Catalog of features supported in MQTT

Thanks for your feedback :wink:

@mutmut did you do something?

Maybe depending on my availability I could help and do it?

Apart from filling out the Excel file, that’s all I’ve done and I won’t be able to do any more.

I’m reviving the topic a bit, I don’t know if I can help in one way or another for the next steps.
If I understood correctly, the Excel catalog seems complete… we need to move on to the front-end development phase, right?

I don’t remember putting everything that has been done around the electric vehicle, so there might be things to review.

Hi @guim31, indeed we need to get started on the development!

On my side, it’s not a priority for now. However, if someone takes on the subject, develops the feature, tests it properly and proposes a PR ready to be merged, I will add it to Gladys with great pleasure :wink:

I launched a Cursor agent on the topic, and it developed this catalog for me, the result is really clean :slight_smile:

List of MQTT devices:

Editing an MQTT device:

Adding a new feature with the catalog:

The catalog displays the final rendering of each feature, so it’s very clear.

I really like the result :slight_smile:

If you ever want to test the PR:

It’s even possible via Gladys Plus on an existing instance, since it’s pure frontend:

Feedback welcome!

I like it. For feedback:

But otherwise, yes, I find this new design with the catalog much better!

Ok he fixed the dark mode:

Oh yes, much better :heart_eyes:

And he also fixed the „Is this a sensor‟ button!!

And I’m doing all this from my phone right now — 75% off Cursor credits if you go through the iOS app :joy:

Looks pretty good, but I saw the motto that doesn’t seem right to me. Not sure if it’s a slider

@Will_71 Thanks for the feedback, it’s fixed for « Currency » :slight_smile:

A very practical UX improvement, the external ID is now automatically filled in, with the device name and a few random characters to avoid collisions:

And it also works on features:

The new MQTT catalog is merged and will be included in the next version of Gladys :partying_face:

Sorry, couldn’t test earlier and so I have some feedback…

Small remark about the search, accents are absolutely necessary :frowning:


Speed level: no % for me as we already have a speed (%)

Leak: it’s a sensor, not a switch for me

Brightness: add % as a unit

Hue and saturation: issue with the legend and control?


Same for these:

Motion detector: yes/no sensor and not a controller, active/inactive motion detection (instead of press)

For music, I’ve always had issues with these sensors that should be controllers, right (except state)? For TV, we have Press.

Opening: sensor and not switch

pH: no unit for me

Detectors in general: yes/no sensor and not Press or switch





Shutter position: unit in %

Then the anti-theft for the sockets, I didn’t understand :frowning: If it’s the child lock, it’s an on/off switch

Energy consumed: unit in kWh

UV sensor: no unit

Angles: unit °

COV NO2 indices: either we remove (integer), or we put an integer

Input state: sensor or switch?

Well, sorry again for the check and tests being so long :frowning:

Otherwise, the previews for the dashboard are really great and ultra-explicit, and that’s awesome :star_struck:

Thanks a lot for the feedback @mutmut, it’s not too late, I’ll integrate that before the release!

@mutmut It’s fixed here: Fix MQTT feature catalog feedback from community forum by Pierre-Gilles · Pull Request #2634 · GladysAssistant/Gladys · GitHub

Actually, it’s a legacy feature related to the old Z-Wave integration. It’s not useful code in the MQTT integration, so I’ve hidden it.

Thanks for your feedback!

This feature is available in Gladys Assistant 4.82:

Thanks to everyone for your help and feedback :raising_hands:
