MQTT - List modules?

6 years 2 months ago #3988 by Tsaukpaetra
I've seen in most of the arduino sketches, that it is expected to simply call a subscribe to /NewModule and receive a new ID (if available). This is fine if you're absolutely sure you have a new module, but I'd like to be able to do a little intelligence scanning and retrieve the module ID dynamically (Essentially, check if the device already has a module ID based on the name, use that, and if it can't find it, then call /NewModule).

I'd also like to retrieve a parameter's data (such as Measurement Unit) once I've made a connection.

According to the documentation, if I attempt to create a parameter that already exists (or conversely, try to subscribe a topic that doesn't exist) I'll get immediately booted. Is this the case?

All of this seems rather complicated...
