There are two ways to setup MQTT.
1/ Running a python script.
2/ Using Emonhub.

Using Python Script

In this setup the Raspberrypi where the RPICT is will be the MQTT broker. A script will run to convert the serial string from the RPICT into channel feed.

Setup Mosquito broker

Install Mosquitto using the commands below:

sudo apt install -y mosquitto mosquitto-clients

Enable the service to start at boot time:

sudo systemctl enable mosquitto.service


Using Emonhub
