<p>MQTT (aka MQ Telemetry Transport) is a machine-to-machine or “Internet of Things” connectivity protocol on top of TCP/IP. It allows extremely lightweight publish/subscribe messaging transport.</p>
<p>To integrate MQTT into Home Assistant, add the following section to your <code>configuration.yaml</code> file:</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre><span class="comment"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
<span class="key">mqtt</span>:
<span class="key">broker</span>: <span class="string"><span class="content">IP_ADDRESS_BROKER</span></span>
<span class="key">port</span>: <span class="string"><span class="content">1883</span></span>
<span class="key">client_id</span>: <span class="string"><span class="content">home-assistant-1</span></span>
<span class="key">keepalive</span>: <span class="string"><span class="content">60</span></span>
<span class="key">username</span>: <span class="string"><span class="content">USERNAME</span></span>
<span class="key">password</span>: <span class="string"><span class="content">PASSWORD</span></span>
<span class="key">certificate</span>: <span class="string"><span class="content">/home/paulus/dev/addtrustexternalcaroot.crt</span></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Configuration variables:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>broker</strong> (<em>Required</em>): The IP address of your MQTT broker, e.g. 192.168.1.32.</li>
<li><strong>port</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): The network port to connect to. Default is 1883.</li>
<li><strong>client_id</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Client ID that Home Assistant will use. Has to be unique on the server. Default is a random generated one.</li>
<li><strong>keepalive</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): The keep alive in seconds for this client. Default is 60.</li>
<li><strong>username</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): The username to use with your MQTT broker.</li>
<li><strong>password</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): The corresponding password for the username to use with your MQTT broker.</li>
<li><strong>certificate</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Certificate to use to encrypt communication with the broker.</li>
</ul>
<h2><a class="title-link" name="picking-a-broker" href="#picking-a-broker"></a> Picking a broker</h2>
<p>The MQTT component needs you to run an MQTT broker for Home Assistant to connect to. There are three options, each with various degrees of ease of setup and privacy.</p>
<h4><a class="title-link" name="run-your-own" href="#run-your-own"></a> Run your own</h4>
<p>Most private option but requires a bit more work. There are two free and open-source brokers to pick from: <a href="http://mosquitto.org/">Mosquitto</a> and <a href="http://www.mosca.io/">Mosca</a>.</p>

<h4><a class="title-link" name="public-mqtt" href="#public-mqtt"></a> Public MQTT</h4>
<p>The Mosquitto project runs a <a href="http://test.mosquitto.org">public broker</a>. Easiest to setup but there is 0 privacy as all messages are public. Use this only for testing purposes and not for real tracking of your devices.</p>

<h4><a class="title-link" name="cloudmqtt" href="#cloudmqtt"></a> CloudMQTT</h4>
<p><a href="https://www.cloudmqtt.com">CloudMQTT</a> is a hosted private MQTT instance that is free up to 10 connected devices. This is enough to get started with for example <a href="/components/device_tracker.owntracks/">OwnTracks</a> and give you a taste of what is possible.</p>
<p class="note">
Home Assistant is not affiliated with CloudMQTT nor will receive any kickbacks.

<li><a href="https://customer.cloudmqtt.com/subscription/create">Create a new CloudMQTT instance</a><br />
(Cute Cat is the free plan)</li>
<li>From the control panel, click on the <em>Details</em> button.</li>
<li>Create unique users for Home Assistant and each phone to connect<br />(CloudMQTT does not allow two<br />
connections from the same user)<br />
a. Under manage users, fill in username, password and click add<br />
b. Under ACLs, select user, topic <code>#</code>, check read access and write access</li>
<li>Copy the instance info to your configuration.yaml:</li>

Home Assistant will automatically load the correct certificate if you connect to an encrypted channel of CloudMQTT (port range 20 000 - 30 000).

<h2><a class="title-link" name="testing-your-setup" href="#testing-your-setup"></a> Testing your setup</h2>
<p>For debugging purposes <code>mosquitto</code> is shipping commandline tools to send and recieve MQTT messages. For sending test messages to a broker running on localhost:</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>$ mosquitto_pub -h 127.0.0.1 -t home-assistant/switch/1/on -m &quot;Switch is ON&quot;
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Another way to send MQTT messages by hand is to use the “Developer Tools” in the Frontend. Choose “Call Service” and then <code>mqtt/mqtt_send</code> under “Available Services”. Enter something similar to the example below into the “Service Data” field.</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>{
<span class="key"><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span><span class="content">topic</span><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span></span>:<span class="string"><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span><span class="content">home-assistant/switch/1/on</span><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span></span>,
<span class="key"><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span><span class="content">payload</span><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span></span>:<span class="string"><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span><span class="content">Switch is ON</span><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span></span>
}
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>The message should appear on the bus:</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>... [homeassistant] Bus:Handling &lt;Event MQTT_MESSAGE_RECEIVED[L]: topic=home-assistant/switch/1/on, qos=0, payload=Switch is ON&gt;
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>For reading all messages sent on the topic <code>home-assistant</code> to a broker running on localhost:</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>$ mosquitto_sub -h 127.0.0.1 -v -t &quot;home-assistant/#&quot;
</pre></div>
