# ModbusMQTT
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A bridge between Modbus devices and MQTT.
|
|
|
|
It is early days, but the plan is:
|
|
|
|
* [x] Support custom Modbus transports (Sungrow WiNet-S has been implemented)
|
|
* Modbus RTU has not been tested because I don't have a serial Modbus device, but in principle it should work. Please let me know
|
|
* [x] Support reading input registers
|
|
* [x] Support reading holding registers
|
|
* [ ] Support _setting_ holding registers
|
|
* [ ] Support optional auto-configuration of Home Assistant entities, including using [MQTT Number](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/number.mqtt/) et al for holding registers, to allow setting the value.
|
|
* [ ] TLS MQTT connections
|
|
* [ ] WebSocket MQTT connections
|
|
|
|
NOTE: For the time being, this does not support MQTTv5.
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
For now, use `cargo install` (Rust toolchain required). Soon, I will have release binaries attached to GitHub releases. In the future, there will also be Docker images made available for convenience.
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
Start the binary, passing in the URL to your MQTT server, including any credentials:
|
|
|
|
```sh-session
|
|
$ modbus-mqtt mqtt://$MQTT_HOST[:$MQTT_PORT]/[$CUSTOM_MODBUS_TOPIC]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The supported protocols are currently just `tcp://`/`mqtt://`, but with intent to support: `mqtts://`, `ssl://`/`tls://`, `ws://`, and `wss://`.
|
|
|
|
The default topic which ModbusMQTT monitors and to which it publishes is `modbus-mqtt`. You can vary that by changing the path portion of the MQTT URL.
|
|
|
|
Further, you can change other MQTT options by using query params, such as setting a custom client_id:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
"mqtt://1.2.3.4/?client_id=$CUSTOM_CLIENT_ID"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For a full list of supported options, check [the MQTT client library's source code](https://github.com/bytebeamio/rumqtt/blob/c6dc1f7cfb26f6c1f676954a51b398708d49091a/rumqttc/src/lib.rs#L680-L768).
|
|
|
|
### Connecting to Modbus devices
|
|
|
|
To connect to a Modbus device, you need to post the connection details to MQTT under a topic of `$prefix/$connection_id/connect`. It is intended that such messages are marked as **retained** so that ModbusMQTT reconnects to your devices when it restarts.
|
|
|
|
For instance, a simple config might be:
|
|
|
|
```jsonc
|
|
// PUBLISH modbus-mqtt/solar-inverter/connect
|
|
{
|
|
"host": "10.10.10.219",
|
|
"proto": "tcp",
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If the connection is successful, you will see the following message like the following sent to the MQTT server:
|
|
|
|
```jsonc
|
|
// modbus-mqtt/solar-inverter/state
|
|
"connected"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Full connection examples
|
|
|
|
All fields accepted (optional fields show defaults)
|
|
|
|
```jsonc
|
|
{
|
|
// Common fields
|
|
"address_offset": 0, // optional
|
|
"unit": 1, // optional, aliased to "slave"
|
|
|
|
// TCP:
|
|
"proto": "tcp",
|
|
"host": "1.2.3.4",
|
|
"port": 502, // optional
|
|
|
|
// RTU / Serial:
|
|
"proto": "rtu",
|
|
"tty": "/dev/ttyACM0",
|
|
"data_bits": "Eight", // optional (TODO: accept numeric and lowercase)
|
|
// valid: Five, Six, Seven, Eight
|
|
"stop_bits": "One", // optional (TODO: accept numeric and lowercase)
|
|
// valid: One, Two
|
|
"flow_control": "None", // optional (TODO: accept lowercase)
|
|
// valid: None, Software, Hardware
|
|
"parity": "None", // optional (TODO: accept lowercase)
|
|
// valid: None, Odd, Even
|
|
|
|
// Sungrow WiNet-S dongle
|
|
"proto": "winet-s",
|
|
"host": "1.2.3.4",
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Monitoring registers
|
|
|
|
Post to `$MODBUS_MQTT_TOPIC/$CONNECTION_ID/$TYPE/$ADDRESS` where `$TYPE` is one of `input` or `holding` with the following payload (optional fields show defaults):
|
|
|
|
```jsonc
|
|
{
|
|
"address": 5123, // REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
"register_type": "input", // OPTIONAL
|
|
|
|
"name": null, // OPTIONAL - gives the register a name which is used in the register MQTT topics (must be a valid topic component)
|
|
|
|
"interval": "1m", // OPTIONAL - how often to update the registers value to MQTT
|
|
// e.g.: 3s (every 3 seconds)
|
|
// 2m (every 2 minutes)
|
|
// 1h (every 1 hour)
|
|
|
|
"swap_bytes": false, // OPTIONAL
|
|
"swap_words": false, // OPTIONAL
|
|
|
|
"type": "s16", // OPTIONAL
|
|
// valid: s8, s16, s32, s64 (signed)
|
|
// u8, u16, u32, u64 (unsigned)
|
|
// f32, f64 (floating point)
|
|
|
|
"scale": 0, // OPTIONAL - number in register will be multiplied by 10^(scale)
|
|
// e.g.: to turn kW into W, you would provide scale=3
|
|
// to turn W into kW, you would provide scale=-3
|
|
|
|
"offset": 0, // OPTIONAL - will be added to the final result (AFTER scaling)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### Register shorthand
|
|
|
|
When issuing the `connect` payload, you can optionally include a top-level `registers` array, containing the above register schema. When present, these payloads will be replayed to the MQTT server as if the user had specified each register separately, as above.
|
|
|
|
This is a recommended way to specify connections, but the registers are broken out separately so that they can be dynamically added to too.
|
|

|
## Development

TODO: set up something like https://hub.docker.com/r/oitc/modbus-server to test with
