[SOLVED] MQTT message does not show (MySensors on ESP8266)

[pansen]

Hi,

I put the below code on a Sonoff switch (which has an ESP8266 on it). I installed mosquitto as MQTT broker on my orange pi and tested it, so the broker is ok.

Now, when I subscribe to the topic I set, nothing is shown when my relay state changes:

mosquitto_sub -h localhost -t Sonoff-Out

I am sure I am just missing some configuration or a command...Any ideas?

Have you considered using easy esp or other similar firmware?

@pansen said in MQTT message does not show (MySensors on ESP8266):

mosquitto_sub -h localhost -t Sonoff-Out

Try subscribing to all topics starting with the Sonoff-Out prefix, using a wildcard, and see if that makes a difference:

mosquitto_sub -h localhost -t Sonoff-Out/#

Esay esp won't work for me since it depends on the Arduino IDE but I am using platform.io. Any incentives to change?

That was it, thanks!
