script to convert serial to mqtt?
-
Hi,
I am trying to find a working script that translates messages from my serial gateway to mqtt so that they are equivalent (in structure and topics) to a mysensors mqtt-gateway.
The reason I would like this is that I can't use my rfm69h chip on my raspberry pi atm but I can use a serial gateway. As soon as I can use the chip I would like to use the mqtt gateway. And I don't want to set everything up from scratch in home assistant then.
Can anybody recommend a working script for this? I have found a few very old ones and one that's fairly recent, but the ones I found that let me set subscribe and publish topics didn't accept username and passwort for the mqtt broker and the ones that did used a different messaging structure.
Thanks for the help!

I haven't tested it, but this one seems to fit what you need

You could also use node-red for this (and many other useful things)

I've tried this in the past, but couldn't get it to work completely. It worked only one way, as for both send and receive a serial port node was needed, and only one of them could have access to the serial port at a time.

I am using appdaemon for my automation and I wouldn't want to install node red just for the conversion. Or are there automations that node red can that appdaemon can't?
