Tesla Automation Scheduler
Schedule tasks and commands to control your Tesla vehicle via the Tesla API. This is the extension that you wish the Tesla app included!
Overview
Have you ever wanted to ask your phone, Hey Siri, Set the temperature of the car to 20 degrees, or Start the climate at 8 AM? Or have you ever tried to turn on the climate control and had to wait for up to 30-seconds for your vehicle to wake up? If so, this is the app you need!
How It Works
The application listens for your requests. Once it receives your request, it sends it immediately or schedules it to the Tesla API.
Architecture
[TODO] 1 Terraform
Infrastructure-as-code to automate deployment and ensure that deployment is deterministic.
[TODO] 2 Kubernetes
Container orchestration to ensure application is highly available and self-healing.
- OpenSSL to generate self-signed cert
- Secrets Manager (store secrets like tesla auth token)
[TODO] 3 RabbitMQ/Amazon SQS
Message queue service that accepts user requests and distributes them to worker node. Also used for scheduling of requests.
[TODO] 4 Node.js Worker Node
This is the heart of the application. It is a stateless app that receives requests, determines if they should be scheduled, sends them to RabbitMQ, and makes API requests to Tesla
- Need to decrypt auth token from queue
- Send API requests to Tesla
Tesla API
- Get Access Token https://www.teslaapi.io/authentication/oauth
- actually, maybe have the token available cuz I don't wanna generate a new one each time
- Wake up https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/api/1/vehicles/:id/wake_up
- Set Temperature https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/api/1/vehicles:id/command/set_temps?driver_temp=:driver_temppassenger_temp=:passenger_temp
