Retain messages #27

Closed spidgrou closed 1 year ago

spidgrou commented 3 years ago

HI, after numerous tests I saw that the MQTT Plugin installed ON openplotter doesn't manage the retain message.

I tried so many times but it doesn't work. I tried on an external Broker (HiveMQ) and it works.

Is there any possibility to switch on this feature? Or any suggestion on how to work around?

Thanks Max

It is not supported but adding an option for it is certainly possible.

The code is not very complex - are you a programmer and could try adding it your self? You'd need to add a boolean type parameter to the schema to add it to the configuration ui and then use the value to optionally add retain flag to the publish call.

Hi, I'd love to help, but it's really beyond my knowledge. I found a work around with node red, I send a topic update every 5/10 second. It is not the same but in the meantime... Thanks anyway to answer me, I really appreciate it.
