Setting up TiltBridge for Home Assistant/MQTT
---------------------------------------------

TiltBridge is designed to allow for data to be pushed to Home Assistant via MQTT. This functionality was helpfully added by
contributors to the project on `GitHub`_ and has not yet been documented.

.. note:: If you use Home Assistant (or use MQTT without Home Assistant, or both!) and would like to help write this documentation, please reach out!
TiltBridge is designed to allow for data to be pushed to Home Assistant via MQTT.

.. todo:: Document MQTT configuration

#. Follow :doc:`initial_setup` to flash your ESP32.

#. Configure TiltBridge to upload to your favourite cloud provider
#. Verify your Home Assistant installation is configured for MQTT (either via the Add-On or an independent MQTT broker)
#. If desired, add a new user for tiltbridge to MQTT Broker configuration. Avoid generating a long password.
#. In http://tiltbridge.local/ , configure IP of MQTT broker, user and password details. Configure MQTT Topic to be `tiltbridge`,
which will result inthe MQTT topic(s)0 of `tiltbridge/tilt_$colour` for your Tilt device(s)
#. TiltBridge will now be auto-discovered and can be automatically configured in Home Assistant
