hi A R,

I haven't set it up myself yet, but was thinking about the same use case.
What I've found is that there are mqtt/prome gateways - that work kind of
like pushgateway:

https://github.com/inuits/mqttgateway
https://github.com/Svedrin/mqtt-pushgateway

the general idea is that the exporter subscribes to the mqtt topic and
exposes it as a metric for prome (keeping the last published value from
mqtt in memory)

hth,
