Homie protocol implementation for Lua

Homie.lua

A Homie protocol implementation for Lua. Homie is an IoT/Home Automation protocol build on top of MQTT. For details see the Homie spec.

This implementation will run on the Copas scheduler. This allows for running multiple devices in parallel.

Requirements

❗ Important compatibility notes
The LuaMQTT client has some serious issues. Hence for now luamqttt (note the extra 't') is required

• LuaMQTT client fork
• Copas scheduler
• LuaSec required if using TLS connections
• LuaLogging optional, but strongly recommended
• [LuaBitOp] a manual dependency on Lua 5.1

Installation

luarocks install homie
luarocks install luabitop
