# Home Assistant Add-on: TeslaMate
A self-hosted data logger for your Tesla 🚘
## About
[TeslaMate][teslamate] is a powerful, self-hosted data logger for your Tesla.
- Written in **[Elixir][elixir]**
- Data is stored in a **Postgres** database
- Visualization and data analysis with **Grafana**
- Vehicle data is published to a local **MQTT** Broker
This add-on allows you to run [TeslaMate][teslamate] on your Home Assistant server based on the the official TeslaMate [docker image][docker].
This add-on is a fork of the unmaintained add-on at <https://github.com/matt-FFFFFF/hassio-addon-teslamate>.
Thanks to @matt-FFFFFF for maintaining this add-on in the past.

## Requirements
TeslaMate needs a PostgreSQL database.
All development and testing has been done using [PostgreSQL add-on][postgres] for convenience but you're welcome to use your own.
For convenience, my [add-ons repository][addons-repo] includes configuration that points to the [PostgreSQL add-on][postgres] so you can install everything from one repo.
To get the full experience, it is recommended that you also install the community [Grafana add-on][grafana-addon] and [MQTT integration][mqtt].
## Installation
1. Add my [add-ons repository][addons-repo] to Home Assistant or click the button below to open my add-on repository on your Home Assistant instance.
[![Open add-on repo on your Home Assistant instance][repo-btn]][addon]
1. Install this add-on.
1. Install the PostgreSQL add-on and configure and start it, if you wish to use this add-on. The database name isn't important here as the TeslaMate add-on will create the database you name in the settings if it doesn't exist.
1. Configure Grafana as detailed in this add-on's documentation.
1. Enter your PostgreSQL configuration information.
1. Enter your Grafana configuration information.
1. Enter your MQTT configuration information.
1. Click the `Save` button to store your configuration.
1. Start the add-on.
1. Check the logs of the add-on to see if everything went well.
1. Click the `OPEN WEB UI` button to open TeslaMate.
## Migrating to this version of the add-on
Migrating to this version of the add-on should not result in any loss of data, but you can never be too careful, so I recommend you take a full backup of your Home Assistant instance and also a direct backup of the TeslaMate database as detailed in the [TeslaMate documentation][teslamate-backup] before proceeding.
To migrate:
1. Install this version of the TeslaMate add-on as per the details above. Keep your current version installed for now.
1. Open the old add-on configuration options.
1. Click the three dots at the top and select "Edit in YAML".
1. Highlight and copy all the options.
1. Open this add-on's configuration options.
1. Click the three dots at the top and select "Edit in YAML".
1. Replace all content with the configuration copied above.
1. Stop the old add-on.
1. Start the new add-on.
1. Verify everything is working as before and uninstall the old add-on.
Everything should pick up where it was before.
