No apologies are necessary. I hope a bit of history will help us figure out what is going on...
Matthew Wall's mqtt is the OG for publishing to MQTT. It's configuration is found under [StdRESTful][[MQTT]]. This has been around for a long time and is very stable. It is the extension most people think of when publishing to MQTT. It is here, https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-mqtt I need to publish to multiple topics so I developed MQTTPublish. So named to avoid confusion with Matthew's extension and align with my naming of MQTTSubscribe and MQTTReplicate. It's configuration is found under [MQTTPublish]. With these names and locations, I was hoping to make it easier for people to know what they have installed and are running. Looks like I need to do some more work on this. I have been using it for years, but only recently made it publicly available. So it has less 'real world' use and probably not as stable as Matthew's. It is here, https://github.com/weewx-mqtt/publish John apparently has a fork of my repository. I am not sure what additional functionality he has added, nor what he is calling his extension nor what stanza he is using to configure. I just ran the following commands: weectl extension list Using configuration file /home/richbell/weewx-data/weewx.conf Extension Name Version Description MQTTSubscribe 3.2.0-rc01aSource WeeWX data from MQTT. weectl extension install https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-mqtt/archive/master.zip --yes weectl extension install https://github.com/weewx-mqtt/publish/archive/refs/tags/latest.zip --yes weectl extension list Using configuration file /home/richbell/weewx-data/weewx.conf Extension Name Version Description MQTTPublish 1.1.0 Publish WeeWX data to a MQTT broker. MQTTSubscribe 3.2.0-rc01aSource WeeWX data from MQTT. mqtt 0.24 Upload weather data to MQTT server. Note using 'latest.zip' is just a convenience for install the latest released version of MQTTPublish. So if you want to continue. to try to use MQTTPublish, lets specify the exact version via, weectl extension install https://github.com/weewx-mqtt/publish/archive/refs/tags/v1.1.0.zip and see what you have installed by running weectl extension list Hopefully you now have MQTTPublish 1.1.0 and we can continue where we left. Again my apologies for the confusion. I will look into how I can make this less confusing. rich On Tuesday, 7 July 2026 at 22:19:38 UTC-4 [email protected] wrote: > sorry for all the posts...also it looks like your latest version is 2.0.5. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
