I have a MQTT server up and running. I want to configure home assistant to publish all changes and messages received from all sensors it is connected to, to my MQTT server. Is it possible? If yes, how?
I don’t know these components very well but I think they may be what you want:
I read the two components description. I want to send data to my own mQTT server. How and where should I define the IP address of the machine running my MQTT server?
The document says:
Operation
When any Home Assistant entity changes, this component will publish that change to MQTT.
But which MQTT?
I may be wrong but I think the following page is what you are looking for.
Yeah basically you need to set up the mqtt component pointing to your own server.
I’ve already configured my own MQTT server on my machine. I want MQTT Statestream/ Enentstream component to send their data to my own MQTT server. How can I do that ?
As far as I can understand it once you define your MQTT broker the Statestream / Eventstream will use those configs for the MQTT server details.
I think you are right. That totally makes sense. Let me test it. I will tell you the result.
Unfortunately I currently don’t have a sensor or anything to test this out. However, I added the device_tracker and home assistant sent the data to my MQTT broker. I think it’s working fine.
Thank you
