Mqtt instead of homeassistant API

Open malesci opened this issue 5 years ago • 6 comments

Thank you for this project. Is It possibile use mqtt instead of homeassistant API? Can you provide an example in case? Thank you

Hi @malesci, I just started putting the parts together, but looking at the documentation it seems possible, see: https://esphome.io/components/mqtt.html

Still, the ESPHome folks have some points why to prefer the native API, see: https://esphome.io/components/api.html (close to the end)

Good luck, Martin

@mpmoeller : martin, did you get MQTT running ? Maybe you can share your config ? Thanks!

@Noschvie - nope. I accidentally destroyed my reader, so I didn't look into that topic for a while.

Has anybody a valid MQTT client config to send the scanned value ? Thanks!
