Allow new attributes [linkquality] on MQTT messages #173
Comments
I really think that link quality would be a handy thing to track. I am just now realising how poor the range is on these devices. |
If I may, could it be possible to add a last_seen attributes to every mqtt payload ? |
While being wary of json bloat these would be useful to use Sent with GitHawk |
@lolorc yes, this is indeed nice to have. |
@Koenkk We should use the Or maybe you´v got another idea :) ? |
@tb-killa I think for every received zigbee message we should parse the linkquality and add it to the message. |
I found this information with
@Koenkk Do you know if we got this Information inside zigbee-shepherd too ?
If you point me i could maybe help :) |
Added the E.G. |
Regarding link quality, what do the numbers represent? Lower the number = better or worse signal for example? What's the number range? |
My routers are both at 2 and 5, not a good sign. :( |
The lower the number the worst the signal, 2 and 5 are indeed very low. In the same room I get somewhere between 50-100. |
Hi there, |
how do you plan on implementing the last_seen attribute ? Would it be a simple timestamp locally generated from the local time of the computer running the zigbee2mqtt daemon ? |
Found some interesting how to get RSSI value |
closing, reporting timestamp/last_seen for later :) |
How difficult would it be to add new attributes to the mqtt messages ?
running zigbee2mqtt with DEBUG=* I can see attributes I would find useful to report:
what's the timestamp reference btw ? is that something the device reports or is that a timestamp the gateway creates ?
