      I have installed Magic mirror and then added MM-MQTT module.
      Now I want to send message from outside client , let say from python client.
      and Magic Mirror should show me values I send , some how it’s not working.
      Any idea?

        @vpanse did u adjust the mm address and. ipWhitelist to allow outside the mirror access? by default it is set to.only apps INSIDE the same machine can connect

        set address :“0.0.0.0”
        and to test, ipWhitelist to []

        this allows any app on any system on your network to connect

          @vpanse - The MMM-MQTT module is an MQTT client. You need to configure it to connect to a MQTT broker (aka, server) and subscribe to one or more topics. Then you should have your outside client broadcast to the broker.

          It’s easy enough to install a MQTT broker on your mirror. I personally use Mosquitto. Like so:

          sudo apt update
          sudo apt install mosquitto -y
          

          That will install mosquitto as a service on your mirror. Then you can point your MMM-MQTT module at the local host on the listener port. Follow the documentation on MMM-MQTT to get you connected to Mosquitto.
