Official mqtt support

[am0n]

Dear forum,

I am awaiting the official mqtt support for some months now. I do not want to integrate external plugins for realizing it. PoltoS mentioned, that the official support will come soon. Does anyone have further insights? It is the last piece of the puzzle to go into a rollout at my site.

Thanks for (PoltoS, Team + community) for everything,

It is out in v3.2.0, which is already online, but will be officially announced on Monday I believe.

[am0n]

Great Thank you.

Does anyone know, if battery powered devices will provide their battery level to z-way which will transfer it to mqtt?

[PoltoS]

Current MQTTClient app does not transfer them, but you can change this or make a CodeDevice that shows battery info. And it will be transmitted to MQTT automatically.

Thanks - I will try. I also was stuck on 3.1.4 because the release was not public until now.

I am not able to add the MQTTClient app.

I got the following error message:

Code: Select all

I added mosquitto-client as raspbian package - no luck. Do I need to install any additional modules / libraries?

Thanks in advance.

[PoltoS]

Make sure yo use Z-Way v3.2.0.

And make sure to check during Z-Way start (do it manually) that it does not complain on missing libraries

Any plans to add home-assistants mqtt discovery support?
Some info here:

Thanks PoltoS.

I had an "old" version of libmosquitto.so.1 in the current Rasbian, Buster Release.

I took the one in the application directory.

Now it works
