MQTT Dasher

Emits events to MQTT when an Amazon Dash button is pressed.

Configuration

The dash bridge has one yaml file for configuration:

---
mqtt:
    # Specify your MQTT Broker's hostname or IP address here
    host: mqtt
    # Preface for the topics $PREFACE/$TOPIC
    preface: dash

buttons:
    44:65:0d:dc:51:50: nerf_supplies

Usage

_note: follow this setup first

1. Install the Node module globally

   $ npm install -g mqtt-dasher
   

2. Configure your buttons

   $ vi /opt/mqtt-dasher/config.yml
   

3. Run the server

   $ CONFIG_DIR=/opt/mqtt-dasher mqtt-dasher
   

4. Configured dash events now feed into MQTT
