HC3 and MQTT in QA


Guest kallecux

Question

Guest kallecux

Hello! - Happy Easter!

 

I try to play with the new MQTT-functionality in QA's, but im am not successful.

There i have a MQTT broker on Hassio and this code on HC3:

 

Please login or register to see this code.

When i save the QA i get this message on HC3:

[13.04.2020] [13:33:33] [DEBUG] [QUICKAPP353]: onConnected: {"sessionPresent":false,"returnCode":0}

 

The Broker says this:

1586777612: New connection from 192.168.3.116 on port 1883.
[INFO] found hc3 on Home Assistant
1586777613: New client connected from 192.168.3.116 as randomjdtfpexjvy (p2, c0, k0, u'hc3')

 

So i think everything is OK, but i get no:

- onSubscribeMessage when the QA started

- onPublished Message when i toggle the switch 

 

Is there anybody who can give me a hint?

Thanks in advance.

Karl Heinz 

 

Edited:

When i toggle the QA Switch, the message is transferred to the broker and the other clients (NodeRed-Cient), but the function onPublished is NOT called! 

I think the callback / envent is not executed, so i can not get the subscribed data. :-(

Can you register different callbacks for each topic (humid, temp etc). Now you seem to have one big callback?

Alternatively, what happens if you do

or, even more chopped up

The idea is to give time for the MQTT client to process messages... if that is the problem. 

Thank you all for sharing, i reused a lot of you work here .

Perhaps someone can se what i'm doing wrong?

 

I subscribe to the "ventilation/moist/RH" with  self.client:subscribe("ventilation/moist/RH")

But the system just gets all events from the MQTT and I cant filter out the RH

 

Any idea why ?

I'm new to coding in HC3 and was wondering if anyone could help me understand how to publish to a know broker. I am trying to publish data to a broker. I managed to do this in python with the following code : 

 

import sys
import time
import numbers
from datetime import datetime, timezone, timedelta
import json
import paho.mqtt.client as mqtt
import random

mqtt_server = "mqtt.energydata.dk"
mqtt_port = 1883
mqtt_user = "Username"
mqtt_pass ="Password"

def on_connect(client, userdata, flags, rc):
    if rc==0:
        client.connected_flag = True
        print("connected OK")
    else:
        print("Bad connection Returned code=",rc)


mqtt.Client.connected_flag = False

client = mqtt.Client("Flexhouse 2 client")
client.username_pw_set(mqtt_user, mqtt_pass)

client.on_connect=on_connect

client.loop_start()
print("Connecting to broker: ", mqtt_server)
client.connect(mqtt_server, mqtt_port, 60)

while not client.connected_flag:
    print("In wait loop")
    time.sleep(1)

print("in Main Loop")

while True:
  my_topic = "9F7J/M4/P2/DTU/PLDK/SYSLAB/studenproject_Q1_2021/SMART_HOME_CONSUM/gas_in_temperature"
  my_value = random.randint(0, 100)

  now = datetime.now(timezone.utc)
  epoch = datetime(1970, 1, 1, tzinfo=timezone.utc) # use POSIX epoch
  my_timestamp = (now - epoch) // timedelta(microseconds=1) // 1000

  json_body = '{"value": ' + str(1.52) + ', "timestamp": ' + str(my_timestamp) + ' }'

  print(json_body)
  client.publish(my_topic, json_body)
  time.sleep(1)

client.loop_stop()  
client.disconnect()
#######################################################################################

Is there anyone here who could help me translate this to HC3?

Hi, I have been following this thread and I can get my Tasmota partially working over MQTT, but i am getting this error, I am actually usingt the emulator so maybe thats the issue. Anyone seen this before?

 

Thanks

Do you get the same error on the HC3?

The error happens when you call json.encode from line 46 in file clean.lua- what happens there?

add

   self:debug(event.payload)

and see what you got

Just now, jgab said:

 or better - because you run in the emulator. Set a break-point at line 46 and inspect the payload variable.

If you set the emulator's mqtt debug flag you will get logs from the mqtt "engine" giving you a better idea what's going on.

I checked the mqtt code in TQAE (no one used it since I moved it over from the old emulator)

...and I had an error when it tried to include some libraries.

I fixed it in v0.40 that I just pushed to my GitHub.

If I run this in the TQAE emulator  (note that I added the mqtt debug flag in the header)

I have set up a MQTT broker on a NodeRed server (node-red-contrib-aedes) that answers to the messages.

I get this output in the console (I restarted the broker at the end so the client got a close message)

Thanks for the response, this is the error. Need to take a better look tonight;

I worked it out, it because the payload doesn't always present as json string and hence errors, I have put some logic in to detect for JSON, which has worked. Now I am getting a nil value error;

You assign 'local payload', but it goes out of scope when you exit the if-then-else...

Hi, yes I worked that out. Also some of the MQTT subscribes were coming back not as JSON, its a Tasmota plug and its fairly standard for the stat/tasmota-plug1/POWER for example. Spent ages coding a test for JSON and realised I could probably just exclude them! Anyway I now have the issue that I need to detect between different MQTT messages as not all responses, I am guessing can do if payload.topic = xxx then xxx like this. It seems to work but feels messy. Also had anyone updated the watts on a QA to get the power working correctly? I assume its got to be a child device.

I try to control my lamps through MQTT in a QA, but get an unknown error: handleJsonRpc.

It's working fine when I send the commands by a ruby MQQT client:

It's just a simple code, but for me now okay for learn more about this. But what's wrong with this?

One more question, how can a send a dimmer value?

It works if I manually enter the value between 0 and 100, but when I use the value of a slider it doesn't work.
