## Configuration
### Broker Mosquitto
During installation, a [MQTT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQTT) broker, [Mosquitto](https://mosquitto.org/), is installed at the same time as Domoticz.
This broker requires a dedicated domain or subdomain to work (ex : mqtt.your.domain.tld): creating this domain prior installation is a prerequisite
#### Adding in Domoticz
To use Mosquitto, you need to customize the communication between Domoticz and the broker by following the [domoticz documentation](https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/MQTT#Installing_Mosquitto), part *Add hardware "MQTT Client Gateway"*.
User and password are automatically generated during installation, you may retrieve them with
````
sudo yunohost app setting domoticz mqtt_user
sudo yunohost app setting domoticz mqtt_pwd
````
#### Publish/Subscribe
By default, mosquitto will listen on 2 ports:
- 1883 on localhost using MQTT protocol
- 8883 using websocket protocol. NGINX redirect external port 443 to this internal port.
Hence, To publish/subscribe on a topic from the outside, you have to use a software supporting websocket protocol (ex : paho Python library).
#### Mosquitto_pub et mosquitto_sub
These 2 tools do not support websocket protocol, only direct mqtt: base settings will not allow communication from an outside device.
If you're using them directly from your server, this kind of syntax should work:
````
mosquitto_pub -u *user* -P *password* -h mqtt.your.domain.tld -p 1883 -t 'domoticz/in' -m '{ "idx" : 1, "nvalue" : 0, "svalue" : "25.0" }'
````
In the same way:
````
mosquitto_sub -u *user* -P *password* -h mqtt.your.domain.tld -p 1883 -t 'domoticz/out'
````
If you wish to open direct mqtt protocol from an outside device, you'll need to:
- open port 1883 on YunoHost firewall (**Attention, security risk**)
- Allows IP addresses in Mosquitto configuration for this listener
- Set the tls setting in Mosquitto configuration by giving access to crt.pem and key.pem from your mqtt domain by setting respective certfile et keyfile variables. **This is mandatory to ensure a secure connection.**
#### Upgrade from version without Mosquitto
If you have package 2020.2~ynh3 or below or if you have chosen to not set a domain during initial installation, Mosquitto is not installed by default.
If you need to activate mosquitto in retrospect, do following actions:
1. Create a domain or a subdomain (for example: 'mqtt.your.domain.tld')
2. Connect to your server in command line
3. Type following command : `yunohost app setting domoticz mqtt_domain -v mqtt.your.domain.tld`
4. Upgrade Domoticz to last package.
If you're already on the last package version, use the following command: `yunohost app upgrade domoticz --force`
## Configuration
### Sensors, language and this kind of stuff
Main configuration of the app take place inside the app itself.
### Zwave management
If you're using Zwave devices, install Mosquitto along Domoticz and give a try to [zwave-JS-UI package](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/zwave-js-ui_ynh).
Once installed, just follow instructions from the [wiki](https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Zwave-JS-UI)
### Access and API
By default, access for the [JSON API](https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Domoticz_API/JSON_URL's) is allowed on following path `/yourdomain.tld/api_/domoticzpath`.
So if you access Domoticz via https://mydomainname.tld/domoticz, use the following webpath for the API: `/mydomainname.tld/api_/domoticz/json.htm?yourapicommand`
By default, only sensor updates and switch toogle are authorized. To authorized a new command, you have to manually update the NGINX config file:
````
sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/yourdomain.tld.d/api_domoticz.conf
````
Then edit the following block by adding the regex of the command you want to allow:
````
#set the list of authorized json command here in regex format
#you may retrieve the command from https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Domoticz_API/JSON_URL's
#By default, sensors updates and toggle switch are authorized
if ( $args ~* type=command&param=udevice&idx=[0-9]*&nvalue=[0-9]*&svalue=.*$|type=command&param=switchlight&idx=[0-9]*&switchcmd=Toggle$) {
set $api "1";
}
````
For example, to add the JSON command to retrieve the status of a device (/json.htm?type=devices&rid=IDX),modify the line as this:
````
if ( $args ~* type=command&param=udevice&idx=[0-9]*&nvalue=[0-9]*&svalue=.*$|type=command&param=switchlight&idx=[0-9]*&switchcmd=Toggle$|type=devices&rid=[0-9]* ) {
set $api "1";
}
````
All IPv4 addresses within the local network (192.168.0.0/24) and *all IPv6* addresses are authorized as API.
As far as I know, there is no way to filter for IPv6 address on local network: You may remove the authorization by removing or commenting this line in `/etc/nginx/conf.d/yourdomain.tld.d/domoticz.conf`:
````
allow ::/1;
````
This will authorized only IPv4 within local network to access your Domoticz API.
You may add individual IPv6 address in the same way.
