MQTT datapoint parsing help.

rob987

Hi,
I need some pointers on getting MQTT data into mango.
I have configured the MQTT Broker OK, and am receiving data,
but I cannot work out how to parse it.

I have a json timestamp pattern of "yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss"
Also, the temperature value is NaN :-(

Thanks

I have been trying different patters, and have a new error which is confusing me.
The Date could not be parsed, then the message ends with
:ISO resolved to 2021-01-12T16:46:47 of type java.time.format.Parsed"

I think it might be due to the ' chars in your pattern try this one and see if it works:

yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS

Hi,
Tried the date format yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS and the error changed to

Error during read topic: "tele/tasmota_E14FF4/SENSOR" datapoint: "MQTT_NAS - Mealies_Temperature" payload: "{"Time":"2021-01-13T13:26:48","DS18B20":{"Id":"01192718DE3D","Temperature":28.1},"TempUnit":"C"}" exception: "Text '2021-01-13T13:26:48' could not be parsed at index 19"

I have the Sensor temperature, and WiFi signal strength working now. ( Just using JSON, and not JSON + Timestamp, as I cannot find a parsing string that works )

Mango is subscribed to two topics, STATE and SENSOR.

The steps I took were

Connect to MQTT Broker and get a copy of the raw data ( Also checks connection from Mango PC )

robert@mango:~$ mosquitto_sub  -h 192.168.220.208 -p 1883 -u robert -P XXXXX -t tele/#

Client mosqsub/22329-mango received PUBLISH (d0, q0, r0, m0, 'tele/tasmota_E14FF4/STATE', ... (274 bytes))

Check the Subscribed Data at https://jsonformatter.org/json-parser You can paste the received data string in, and get a readable JSON document.

tele/tasmota_E14FF4/STATE

object{9}
	Time : 2021-01-13T10:46:48
	Uptime : 4T17:22:27
	UptimeSec : 408147
	Heap : 25
	SleepMode : Dynamic
	Sleep : 50
	LoadAvg : 19
	MqttCount : 3
	Wifi {8}
		AP : 1
		SSId : NixNet
		BSSId : E4:8D:8C:3F:D7:A1
		Channel : 1
		RSSI : 92
		Signal : -54
		LinkCount : 1
		Downtime : 0T00:00:03

And
tele/tasmota_E14FF4/SENSOR

object {3}
    Time : 2021-01-13T10:46:48
    DS18B20 {2}
        Id : 01192718DE3D
        Temperature : 26.6
    TempUnit : C

Here are the working MQTT Datapoint setups

And Temperature

And The correct values shown on the datasource page

If anyone has some ideas on how to parse the Time (JSON + Timestamp) let me know

Thanks
