acidzebra / vectrix Goto Github PK

Hi there,

Feel free to send me on my way if this isn't a project under development any more, or whether this would be better as a discussion.

I'm a Home Assistant user trying to explore the MQTT features of Vectrix - particularly exposing as much as I can about Vector's state via MQTT to HA (starting with battery, face detected and "needs help")

However, my MQTT broker is set up to use login credentials.

I tried amending vectrix by adding the following:

if MQTT_logging:
    try:
        import paho.mqtt.client as mqtt
        client.tls_set()  # <--- even without arguments
        client.username_pw_set(username="MyUser", password="MyPass")

However - I get the three warnings under except.

Pip tells me the requirement for the library paho-mqtt is satisfied.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Would I be better off just trying to code my own Vector to MQTT script from scratch as a learning project? (this would be a shame as Vectrix makes Vector very fun)
