Subscribe MQTT

[-macke-]

Hi

I want to subscribe to a MQTT message from another program like this: temperature/outside. Then I want to display the value on my LCD 2004. Is the possible?

I would think so, but as there is only 1 subscribe template, I think most people publish a message for the unit. Although there is a plugin in the playground which may work as well. There are some threads on displaying MQTT messages. Globalsync if the sender is also an esp. I need to look more on this too, as I want to send messages from Node-red.. I believe people are doing this as well.

Also have a look here http://www.esp8266.nu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1148 still in the plugin playground I think.

I am sure it is posible, but you will need to do some testing to see what works best for you.
MQTT, lcd and display are not going to work well in the search, too many of them. Try using google to search the site as well. Works better sometimes.

Also take a look at this thread,

Thanks for your answer! I think the MQTT import would be perfect for me. But I hade som problem to installed.

I get this error when I compile it (first time I install a plugin in so my av done something wrong)

I would check back with the thread on the plugin, it is in the playground so it my have issues.
No idea what the status is, but that would be the place to ask about it.
