Listening to Domoticz mqtt

Hi!

I have domoticz running with a p1 cable to track power consumption and delivery. The data is pushed to a mosquitto server.

I thought I’d link that information into home assistant, but it’s not as straightforward as I thought.

I’ve set up the Mqtt add-on. And the logging shows it’s receiving data. However, I don’t have any entities popping up.

Seems that needs to be done manually? Per device?
Can’t find any documentation on how to take this further.

The log

Hi, nothing here: Integrations - Home Assistant

Might be overlooking it but cannot find power consumption/delivery device here? Or should I go more general?

:slight_smile: fter searching a bit further, this seems to be an example of a template:

mqtt:
  sensor:
    unique_id: 'efergy_monitor'
    name: 'Energy Usage'
    state_topic: 'energy/maintariff'
    value_template: "{{ value.split(',')[2] }}"
    device_class: energy
    unit_of_measurement: W

Not the easiest way to set it up :confounded:

Also, didn’t anything show up under Settings → Devices & services → MQTT?

I would have expected that… But no…

What is that 10.0.0.4 device?

That’s the Mqtt broker.

Ah ok, you’re right; the way it is arranged (on mobile apparently) and the foreign language confused me. :wink:

Got a bit further… Created all sensors:

Now energy dash is still empty… Seems domoticz and home assistant work very differnently.

The energy dash is not updated instantly.
Did you configure it?

Otherwise it would not be 2 different platforms…
