did you check the firewall on you`re windows 7 machine, and verified that Mosquito is actually running?

Hi,
In the mqtt config you checked 'anonymous' and you also provide username/password.
When anonymous is checked, the username will not be send to the mqtt broker.
Can you check your broker config?

Can HS3 MQTT plugins manipulate strings Like On,Off,Away,Open,Close etc and convert them to numbers 1,2,3,4,5....and so on

Thanks

I have looked through everything, but can't seem to find it. Is there a way for an MQTT message to control a Homeseer device? Not a device that is a subscription, but instead a native device like a ZWave light switch. I see Homeseer sends out a topic like "/homeseer/78/value" with 0 for off and 255 for on. But, that topic doesn't seem to control it when it's sent from outside homeseer.

Thank You,

Dave

Is there a chance you'll add SSL/TLS support (ie port 8883) to the plugin?

Thanks,

SSL/tls support is on the feature list.
Currently I am busy with refactoring the implementation to make next steps more easy/testable, next I pick up this feature.

I would like to know the same thing. I can see the MQTT topics getting sent out and when I turn a lamp off and on the corresponding lamp in HASS turns off but when I do it in the opposite direction nothing happens. I get this in my HS log:


Sep-30 5:08:25 PM MQTT Info: Received MQTT topic: /homeseer/masterbedroom/desklamp payload: 0

Same here. I'd like to have a device connected to HomeSeer (like a fan, light switch, or something else) controllable from Home Assistant over MQTT without workarounds.

Interesting feature request, that already popped-up several times.
Makes Homeseer a bridge between MQTT and other protocols like z-wave.

It is on the feature list, but due to my limited time, what has a higher priority: TLS/SSL encryption support or this request to control HS devices via MQTT?

Hi!! first of all this is a great plugin, congratulations for your work...

I have simple question, is there a way to specify other port than the default 1883?? i have my mosquitto broker running on the 10350, is there a way to configure to get to this port?

Thanks a lot

Hi,

in the current version the port number cannot be changed. I plan to implement this together with the TLS/SSL support.

Hey guys,

Trying to get this plugin set up, but I'm struggling with the basics. I've got a Mosquito server set up, and I'm connected to it:

I can also see PINGREQ/PINGRESP in my Mosquito log.

I want to publish the value of some devices, but nothing seems to be sent at all from this plugin. Dont know what I'm doing wrong:
Image

In the log (with info-logging level) this is all I get:

Any idea how I can get it to publish values? I've also tried setting up an event to manually publish device value and custom topic, but nothing is sent.

Thanks!

Hi,

in the configuration I see that you connect anonymous to the MQTT broker, and you also supply username/password.

If the MQTT broker needs a username/password than uncheck the 'anonymous' flag.

I would prefer the ability to control HS devices via MQTT. The TLS/SSL support with port changing ability can come second. A lot of us would be able to use the plugin more regularly so we can give you more feedback. Thanks you.
