Configuration

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,
    bigMode: false, // Set to true to display big numbers with label above
    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
            broadcast: true,      // Broadcast messages to other modules
            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: 'powerprices',
            label: 'Power prices',
            broadcast: true,
            hidden: true    // Do not display in the table
          },
          {
            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.

JSON Data

If the payload contains JSON data, use the jsonpointer configuration to get the value. See JSON Ponter specification or google an easier description.

Wildcards

Wildcard "+" is supported in topics, but it only works on some platforms (Chrome, Electron). Set the useWildcards config to true for wildcards to work.

Conversions

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>",
  },
];

Broadcasting messages

By setting config variable broadcast: true for a given topic, every message with that topic is broadcasted to every other module using sendNotification with notification identifier MQTT_MESSAGE_RECEIVED. This can then be received by any other module using receiveNotification.

Hide table entry at specified value

You can hide the complete table entry if the value is like defined.

In this example we only show the green button if value is 'on'. If the value is 'off' the whole line is hidden.

conversions: [
  {
    from: "on",
    to: "<i class='fas fa-toggle-on' style='color:green'></i>",
  },
  {
    from: "off",
    to: "#DISABLED#",
  },
];

Colored values

Value-independet colors can be defined like this:

colors: {value: "#caccca", label: "green", suffix: "pink"},

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;

Styling

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 {
}

Collaborate

Pull requests are welcome.

Thanks to

Thanks to Jan Lehnardt for the jsonpointer.js file. I had to copy it from the repo and make a small change, in order to be able to use it from both the module helper and the module file.

The topic_match code is also copied

TO DO

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.

Make a filter so a row is displayed only if a value satisfies certain criteria. To be used f.eks. when a battery level is too low.

Make a sound when a specific value changes.
