# TeslaMate Discovery
If you're a fan of the very excellent [TeslaMate][tm] and use it with [Home Assistant][ha], then this project is for you!
The TeslaMate + Home Assistant [integration documentation][tmha] shows a very long, manual configuration of each of the entities that TeslaMate sends messages for. While this works quite well (I used it for years) it has some shortcomings, the biggest of which is that they aren't all collected under a single [Home Assistant Device][had]. Unfortunately, devices cannot be created using purely manual end-user configuration, they can only be added with [MQTT Discovery][hamd] or a dedicated integration.
This application replaces most, if not all, of the documented TeslaMate + Home Assistant integration. In a single command, it synthesizes and publishes the MQTT Discovery configuration for commonly used entities converted to desired units and a `device_tracker` with precise coordinates that can also determine if the car is home (any geofence with "Home" in it).

# Pre-requisites
The application assumes that you have a healthy TeslaMate installation sending messages to a [Mosquitto MQTT broker][mos] and that Home Assistant can see those messages. The only other requirement is to have an account that can read messages from the `/teslamate/#` topic tree and send messages to the `/homeassistant/#` topic tree. This is often done by configuring `/share/mosquitto/accesscontrollist` as in the following example:
```plain
user homeassistant
topic readwrite homeassistant/#
topic read teslamate/#
user teslamate
topic write teslamate/#
user teslamate-discovery
topic write homeassistant/#
topic read teslamate/#
```

# Installation
To install the application, navigate to the [Releases][r] page for the project and download the appropriate Asset for the platform you'll be running on (e.g. `teslamate-discovery_2.0.2_Darwin_all.tar.gz` for macOS). Unzip the package and within it you'll find the `teslamate-discovery` binary that you'll run.
