Module for MagicMirror showing the payload of a message from MQTT.
Go to MagicMirror/modules
and write
git clone https://github.com/ottopaulsen/MMM-MQTT
cd MMM-MQTT
npm install
Here is an example configuration with description. Put it in the MagicMirror/config/config.js
file:
{
module: 'MMM-MQTT',
position: 'bottom_left',
header: 'MQTT',
config: {
logging: false,
useWildcards: false,
mqttServers: [
{
address: 'localhost', // Server address or IP address
port: '1883', // Port number if other than default
user: 'user', // Leave out for no user
password: 'password', // Leave out for no password
subscriptions: [
{
topic: 'smoky/1/inside/temperature', // Topic to look for
label: 'Temperature', // Displayed in front of value
suffix: '°C', // Displayed after the value
decimals: 1, // Round numbers to this number of decimals
sortOrder: 10, // Can be used to sort entries in the same table
maxAgeSeconds: 60, // Reduce intensity if value is older
colors: [ // Value dependent colors
{ upTo: -10, value: "blue", label: "blue", suffix: "blue" },
{ upTo: 0, value: "#00ccff", label: "#00ccff", suffix: "#00ccff" },
{ upTo: 10, value: "yellow"},
{ upTo: 25, label: "green", suffix: "green" },
{ upTo: 100, label: "red" }, // The last one is used for higher values too
],
},
{
topic: 'smoky/1/inside/humidity',
label: 'Luftfuktighet',
suffix: '%',
decimals: 0,
sortOrder: 20,
maxAgeSeconds: 60
},
{
topic: 'smoky/2/inside/temperature',
label: 'Temp ute',
decimals: 1,
decimalSignInMessage: ",", // If the message decimal point is not "."
sortOrder: 20,
maxAgeSeconds: 60
},
{
topic: 'smoky/1/inside/smoke',
label: 'Røyk',
sortOrder: 30,
divide: 10, // Divide numeric values. Alternatively use `multiply`.
maxAgeSeconds: 60
},
{
topic: 'guests',
label: 'First guest',
jsonpointer: '/people/0/name'
},
{
topic: "house/1/doors/1",
label: "Door",
conversions: [
{ from: "true", to: "Open" },
{ from: "false", to: "Closed" }
]
}
]
}
],
}
}
mqttServers is an array, so you can add multiple servers to the same config. You can also use the module in multiple places on the mirror/screen.
If the payload contains JSON data, use the jsonpointer configuration to get the value. See JSON Ponter specification or google an easier description.
Wildcard "+" is supported in topics, but it only works on some platforms (Chrome, Electron). Set the useWildcards config to true for wildcards to work.
Use the conversions config to convert values from one to another. If there is no match, the received value is used.
For numeric values, you can use multiply
or divide
to multiply or divide values before they are displayed. See example with divide
above.
You can also use this to display icons. Example:
conversions: [
{
from: "on",
to: "<i class='fas fa-toggle-on' style='color:green'></i>",
},
{
from: "off",
to: "<i class='fas fa-toggle-off' style='color:red'></i>",
},
];
For numeric values, color codes can be configured using the colors array in the subscription config. If you are using the same color scheme on multiple topics, you can configure it as a constant above the config variable like this:
const humidityColors = [
{upTo: 95, value: ''},
{upTo: 100, value: '#1a1aff'},
];
var config = {
...
and then refer to it like this:
colors: humidityColors;
General styling can be done in the MQTT.css
file. The table header can be styled using locator #module_3_MMM-MQTT > header
. The column text can be styled using the following classes:
.mqtt-label {
}
.mqtt-value {
}
.mqtt-suffix {
}
Pull requests are welcome.
Create a timeout, so values are deleted if they are not refreshed. May be faded out...
Create a threshold so a value is flashing if outside threshold.
