Port or merge this project to the existing OpenMQTTGateway project? #1

Closed Hedda closed 5 years ago

Hedda commented 6 years ago

@bphermansson might it be a good idea to port or merge this to the existing OpenMQTTGateway project and maybe join their development team (formerly known as 433toMQTTto433 gateway by 1technophile)?

https://github.com/1technophile/OpenMQTTGateway

OpenMQTTGateway is also a ESP8266 and RFM69 (from HopeRF) RF to MQTT project however it also keeps compatibility with ESP32 and Arduino + W5100 too, and as an additional bonus it supports InfraRed (IR) transmitters and recievers as well:

Good or bad idea?

@bphermansson Florian (a.k.a. @1technophile ) wrote here that should be possible if you are willing:

OpenMQTTGateway project needs a developer who owns a Sparnas and has own interest to add it

Interresting! Seems like a nice project in many ways. I'll take a look and see what can be done.

Hedda commented 6 years ago

@bphermansson Cool! and FYI; another similar project using ESP8266 and supporting RFM69 is "MySensors":

https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors https://www.mysensors.org

Interestingly, MySensors (which is a mature project) also happens to come from Swedish developers!

https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors/issues/1034

Posted another seperate feature request for them to implement Sparnas to as linked above.

This should be closed, it has been a year and these other projects are not interested.

MySensors closed the ticket OpenMQTTGateway says if they wanted a meter they would build the led blink reader and skip sparsnas.

It's a dead project before it even starts. Had @Hedda perhaps make PR's to these other projects it might have been different but I doubt anything is going to happen.
