A Tado API client for Node
Based on the work of SCPhillips on his blog
Please note: This is based on reverse engineering the Tado Web App's API and hence may be unstable
DEPRECATION notice: The Zone Overlay API calls are being deprecated, see below for further information
// Import the Tado client
const { Tado } = require("node-tado-client");
// Create a new Tado instance
var tado = new Tado();
// Login to the Tado Web API
tado.login("username", "password").then(() => {
tado.getMe().then((resp) => {
console.log(resp);
});
});
// Get the User's information
This call will return something similar to the following Javascript object.
{
"name": "John Doe",
"email": "john_doe@gmail.com",
"username": "john_doe",
"id": "523acf000089",

The setZoneOverlay
and clearZoneOverlay
methods have been deprecated in favour of setZoneOverlays
and clearZoneOverlays
respectively.
The setZoneOverlays
method takes an array of overlays
in the form of
{
zone_id: 123, # Required
power: "ON", # HEATING and AC
temperature: { # HEATING and AC
celsius: 24,
fahrenheit: 75.2
},
mode: "HEAT", # AC only
fanLevel: "LEVEL1", # AC only
verticalSwing: "OFF", # AC only
horizontalSwing: "OFF", # AC only
light: "OFF", # AC only
}
It is not required to use upper case in the values, the library will convert the strings for you. It is also not required to supply both celsius and fahrenheit, the Tado API is able to convert for you.
The termination
argument should be one of the following:
- A positive integer - this will be interpreted as the number of seconds to set the overlay for
- "auto" - this will put the overlay into "TADO_MODE"
- Note: This uses the default termination type set on the zone
- "next_time_block" - overlay until the next scheduled event
- Anything else - the overlay will exist indefinitely and will need manually clearing
The setPresence
method call takes the following arguments
- presence - home, away or auto
Documentation of deprecated methods
The setZoneOverlay
method call takes the following arguments
Note: It will automatically determine the type of system that it is affecting
- power - on or off (case insensitive) [default: off]
- temperature - Integer temperature in Celsius, if affecting a HEATING system
- termination - Integer , auto, next_time_block, or manual (case insensitive, integer denotes a timer in seconds) [default: manual]
