Is it possible to add the Name and the mac address to the json string which is published to mqtt so by making use of node red this fields also gets added to influxdb. at the moment only the main values get written into influx but without name and/or mac address you cannot define respective dashboards for the plants. as i am not so keen in your code this would help me to get further with my project having NodeRED-MQTT and your deamon pushing data into influx for usage with grafana ! Big Tnx Alex

ok if ixed it now for me and for the mqtt_json reporting by changing the data generating section.

for param,_ in parameters.items():
  if reporting_mode == 'mqtt-json':
    data['name'] = flora['name_clean']
    data['location'] = flora['location_clean']
    data['mac'] = flora['mac']
    data[param] = flora['poller'].parameter_value(param)
print_line('Result: {}'.format(json.dumps(data)))

and some other small improvements for clean name and location.

Would be great, now I need to encode this in topic by using very fake names ;)
