MQTT Support

Bastik

MQTT support would be very great.

you would have all readings centrally under FHEM in view and could switch further events with status "finisch". e.g. switch off a Sonow POW (tasmato) and thus switch off the printer.

MQTT is on list for future interface options. But first other more important features will come.

What is the current status of MQTT support?

Won't start this year due to lower priority over other functions.

If would like to get only information  from reptierserver you can use this software. Docker is also supported.

That is awesome, I tried it but it won't work on my raspberry pi´s. Both stop at the same spot. Running it with python 3.7 and paho-mqtt installed.

Every time I try to run the script it results in:

  File "repeqtt.py", line 94, in <module>

    queryRepetier()

  File "repeqtt.py", line 67, in queryRepetier

    serverKey = srvdata['apikey']

KeyError: 'apikey'

I already tried to use add another user with all rights and easy non special characters password.

API should be working, since I use it in ioBroker already, that reads the data.

I did not find any information how to maybe enable "REST API" if that is a different thing.

Any ideas?

Or maybe any idea how I could change the script to not query the API via User + PW but instead directly using the according API Key?

I have a running Home automation with OpenHab and using mosquitto to communicate between the Raspberrys and devices, i.e. to get energy consumption from smart sockets.

So I only want to send an "event" from the Repetier-Server (when print starts) via extcommands.xml to my existing mqqt broker, what package(s) have I to install?

Any hints? Thx!

Hello,
i`m saerching also an solution for this.

I use an raspberry pi running repetier server and another one running openhab2 with mosquitto installed.
Can anyone describe how to run this python-script on which of the both raspberries?

Or ist ther another way using the API to get state of printers?

Regards

I running the script using docker. So I not addicted to the available packages of the os.

my `doker-compose.yml`:
```yaml

version: '3'
services:
  repeqtt:
    build: .
    volumes:
      - './repeqtt.conf:/repeqtt.conf:ro'
    user: 1000:1000
    restart: unless-stopped

```

my `repeqtt.conf` (you need to set the missing values):
```
[repeqtt]
name=repeqtt

[server]
address =
port = 80
user =
secret =

[broker]
address =
port = 1833
user =
secret =
root_topic =
update_interval = 30
```

Because I do not build an docker image at the ci in the moment, you must build it by yourself.

install docker (if is not intalled),

create your `docker-compose.yml`,

create your `repeqtt.conf`

clone the git repo

run `sudo docker-compose up -d`

you can show logs with `sudo docker-compose logs -f` now

of course you can also try to run it without docker.

At this case you must install python and `run pip install paho-mqtt` after cloning the repo. (I did never try this)

I have not use the software for a long time, because I have start using webactions instead. I have check it today again but it seems to not work anymore, may a breaking change at python. Sadly I personal have no interest in dealing with this python issues.

How you can see at the git history, I have not write it by myself, I only have adjust it to my needs.

May I will write a completely new software one day.

At the current state the software fail at the import of paho.mqtt library.
