MMM-MQTTbridge allows you to integrate your MagicMirror into your smart home system via MQTT protocol and manage MagicMirror via MQTT messages by converting them into MM Notifications and vise verse - listen to your MM's Notifications and convert them into MQTT mesages.
So, this module for MagicMirror does the following:
- Listens to MQTT messages from your MQTT broker and, if mqtt-message arrives, module sends MM Notifications based on the pre-configured mqtt-to-notification Dictionary rules.
- Listens to the MM Notifications within your MagicMirror environment. If Notification arrives, module sends MQTT message based on the preconfigured notification-to-mqtt Dictionary rules.
1. Clone and install module. Do the following commands:
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/sergge1/MMM-MQTTbridge.git
cd MMM-MQTTbridge
npm install
2. Copy to MagicMirror config.js file MQTTbridge's config section:
- go to
cd ~/MagicMirror/config
- open file
config.js
- add the following config within
modules
section:
{
module: 'MMM-MQTTbridge',
disabled: false,
config: {
mqttServer: "mqtt://:@localhost:1883",
mqttConfig:
{
listenMqtt: true,
interval: 300000,
},
notiConfig:
{
listenNoti: true,
ignoreNotiId: ["CLOCK_MINUTE", "NEWS_FEED"],
ignoreNotiSender: ["system", "NEWS_FEED"],
},
// set "NOTIFICATIONS -> MQTT" dictionary at /dict/notiDictionary.js
// set "MQTT -> NOTIFICATIONS" dictionary at /dict/mqttDictionary.js
},
},
If you like to use a tls encrypted connection to your server you can use this example configuration:
{
module: 'MMM-MQTTbridge',
disabled: false,
config: {
mqttServer: "mqtts://:@localhost:8883",
mqttConfig:
{
listenMqtt: true,
interval: 300000,
mqttClientKey: "/home/pi/client-key.pem",
mqttClientCert: "/home/pi/client-cert.pem",
caCert: "/home/pi/ca-cert.pem",
rejectUnauthorized: true,
},
notiConfig:
{
listenNoti: true,
ignoreNotiId: ["CLOCK_MINUTE", "NEWS_FEED"],
ignoreNotiSender: ["system", "NEWS_FEED"],
},
// set "NOTIFICATIONS -> MQTT" dictionary at /dict/notiDictionary.js
// set "MQTT -> NOTIFICATIONS" dictionary at /dict/mqttDictionary.js
},
},
3. Set dictionary files with your MQTT->NOTI and NOTI->MQTT rules:
- go to
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MQTTbridge/dict
- copy the example files
cp notiDictionary.example.js notiDictionary.js; cp mqttDictionary.example.js mqttDictionary.js
- edit
notiDictionary.js
andmqttDictionary.js
for respective rules according to the explanation below.
For better understanding, we have divided config into 3 sections:
- General configurations in
config.js
; - "NOTIFICATION to MQTT" dictionary rules;
- "MQTT to NOTIFICATION" dictionary rules;
stringifyPayload
- specify if the payload of notifications should be converted with "JSON.stringify" before it will be send as MQTT message (The setting can be overriden for each message seperatly in "notiDictionary.js"), default is true.mqttDictConf
- specify the path to the "mqttDictionary.js" file starting at the module folder, default: "./dict/mqttDictionary.js"notiDictConf
- specify the path to the "notiDictionary.js" file starting at the module folder, default: "./dict/notiDictionary.js"newlineReplacement
- if you usevalueFormat
for MQTT messages or for notification payloads you need to configure how new line characters should be replaced. See valueFormat.md for further details.notiConfig
- the notification configuration. See the "notiConfig part" section for detailsmqttConfig
- the mqtt configuration. See the "mqttConfig part" section for details
mqttServer
- set you server address using the following format: "mqtt://"+USERNAME+":"+PASSWORD+"@"+IPADDRESS+":"+PORT or "mqtts://"+USERNAME+":"+PASSWORD+"@"+IPADDRESS+":"+PORT. E.g. if you are using your broker with plaintext connnection without username/password on localhost with port 1883, you config should looks "mqtt://:@localhost:1883",clientId
- specify the id this client will register at the mqtt broker with, default: a random string starting with "mqttjs_"mqttClientKey
- specify the path of the client tls key file (mandatory if using tls connetion). i.e. "/home/pi/client-key.pem";mqttClientCert
- specify the path of the client tls certificate file (mandatory if using tls connection). i.e. "/home/pi/client-cert.pem";caCert
- specify the path of the CA tls certificate file (mandatory if using tls connection). i.e. "/home/pi/ca-cert.pem";rejectUnauthorized
- specify if a self-signed server certificate should be rejected, default is true;listenMqtt
- turn on/off the listening of MQTT messages. Set tofalse
if you are going to use only NOTI->MQTT dictionary to save CPU usage;qos
- specify the default QoS level for subscribed MQTT messages (can be overriden for each message in "mqttDictionary.js"), default: 0retain
- specify the default retain flag for published MQTT messages (can be overriden for each message in "mqttDictionary.js"), default: falseclean
- should the connection be a clean one (look mqtt-clean-sessions-example for details), default: truewill
- specify a object containing the "topic", "payload", etc. (see MQTT.js for details) you want the broker send to subscribing clients if the connection to this client is interrupted unexpected, default: unsetoptions
- if you want to specify additional options for the connect you can add all of the MQTT-Lib supported ones this as this options object (see MQTT.js for details). IfclientId
,clean
andwill
are specified both as single options and in this options object the single ones override the ones in the options object, default: unsetinterval
- interval for MQTT status update (messages will be received all time independent of this setting), default is 300000ms.onConnectMessages
- a array of MQTT messages that should be send after the MQTT connected and subscribed to all topics successfully. Whiletopic
andmsg
setting are mandatoryoptions
are optional.
onConnectMessages example:
{
module: 'MMM-MQTTbridge',
disabled: false,
config: {
mqttServer: "mqtts://:@localhost:8883",
mqttConfig:
{
listenMqtt: true,
interval: 300000,
mqttClientKey: "/home/pi/client-key.pem",
mqttClientCert: "/home/pi/client-cert.pem",
caCert: "/home/pi/ca-cert.pem",
rejectUnauthorized: true,
onConnectMessages: [
{
topic: "test1/connected",
msg: "true",
options: {
retain: false,
qos: 1
}
},
{
topic: "test2/get_status",
msg: {value: "test"}
}
]
},
},
},
listenNoti
- turn on/off the listening of NOTIFICATIONS. Set tofalse
if you are going to use only MQTT->NOTI dictionary to save CPU usage;ignoreNotiId
- list your NOTIFICATION ID that should be ignored from processing, this saves CPU usage. E.g. ["CLOCK_MINUTE", "NEWS_FEED"],ignoreNotiSender
- list your NOTIFICATION SENDERS that should be ignored from processing, this saves CPU usage. E.g. ["system", "NEWS_FEED"]qos
- specify the default QoS level for published MQTT messages (can be overriden for each message in "notiDictionary.js"), default: 0onConnectNotifications
- a array of notifications that are send after the MQTT client connected and subscribed to all topics successfully. Whilenotification
is mandatorypayload
is optional.
onConnectNotifications example:
{
module: 'MMM-MQTTbridge',
disabled: false,
config: {
mqttServer: "mqtts://:@localhost:8883",
notiConfig:
{
listenNoti: true,
ignoreNotiId: ["CLOCK_MINUTE", "NEWS_FEED"],
ignoreNotiSender: ["system", "NEWS_FEED"],
onConnectNotifications: [
{
notification: "TEST1",
payload: true
},
{
notification: "TEST2",
payload: {value: "myvalue"}
}
]
},
},
},
Should be set within ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MQTTbridge/dict/notiDictionary.js
or the path you configured with the general configuration option notiDictConf
.
If the payloadValue
is missing for a notiPayload
element all commands configured in notiMqttCmd
will be initiated independent of the value of the notification payload (new since version 2.0 of the module)!
If the payloadValue
is set the payload of the notification needs to match with this value for the commands in notiMqttCmd
to be initiated!
A payloadValue
set to ''
will match for notifications with no payload or with the payload set to a empty string (new with version 2.0 of the module, DIFFERENT TO VERSIONS 1.X AND LOWER)!
If no mqttMsgPayload
is specified the payload of the notification will be send as MQTT message (new since version 2.0 of the module, DIFFERENT TO VERSIONS 1.X and LOWER)!
If mqttMsgPayload
is present the value of mqttMsgPayload
will be send as MQTT message!
You can configure if the payload of a notification should be stringified before it is send with the optional option "stringifyPayload". The default value is the one configured in the general section.
As of version 2.0 of the module it is possible to specify qos
, retain
settings for each notiMqttCommands
element. If present these settings override the default values of the general configuration.
Additionally options
can be specified which support all options for published messages of the MQTT.js library (see MQTT.js for details). If qos
and retain
are specified as single values and in the options
the single values override the options
.
As of version 2.1 it is possible to format the payload of the notification with a valueFormat
string before it will be compared to the payloadValue
and will be further processed. Look at valueFormat.md for further details.
As of version 2.1 it is possible to define complexer conditions
than only compare the payload content to the payloadValue
. Look at conditions.md for further details.

A payloadValue
set to ''
will match for empty messsage (new with version 2.0 of the module, DIFFERENT TO VERSIONS 1.X AND LOWER)!
If no notiPayload
is specified the message content will be send as payload of the notification (new since version 2.0 of the module, DIFFERENT TO VERSIONS 1.X and LOWER)!
If notiPayload

will be send as MQTT message!
As of version 2.0 of the module it is possible to specify qos
setting for each mqttHook
element. If present these settings override the default values of the general configuration.
Additionally options
can be specified which support all options for subscribing to messages of the MQTT.js library (see MQTT.js for details). If qos
is specified as single value and in the options
the single value override the options
.
As of Version 2.1 it is possible to let the message value be parsed as JSON and select single or multiple values with JSONPath-Plus before the message gets further processed. Look at jsonpath.md for further details.
As of version 2.1 it is possible to format the message or JSONPath-Plus result with a valueFormat
string before it will be compared to the payloadValue
and will be further processed. Look at valueFormat.md for further details.
As of version 2.1 it is possible to define complexer conditions
than only compare the messaage content to the payloadValue
. Look at conditions.md for further details.
