MQTT commands must be lower case

[wlatic]

Worked through a problem I had and found that the commands passed to Virtual Tasmota via MQTT must be lower case.

cmnd/bedroomlight/power1 ON (works) cmnd/bedroomlight/POWER1 ON (Doesn't)

It also appears that currently power1 ON toggles the light, just ad power1 OFF does. This means you can turn off the light (if it is on) using power1 ON.

This applies to dimmer and teleperiod, however RESULT and STATE are maintained as capitals.

I will have the option for case sensitive, as well working on the SetOption19 will post the update ASAP

Really good work on this. Got the Home assistant config ready if you wanted to publish to the wiki.

The only issue I can really see now is:

It also appears that currently power1 ON toggles the light, just as power1 OFF does. This means you can turn off the light (if it is on) using power1 ON.

Pushed the changes,

1. ON / OFF / Toggle Status
2. use the config page and select Home Assistant ( setoptions19) will send the mqtt in lowercase
3. later will enhance the same option to publish HA discovery topic

Check and let me know, any issue

Thanks Thiru

The light still appears to be toggling when passing:

root@aml:~# mosquitto_pub -h 127.0.0.1 -t cmnd/bedroomlight/power1 -m OFF root@aml:~# mosquitto_pub -h 127.0.0.1 -t cmnd/bedroomlight/power1 -m OFF

Will check into the setoptions19 and autodiscovery by home assistant later tonight. Again great work with this, made it so much easier to do localtuya!

To me this means your Virtual Tasmota isnt at fault but the tuyapi itself.

Did you ever look into devices turning off and on when submitting just the power off?

@wlatic, Yes now the latest code has setoption 19 to send the mqtt in lowercase
