Automate mqtt broker integration set up

Configuration
1

Hello,

I’m trying to automate my Home Assistant deployment (HA, mosquitto and zigbee2mqtt) on docker but I’m blocking on mqtt broker setup in Home Assistant.

I have deployed the 3 containers and configure mosquitto users.
I tested with Home Assistant UI to check if user/password was OK and it was successful.

I find in oldest post there was configuration fields in mqtt block (broker, port, username, password) inside configuration.yaml but there were deprecated/remove. I check in REST api and websocket api but i didn’t find a solution
Is there something I missed ?

I’m running:

  • HA in 2023.8
  • mosquitto in 2.0.15
  • zigbee2mqtt in 1.32.2

Thanks for you help

It is not clear to me what you are talking about

  • HA : mqtt configuration in yaml is removed, now done using the GUI
  • Zigbee2MQTT : still needs to be configured in configuration.yaml, but beware: Zigbee2MQTT’s configuration.yaml, not HA’s configuration.yaml

Thanks for quick answer !
Sorry for the not clear question

I’m talking of HA configuration not zigbee2MQTT.
It’s only possible from GUI ? I would like to automate that without manual action

Setting up can only be done using the GUI

Switches, sensors, … can still be configured in .yaml

What you could do is creating a “boilerplate”, minimal installation by using the GUI from scratch, take a backup of /config/.storage, then deploy that backup as the initial configuration of your newly deployed HA’s.
