Loved the 10 million subs thing :D

Hi Bhavesh, thanks a lo for your tutorials and in particular for responding to my request with detailed answers. I followed your advice to use a usb serial adapter for the uart port and finally managed to get the data flowing over the serial port. Thanks a lot

really helped me to create an LED smart light for my room! Great going Bhavesh, more more more

So well explained! Thank you!

Thank you. This was very helpful

your great

You are so good ; I really hope you will have 10 million subscribers soon

very nice

Hello from Australia, i have a question. I am working on micropython code for an esp32, it has 4x ds18b20 temp probes, each publishing temps to my mqtt broker on 4x topics. I have a node red handling thermostat duties, publishing either a 1 or zero to the mqtt broker on topics relay1, relay2, relay3 and relay4. The question is, can the esp32 subscribe to all 4 topics and then control 4 gpio outputs for my relay board?

100000000th (binary) subscriber!

Great video man keep it up! Question for you can you run the broker off a 3rd esp32 as well?

Yeah looks like you can! I found this Arduino library which pretty much does all of it for you. It's not Micropython but, hey, looks like it works: github.com/hsaturn/TinyMqtt

Congratulations for your video !!! This is great quality and I have learned a lot about using mqtt with micropython. I have a micropython project with neopixel matrix connected to esp8266 (connected to wifi) and I was wondering if the same protocol could be used to send json files or arrays ? Many thanks and looking forward to your next video. best.

Yes it totally can be used for that! You need to convert your data (whether json or array) into *bytes* - this process is known as "serialization" of data. For e.g., if your data is json you can use the _ujson_ library (mpython.readthedocs.io/en/master/library/pythonStd/ujson.html) to "dump" your json into a string. Then you can send that to your ESP using MQTT. On the ESP side, deserialize the data by "load"ing the json. Probably there will be a max limit of how big your data can be, due to the small RAM of the ESP. But you should try it and let me know if you have more questions during the process :D

Nice work 👏 I was trying to use AWS broker online but have been having issues with building the connection, especially the certificate and private key. It would very helpful if I could connect to an online IOT cloud.

It looks like Adafruit IO has what you need and they do support insecure MQTT connections for testing things out (i.e. no certificate or key needed). They have a free plan too, and easy to follow documentation, check it out: io.adafruit.com/

How to send data from micropython on esp32 to python running on pc using pyserial module ? And vice versa ? Can you do this quickly plesae ? I tried . It works on arduino, on microbit but not when esp32 is running micropython !!

Could you describe your hardware setup to me? Are you connecting the ESP32 to the PC via USB cable or via UARTUSB cable? If it's UART, then which port are you using? If you could also share your code so far, it will really allow me to help you :)

great but i want to redirect remotely. for example: I want to know the temperature in my house from my workplace. how can do this? your current local connection

Hi Ömer! Yes it is possible to do this, and there are two ways: 1. If you have a Raspberry Pi at home, run the mosquitto broker on that. Sign up for the service 'pagekite' which allows your Pi to be accessed from the internet on a custom domain name (something.something). Now you can run an MQTT subscriber at your workplace that connects to the broker on this custom domain instead of the local IP address. 2. Other option if you don't have a Raspberry Pi - sign up for a cheap VPS server from Linode. Run the mosquitto broker on it, and give its IP address to your ESP32 and to your workplace laptop. They should now be able to communicate with each other :) Personally I find this option much easier. I recognize that doing this is not that easy, depending on how much past web development experience you have. Can you let me know if you are interested in learning the 2nd option? I may consider making a tutorial.

I tried it on Raspberry Pi PICO temperature measurement, it works. But if broker goes offline then PICO does not connect back to the broker. What could be the solution?

@BhaveshKakwani

Жыл бұрын

If the broker goes offline, then nothing can connect to it while it's down. When the broker comes back online, you can try connecting to it again. Maybe try having some basic logic in your main loop to detect when the connection is down, and try calling mqttc.connect() again to reconnect
