event(let streamEvent):
                    self.data.append(streamEvent)
                    self.tableView.reloadData()
                case .error(let error):                    
                    // Process error
                case .disconnet:
                    break
            }
        }
    } catch let error {
    // error
    }

    // After some events...
    stream.closeStream()
   }
}

Encoder and Decoder

If you need a JSON Encoder and Decoder, the library provides both already configured to be used with Tesla's JSON formats

public let teslaJSONEncoder: JSONEncoder
public let teslaJSONDecoder: JSONDecoder

Options

You can enable debugging by setting: api.debuggingEnabled = true Debug logs use Unified Logging and can be found by filtering for subsystem: Tesla Swift

Other Features

After the authentication is done, the library will manage the access token. When the token expires the library will request a new token using the refresh token.
