@jimmy-loyens Yes the mqtt gateway is very simple, just use some arduino+nrf4+ethernet.
There is a simple sketch for that.
In order to connect to openhab you should use openhab 2.4 and the mysensors (unofficial) binding. If you are on an older openhab you can just use the mqtt 1.x binding.
I did a post a few weeks ago. I'll try to find it for you.
@guillermo-schimmel Here you have some openhab+mqtt+mysensors examples

@guillermo-schimmel thanks, seems i have an ethernet shiel + spare uno lying around. I will give it a go. Is the mysensors binding compattible with custom nodes i written my own code for? Wich metod is less work to reprogram my openhab? I'm asking because my openhab is quite elaborate. I have a few 100 items and about 80 mylight sensors plugged in to openhab 😁 right now (serial gateway) they all enter openhab via 1 rule with a large hashmap. If i understand correctly i have to create a thing for each sensor and link each item to the channel of this thing. Got a lot of work to do😉😋

@jimmy-loyens i use a mosquitto broker to get messages from my esp milight hub in openhab. Can i use this same broker with different topic? I beleive openhab uses mqtt binding for this. Sorry still got a lot to learn about mqtt🤔

@jimmy-loyens Yes, use the same broker for everything.

Yes, it supports custom nodes.

Yes, but if you do it in text files it's not that bad.

Ok, thanks for all your help! I'll get started this weekend with the mysensors binding approach. 🤞

@guillermo-schimmel hi, when i look under mysensors binding in openhab paperui i only see things for serial gw & ethernet gw but not for mqtt gateway. Am i supposed to build a ethernet gw or is mqtt gw allso supported? Just asking to know wich firmware to flash since hw is the same. Thanks

@jimmy-loyens You have to build an mqtt gateway. On the hardware side it is identical to the ethernet gateway.
There is another sketch for it though:
https://www.mysensors.org/build/mqtt_gateway
It is very easy.
Please let me know it if works. I really like the openhab+mqtt+mysensors combination, I think that eventually there will be a lot of us here.

@guillermo-schimmel I have been looking at the mysensors binding this evening (see my posts here: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/7176/openhab-2-2-binding/118), but at first sight i cant get it working (i cant find a lot of clear documentation on the binding either) so i'm leaning more to the MQTT-binding approach right now. I will be exploring this route tomorrow. allready reflashed the gateway with MQTT-firmware

@jimmy-loyens do you use the mysensors-binding in openhab or the mqtt-binding (or a combination of the two)
-

@jimmy-loyens I use the openHAB-mysensors 2.3 binding.
But if you are unsure your mysensors setup works, it’s reasonable to start with mqtt binding and then migrate. Lots of moving parts.
I have posted here my own files for your reference.

@guillermo-schimmel can you tell me where you downloaded the binding? I think im using the 2.2 binding. Is it possible you forgot the link to your setup files? Greets

Please take a look here:

You will find my config and also a link to the 2.4 version of the binding.

@guillermo-schimmel ok thanks, the link was formilliar, i have come by this link at one time in the past but i couldnt find it anymore🙃. I will give it another try tomorrow with the newer binding. The configuration examples will help alot. Thanks👍

Have Mysensors in use with Home Assistant for several years, no issues. Using a Sensebender Ethernet MQTT gateway to feed HA. Just found this software. Can only get this software to connect via serial connection, not IP, and only shows data in the MYSController Debug tab. No nodes are discovered just 0 and 255. Is there something I need to do with the Gateway to allow connection for this software? Example of debug tab messages:

@tekka, thanks for the pointer. I'm using the GatewayW5100MQTTClient sketch, is this not the correct one? Works well though! Or, I do have MY_DEBUG at the beginning enabled, is then incorrect? However I can't connect MYSController via the IP port either. So if it is MY_DEBUG enabled as the problem then it impacts on both connections?

@andy5211d It seems that MYScontroller does not work when MQTT is involved. I've tested both sketches, GatewayW5100 and GatewayW5100MQTTClient, and only GatewayW5100 could connect to MYSController.

@Jan Spies, Thanks for your help. Was about to try different sketches over the weekend but guess I'll try some other approach now. Would really like to get MYSController or something similar to work. I can see data on the serial port (as shown below) but nothing on the ethernet port that looks useful other than what is sent and is returned from MQTT (I'm using Home Assistant). I have Lazerus so may have a play with the data on the serial port. Perhaps could feed the serial data into another Arduino and make it available on another IP address for different MySensor controller software. as not easy to get to my gateway hardware with a serail connection. Or seeing that the data is in MQTT perhaps feeding it into another app to display similar to MYSController. Wonder if the source of MYSController in in Guthub. Will have a look; no point in re-inventing the wheel... Wish I could work out what the ERROR ErrorFlag=255, etc means in my serial port output in the post below.
