MQTT Integration

jpb

I'm not sure where to put a feature request so I'll put it here and hope the Flic devs read it

Just like the Internet Request integration, it would be amazing if we could have an MQTT Publish integration which sends a single MQTT Publish packet to a specific MQTT server and topic.

Thanks!

if anyone is still looking, I've taken some time to make a more robust mqtt library which even supports the battery status and IR modules. Feel free to look at it https://github.com/asosnovsky/flic2hass

MQTT please!

@steven Hi Steven, no it is not available in the Hub Actions in the Flic App. This is a module which can be used in the HubSDK with your Hub LR. Please check out this repo: https://github.com/50ButtonsEach/flic-hub-sdk-mqtt-js
And in case you are not familiar with the HubSDK, please check hubsdk.flic.io, https://hubsdk.flic.io/static/tutorial/ and https://hubsdk.flic.io/static/documentation/

@claudia Is this in the Flic Hub? I didn't see it as one of the Hub Actions available in the Flic app.

Hi guys, please see the newest topic. https://community.flic.io/topic/18233/release-of-mqtt-client?_=1674825212929
We now provide an MQTT client

@anton So is there any updates on this? MQTT to the Flic hub? Stopped recommended the Flic buttons to my friends just because you don't have a easy way to connect your buttons to home assistant. Have also a look at ESPhome and Bluetooth proxy and make your buttons work with that...

Hi, where are you with this?
And, when you are going to do this can you please add amqp as well?

@anton Great! loooking very much forward to this!

Thirded! MQTT support would be great - this can kind of be accomplished by using an HTTP to MQTT bridge, but native would be really helpful.

anton

This is noted. Once we are done with all the features promised in the Hub LR campaign we will look into implementing additional features. So we will take a look at it then!

steven

I second this! It would be useful for integrating into additional IoT systems (like the one I run at home - MQTT-based).
