Allow Hermes MQTT client to set a client ID

Open flatsiedatsie opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

It would be great if it were possible to also set a client ID for the Hermes MQTT client.

It could be a welcome addition to the existing MQTT options.

This would, for example, allow Hermes to play nice with other MQTT clients on the same system. This is common on smart home controllers. It would guarantee there is no overlap.

Currently I am experiencing disconnect issues. When MQTT detects a new connection it may kill the old one. Naming the clients can help avoid this.
