Flic Hub LR as MQTT Broker?

pico · 20 Feb 2025, 06:28

Can the Flic Hub LR itself be an MQTT broker to not need another piece of hardware if I just want the Flic Hub LR to subscribe and respond to MQTT messages from other sources? This way, I could use the Flic Hub LR as basically an MQTT-to-Matter bridge without needing another Raspberry Pi running as the MQTT broker.

@pico right now that particular code only acts as a client.

@Emil So you're saying it's not an existing capability in mqtt.js on https://github.com/50ButtonsEach/flic-hub-sdk-mqtt-js and it is something I would have to write myself?

@pico I think this should be possible. You just need the javascript code that implements it. The underlying tcp/udp support we have should make it possible.
