WHAT is mqtt2rest?

This container will update Redis values everytime MQTT data changes and send it to REST endpoint.

MQTT Configuration

You can define MQTT server via env variables like so:

MQTT_SERVER=127.0.0.1
MQTT_PORT=1883
MQTT_USER=
MQTT_PASS=
MQTT_SUB=DDS238/#

The values listed are default so you can only use the env variable if you want to change it. MQTT_SUB accepts string separated by | to listen to multiple paths.

REST Configuration

You can define POST requests via env variables like so:

REDIS_REST_URI_BASE=http://localhost:3333
REDIS_REST_API_KEY=

The values listed are default so you can only use the env variable if you want to change it. If REDIS_REST_API_KEY is specified it will be attached to the outgoing POST requests.

Data collection

You can use my rest2redis project to capture data and push it to REDIS.

Docker

Start your container with this command replacing values to match your system:

docker run --name mqtt2rest -v /mnt/cache/appdata/mqtt2rest:/openvpn -e MQTT_SERVER=192.168.13.37 -e MQTT_USER=user -e MQTT_PASS=password -e REDIS_CONNECTION=redis://localhost:6379 -e REDIS_PASS=1337 -e REDIS_DB=10 -d rmamba/mqtt2rest
