EVENT call from MQTT

[leel1967l]

Hi,
I am building my first project integrating ESPEASY and OPENHAB2.

I would like to understand how I can send and event call from MQTT.
In other words, I would like to trigger a rule from MQTT.

I know how it can be done using http: http://<espeasyip>/control?cmd=event,remoteTimerControl=5
But I need to do in MQTT.

How can this be achieved?

thanks

Hi @grovkillen,
I appreciate your help, but I had already checked that page and the tutorial page.
I couldn't find an example of how to format the syntax of a MQTT request to call an EVENT.

For a GPIO the syntax that I use is:
Switch Sonoff1 {mqtt=">[mymosquitto:/Sonoff_1/gpio/12:command:ON:1],>[mymosquitto:/Sonoff_1/gpio/12:command:OFF:0]"}

What should be the syntax for an EVENT?

thanks

Hi,
I can't understand the syntax.
Tried this in Openhab, but it did not trigger any rule in ESPeasy:

Code: Select all

{mqtt=">[mymosquitto:/Sonoff_1/cmd/event:command:remoteTimerControl=5:0]"}

Rule is (works with http call):

Code: Select all

on remoteTimerControl do
  TaskValueSet 5,1,%eventvalue%
endon

This is a openhab issue. I don't use that controller myself. But to start I would use a mqtt viewer (I use MQTT snooper). That way you can see what the actual message from openhab looks like.

The being said, my guess is that you want the config file to read something like this:

Code: Select all

{mqtt=">[mymosquitto:/Sonoff_1/cmd:command:event,remoteTimerControl=5:0]"}
