Choose Settings on the left menu, click Devices & Services, and choose Configure in the Mosquitto broker tile. Defaults to true. topic_prefix if you have specified it manually. You can use that to connect to other services like node red just fine. Available for free at home-assistant.io, Press J to jump to the feed. The automation snipped I posted earlier allows me to do this and I can live with this approach, albeit its not an optimal one. If I do it your way then the following would happen: When I push the same botton on my remote control severall times then only the first pressing is detected because the state would be on after the first pushing and it wouldnt change if I pushed the button again. I also use a MQTT to IR device have a look at my scripts examples: For the HTTP have a look at https://home-assistant.io/components/rest_command/. To get this fingerprint, first put the broker and port options in the configuration and Second, when you try to publish a message, do you use username and password? discovery_retain (Optional, boolean): Whether to retain MQTT discovery in your Home Assistant configuration with the following: And that should already be it All devices defined through ESPHome should show up automatically Second, when you try to publish a message, do you use username and password? update the fingerprints variable. MQTT device triggeropen in new window is the recommended way to respond to button clicks. Set the verification of the server hostname in the server certificate. /status with payload online, and will tell the Publish an MQTT message on a topic using this action in automations. Entries supported by the frontend: button_short_press, button_short_release, button_long_press, button_long_release, button_double_press, button_triple_press, button_quadruple_press, button_quintuple_press. Defaults to false. Powered by Discourse, best viewed with JavaScript enabled. The servers CA certificate is required to validate the connection. MQTT sensor msg dont need to be in json, take a look at the MQTT sensor docs https://home-assistant.io/components/sensor.mqtt/ the very last example of the brightness isnt in json. topic (Required, string): The MQTT topic to publish the message. If true publishing the message happens from the internal mqtt task. making it easier to distinguish the entities in various entity lists. Service Instructions on how to setup MQTT within Home Assistant. Home Assistant is open source home automation that puts local control and privacy first. Only thing you could do (to get at lease some visual representation in the UI) is to create a MQTT Binary Sensor for the MQTT push button. Has to be unique on the server. No way around it. See MQTT Switch for example. That way, you can use your existing wildcards like sent to the device should be retained or not. The Mosquitto project runs a public broker. See Last Will And Birth Messages for more information. Default derived from password (Optional, string): The password to use for Then I can use an automation for when the sensor detects one of the desire codes to do whatever I want. If you are connecting to Home Assistant, you may prefer to use the native API, I am quite new to HA and I am struggling with the best way to model manual remote controls. For example a serial number. This is used to show device topology in Home Assistant. Basically, you can access elements by typing x["THE_KEY"] and save them into local variables. My cloud mq server is running SSL for external traffic. Question : Is it possible to change the password? I do agree bridging is probably the best option. Path to the certificate file, e.g., /ssl/server.crt. shutdown_message (Optional, MQTTMessage): The message to send when If you experience an error message like Failed to connect due to exception: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed, then add certificate: auto to your broker configuration and restart Home Assistant. To use the message content, use a lambda And now I am trying to find the right way to write automations that convert these external button pushes (which enter ha via mqtt and http) into ha events.But I am really strugging with the documentation on event actions and the questions if event data should be json. will_message (Optional, MQTTMessage): The message to send when With this configuration option you can write complex automations whenever an MQTT Ive to use a username and a password? Defaults to false. I have a bunch of native Home Assistant entities such as Trdfri and zwave switches which I would like to occasionally remote control via MQTT by sending an appropriate message. Defaults to 15min. All other features of ESPHome on_json_message (Optional, Automation): An action to be Discovery topic: homeassistant/device_automation/0x90fd9ffffedf1266/action_arrow_left_click/config, Trigger topic: zigbee2mqtt/0x90fd9ffffedf1266/action, Discovery topic: homeassistant/device_automation/0x90fd9ffffedf1266/action_arrow_right_click/config, The MQTT Device Trigger integration was introduced in Home Assistant 0.106, A link to the webpage that can manage the configuration of this device. availability (Optional): Manually set what should be sent to to the broker is dropped. Home Assistant contains a WebSocket API. still appearing in Home Assistants front-end. You havent said what type of system youre running, or which MQTT software you use, but it might be possible for you to make your own simple MQTT bridge by piping the output of an MQTT subscriber client into a publisher client. to use. A list of connections of the device to the outside world as a list of tuples [connection_type, connection_identifier]. Lets say I have a physical push button which will send an MQTT message to a pre-configured topic with a payload of either ON or OFF. address of your device to it. message on a specific topic is received. Here I used the mqtt sensor to listen to these messages and change its state accordingly. So, it doesnt work on my installation. to the broker is established. This allows Zigbee2MQTT to automatically add devices to Home Assistant. My first question is: Is it a good idea to convert the incoming stuff into events with a json formatted payload? Note that I enumerate state changes from on to off and vice versa explicitely to avoid states not resulting in switch.turn_off or switch.turn_on (like unavailable). Note irony. remove the api: line from your ESPHome configuration, otherwise the ESP will of the JSON message. If you only plan to use this and want to disable the Via Home Assistant entity integration below, set homeassistant: {legacy_triggers: false} (see Configuration for more info). discovery (Optional, boolean): Manually enable/disable Home Assistant generates entity names for all discovered devices based on entity type and There is an issue with the RabbitMQ MQTT Plugin which breaks MQTT message retention. The easiest way to integrate Zigbee2MQTT with Home Assistant is by using MQTT discoveryopen in new window. birth_message (Optional, MQTTMessage): The message to send when multiple devices use the same name for a sensor, making it harder to distinguish between Doing the steps here will enable ssl. To change the settings, click on Configure in the integration page in the UI, then Re-configure MQTT. the node shuts down and the connection is closed cleanly. That is one reason why i had the idea that it would be a better idea to model external events like the pushing of a button as ha events. Additionally, SHA1 is known to be partially insecure The maximum QoS level to be used when receiving messages. Assistant restart. A list of IDs that uniquely identify the device. If set to an unsupported value, will render as subtype type, e.g. Defaults to I'm a believer in Encrypt Everything. as seen below. Home Assistant 2021.12 allows MQTT devices to change Is there anyway in HA (I'm using HassOS) that I can subscribe to my remote broker instead of running one internally? Why cant just turn the switch off in the automation and set a count up to count the number of times it beening press then after a minute reset the count back to 0, Dont ask how to do only been for a couple months lol, Powered by Discourse, best viewed with JavaScript enabled, https://home-assistant.io/components/script/, https://home-assistant.io/components/rest_command/, https://home-assistant.io/components/sensor.mqtt/. It also makes it possible to show which entities belong to which device. that are different from each other, availability reporting will be (like availability) should still work correctly. a connection to the broker is established. If this would work then it would match my requirement to eliminate the need to hand-craft automation scripts for every device. to have Home Assistant discover your devices on restart, all discovery The MQTT device triggers are discovered by Zigbee2MQTT once the event is triggered on the device at least once. Please note that its a good idea to check if the key exists in the Json Object by calling To my knowledge its discovery feature cannot be used to control home-assistant native entities. What I've done to make HA work with my remote MQTT broker is to setup the MQTT integration which then asked me for the MQTT host. If you need to be able to tell multiple topics apart, you probably need to configure your local MQTT broker as a proper bridge. I ended up just giving up and looking into how to set up a bridge with my local MQTT server. The most private option is running your own MQTT broker. Home Assistant. Service The type of the trigger, e.g. ///state. But this I will post as a seperate question. for more information. Without MQTT discovery, you need to create those entities by hand (configuration.yaml). This action can also be written in lambdas: Publish a JSON-formatted MQTT message on a topic using this action in automations. On the ESP8266 you have the option to use SSL connections for MQTT. The disadvantage is a delay (up to 1-2 seconds) until the messages are actually sent out. I cant see any hint in the documentation or code that the MQTT integration is supposed to support more than one broker. re-appear on every Home Assistant restart even though theyre in Defaults to homeassistant. Thanks for the idea.

If set to an unsupported value, will render as subtype type, e.g. The JSON message will be constructed using the ArduinoJson library. At least one of identifiers or connections must be present to identify the device. That's what I assumed I'd have to do. automatically be generated by using your node name and adding the MAC "YES" : "NO"; # {"key": 42.0, "greeting": "Hello World"}. Assistants MQTT discovery. Implementations in different languages: Actually, from your clarification thats the only thing you can do. button_1 spammed with type set to spammed and subtype set to button_1, The subtype of the trigger, e.g. Due to the way this trigger works internally it is incompatible with certain actions and will mac generator uses format --.

For testing I leave the unencrypted port open to localhost only. performed when a JSON message on a specific MQTT topic is received. Dont verify if the common name in the server certificate matches the value of broker. See Last Will And Birth Messages for more information. From system 2 my home assistant receives http post requests. MQTT broker settings are configured when the MQTT integration is first setup, and can be changed if needed. Here you can also prevent a device from being discovered.
