LibreCoach, a Home Assistant integration for RV-C enabled RVs

Backroads4me · February 10, 2026, 3:45am

I’ve created a couple of apps (add-ons) that enable Home Assistant to easily work with any RV-C–enabled RV. I’ve been running it myself for about a year and I think it’s finally ready to share. The screenshots below are from my personal dashboard using LibreCoach and a few other HACS integrations.

I am using EMQX as my MQTT daemon, not Mosquito. When I attempt to start the LibreCoach addon, it checks for Mosquito, sees that an MQTT broker is running, but then goes in to an error loop. Is is possible to have it check for any MQTT broker instead of just Mosquito?
