Where are the devices published? #30

I'm a little confused by the blog post on home-assistant.io

Replace localhost with the location of the running MQTT Broker. Devices from the MQTT Bridge are published to the path smartthings//

Where is this path?

jer commented 8 years ago

That is the path inside of MQTT. Events in MQTT are published and subscribed through path names, and by default the SmartThings bridge interacts at a path starting with 'smartthings/'

jer commented 8 years ago

Btw to see these events in your MQTT server, you can use an MQTT client to subscribe to smartthings/#

@jer Thanks a bunch. I eventually figured it out. Everything works now.
