[WIP]Add support for Client Certificates for MQTT and disabling Retained messages #151

Closed prestomation closed 2 years ago

prestomation commented 2 years ago

For my usecase, I want to connect to a cloud broker(AWS IoT). This service uses Client Certificates. AWS IoT has an incomplete MQTT implementation and does not support QoS (Exactly Once). It also does not support Retain messages in LWT and other situations.

This change is to get feedback on how we prefer to deal with these configuration edge cases. It's not clear to me that QoS2 is actually useful because of how HWS republishes all messages on a recurring basis. Should we add additional options for supporting Retains/QoS2? Should we remove the use of QoS2 and make the option I've already added apply to all retains?

Additionally, I'm having some problems with the UI. I am not familiar with this UI framework, but the second new textbox and save button are now out of frame/invisible in my build. It looks like there should be a scrollbar, so not sure of the best way to fix this.

Testing: I have this working with AWS IoT in my AWS account. I have configured my HomeAssistant mosquitto broker to bridge to AWS IoT and my HWS sensors are working great.

Thank you so much! This looks great! I'll get back to you this weekend.

I'm working on the UI so everything will be reachable.
