Trigger an event using Node-Red

Hi to all, I've been playing around with "rules" to trigger an event within ESP8266. Although I can get the rule to trigger by sending the following URL, I can't work out what I should do in Node-Red to achieve the same result. http://192.168.1.31/control?cmd=event,triggerme I've pulled ou...

Thanks again for all your help.

Regards, David

OpenHAB MQTT option missing

Hi to all,
I've just tried updating some of my ESP8266-based nodes to V2.0.0-dev7 and discovered that the OpenHAB MQTT option is missing in the Controllers menu.

I've checked all the versions from V2.0.0-dev4 and they all seem to have OpenHAB missing.

Kind regards from David.

Re: Hello from Switzerland

Hi to Luca, I've just joined the forum after discovering ESP Easy - great piece of software/tools. Are you still using Node-Red as that is my current platform (running on a Raspberry Pi) ? I've managed to get a few ESP8266-based nodes (i.e. Witty and WeMos) running with MQTT and Node-Red The one tha...
