⚠️ olderCanada and olderUSA support may break at anytime because Nissan keep changing the API key. Thank you Nissan for working against your customers.
⚠️ If you're not using the Leaf frequently, stop the container or drastically reduce the update frequency, or you could well end up with a flat 12V battery.
This works for my Canadian made in 2018 LEAF 40kWh. It was also reported to be working on a newer than May 2019 Leaf.
You must have a working MQTT broker on your LAN.
Should work with multiple Leafs, but it is untested. Please open an issue with feedback if possible.

You can use pre-built images from here: https://hub.docker.com/r/kamikac/leaf2mqtt
tag example: kamikac/leaf2mqtt:latest
docker build --tag leaf2mqtt .
-- OR --
cp local_settings.env.tmpl local_settings.env
docker-compose build
| Parameter | Optional | Description |
|---|---|---|
| LEAF_USERNAME | No | Your NissanConnect username |
| LEAF_PASSWORD | No | Your NissanConnect password |
| LEAF_TYPE | No | newerThanMay2019, olderCanada, olderUSA, olderEurope, olderAustralia or olderJapan |
| MQTT_HOST | No | IP or hostname of your mqtt broker. Localhost or 127.0.0.1 will not work when using Docker, use real host LAN ip |
| MQTT_PORT | Yes | Port of your mqtt broker. Default is 1883 |
| MQTT_USERNAME | Yes | Your mqtt username |
| MQTT_PASSWORD | Yes | Your mqtt password |
| MQTT_BASE_TOPIC | Yes | The root MQTT topic for leaf2mqtt. Default is "leaf" |
| UPDATE_INTERVAL_MINUTES | Yes | Time between automatic status refresh. Default is 60 |
| CHARGING_UPDATE_INTERVAL_MINUTES* | Yes | Time between automatic status refresh when charging. Default is 15 |
| COMMAND_ATTEMPTS | Yes | Number of attempts for any command regardless of success or failure. Since some of the Nissan apis are unreliable, I recommend a value of 5. Default is 1. |
| LOG_LEVEL | Yes | The log verbosity used by leaf2mqtt. Default is "Warning" |
Example:
docker run --restart always -e LEAF_USERNAME="[email protected]" -e LEAF_PASSWORD="Some P4ssword!" -e LEAF_TYPE="newerThanMay2019" -e MQTT_HOST=192.168.1.111 -e UPDATE_INTERVAL_MINUTES=1440 -e COMMAND_ATTEMPTS=5 --name leaf2mqtt leaf2mqtt
-- OR --
Edit local_settings.env
docker-compose up -d
ℹ️* The CHARGING_UPDATE_INTERVAL_MINUTES value will only be used after the ongoing UPDATE_INTERVAL_MINUTES is elapsed and the Leaf is charging.
In these examples, the MQTT_BASE_TOPIC is set to the default (leaf).

ℹ️ The status and commands for the first Leaf in the account are also supported by using the same topic without the {vin}.
mqtt:

In Home Assistant, calling a script like this - service: script.some_script_name within another script or automation will actually stop the execution of the calling script until script.some_script_name terminates, unlike using script.turn_on. Knowing this, you can ensure you have the latest state for your leaf before continuing an automation using a script like this:
update_leaf_battery:
# Using queued will ensure you do not update twice at the same time and will prevent
# subsequent invocations from asking an update right away because of the while's conditions.
# All the callers will also wait for the result.
mode: queued
sequence:
- repeat:
while:
# Used with the sensors in the section above, this condition will
# ensure we continue until the states are really updated.
# It will also prevent subsequent calls from unnecessarily requesting
# an update before the current state is 10 minutes old.
- >
{{ as_timestamp(now()) -
as_timestamp(states('sensor.leaf_battery_last_updated')) > 600 }}
# We also stop the loop after 4 tries since Nissan servers can send the same
# old data many times in a row. I think this happens when the state did not really changed
# or the Leaf is unreachable.
- "{{ repeat.index <= 4 }}"
sequence:
# We publish the update command for the car.
# You can also ommit the VIN to target the first Leaf in the account.
# You can also request update for every state for one Leaf by removing the /battery section
- service: mqtt.publish
data:
topic: "leaf/XXXXXSOMEXVINXXXXX/command/battery"
payload: "update"
# We now wait until we actually have received a response or if we timed out.
# This does not mean that the received data is the latest. This is why
# we check sensor.leaf_battery_last_updated in the while condition.
- wait_for_trigger:
- platform: state

# Let's have a cool down to give time to Home Assistant to update all the states.

Once you configure and start application you can configure OpenHAB to get data for your Leaf. Example config file is here and documentation is here
