[Feature Request] teslamate widget

[a406877521]

Description

Testamate is a car data recorder that I hope can display the current status of the car.
https://github.com/teslamate-org/teslamate

But I couldn't find the API for testamate itself, so I need to use another open-source program, testamate API
https://github.com/tobiasehlert/teslamateapi

api：wake up;status;drives;logging

To display the current status of your car using Teslamate and Teslamate API, you will need to set up both Teslamate and Teslamate API. Teslamate is the data recorder that logs data from your Tesla vehicle, and Teslamate API provides a RESTful interface to access this data.

Here are the general steps you would need to follow:

1. Install and set up Teslamate following the instructions provided in the Teslamate documentation: https://docs.teslamate.org/docs/installation/docker

2. Once Teslamate is up and running, install and configure Teslamate API by following the instructions on the Teslamate API GitHub repository: https://github.com/tobiasehlert/teslamateapi

3. After setting up Teslamate API, you can use the provided endpoints to access data such as wake up, status, drives, and logging. The API endpoints will look something like this (replace your-teslamateapi-host with the actual host where Teslamate API is running):

   • Wake up: http://your-teslamateapi-host/api/car/wake_up
   • Status: http://your-teslamateapi-host/api/car/status
   • Drives: http://your-teslamateapi-host/api/car/drives
   • Logging: http://your-teslamateapi-host/api/car/logging

4. You can make HTTP GET requests to these endpoints to retrieve the data you need. Depending on your requirements, you may need to authenticate your requests using an API key or other authentication methods as specified in the Teslamate API documentation.

Please note that the exact API endpoints and how to use them will be detailed in the Teslamate API documentation. Make sure to review the documentation for any specific requirements or configurations needed to access the data from your Tesla vehicle.

If you need to integrate this data into a custom widget or application, you may need to write additional code to handle the API requests and display the data accordingly.

Having an issue, this is what i get:

[dnielso5]

Indenting is hard. got it fixed:

     - field: #success # needs to be YAML string or object
         data:
           status: odometer

Been trying to follow the thread and still can only see the "NaN" output for any field.

- TeslaMate:
    icon: teslamate
    href: <URL>
    server: my-docker
    container: TeslaMate
    widget:
      type: customapi
      url: http://<my-IP-address>:8080/api/v1/cars/1/status
      refreshInterval: 10000
      method: GET
      headers:
        x-authorization: Bearer <token I put into the TeslaMateAPI docker container's environmental variable>
      mappings:
        - field: odometer
          data:
            status: odometer
          label: Mi-LR
          format: number

When I refresh homepage, it just shows "NaN" with "Mi-LR" below it. If I try to indent the "data" entry below the "field" entry (similar to how @dnielso5 has with their fix), I get an error saying bed indentation of a mapping entry.

Any thoughts?

Hi, you have to make the right indentation

    mappings:
        - field:
            data:
              status: odometer
          label: Mi-LR
          format: number

I honestly thought I tried every combination of indentation before posting, but your solution did the trick! Thank you so much!

[pochacho99]

Thank you all for the guidance! I got mine to work. Is there any way to get more than 4 fields in a widget? Also, where can i find a list of all Teslamate fields i can pull from?

[ederstef]

Hi,
yes you can list the widget with display: list # optional, default to block / same indentation as mappings .

all endpoints ar descipde at https://github.com/tobiasehlert/teslamateapi
i use the endpoint http://your.ip.adress:8080/api/v1/cars/1/status go to the site and pick your mappings

[pochacho99]

Thank you so much, it's working great!
