Need help with MMM-MQTTbridge not "communicating" with MMM-RTSPStream
-
Thank you again @rkorell and @sdetweil for your precious help, but I am at a point where I don’t have enough skill to generate the needed code lines.
What comes afterwards (ie. stop the stream, etc.) is not what worries me hehe, but all I am able to do at today is how to install a module and give it a basic config.
Having two modules to “talk” to each other is another matter and that’s where I start asking for help to people who know what they are doing (I am more a copy&paste or a tutorial follower guy). 😁
Once again this is the RTSP URL:
rtsp://username:password@ipaddress/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1#backchannel=0and this is the MQTT button press line:
2025-04-16 11:40:58,897 INFO __main__ Publishing MQTT message DahuaVTO/Invite/Event: {'Action': 'Pulse', 'Code': 'Invite', 'Data': {'CallID': '3', 'IsEncryptedStream': False, 'LocaleTime': '2025-04-16 11:40:58', 'LockNum': 2, 'RealUTC': 1744796458, 'SupportPaas': False, 'TCPPort': 37777, 'UTC': 1744800058.0, 'UserID': '101'}, 'Index': 0, 'deviceType': 'DHI-VTO3311Q-WP', 'serialNumber': '*******'}I tried creating a Home Assistant automation, but it’s probably wrong.

@Cr4z33 you are composing a service that does not yet exist
button on doorbell causes window w video stream to
openappears no one has done that w this video doorbell, welcome to the bleeding edge. u get to MAKE the sausage no one else wants to see!!
a MagicMirror module runs inside a web browser, all in javascript. it can consume info from the outside using url based apis http get or put/post
Now, sometimes, you want module A to work with data from module B. for example calendar. it reads the raw data file (ical/ics), parses all the events, gets the list of pertinent events ( dont care about 2 years ago, only next week…)
and displays them. hm id like a different display, but dont want to learn about all the file reading and parsing and selecting)
MagicMirror provides a way for one module to share its data with others, called Notifications. some identifying string, with some attached data. the mechanism is a broadcast. one send, every other module gets the same message.
if a modules doesn’t understand the identifying string, it ignores the message
if it DOES understand the identifying string, then it MUST understand the format of the attached data.so, modules that DO participate in this data sharing must document ( in their readme.md file)
what notification strings they send (and its associated data format, if any)
AND
what notifications strings they accept (and its required data format)nothing going outside the browser is known inside the browser,
to get that kind of info requires some module to be able to bridge the two environmentsi have a simple one
id like some way for a script running outside MagicMirror to trigger a module to do something (receive a notification it knows about)
so i wrote MMM-CurlToNotification
from the command line outside MagicMirror you can issue the curl command to send a packet of data that turns into a notification sent to all modules
there are other modules that provide similar support (as well as others), mmm-remotecontrol for exampleanyhow MMM-MqttBridge does that bridging for MQTT messages. in both directions
mqtt -> notifi(cation) and notification) -> mqtt
but you need to know a bunch of stuff, and figure out how to code the file that does the actual work
i work backwards
i need a video played from a url on demand
what modules can do that
and how do i setup for the on demand partpick a module RTSPStream or Minfo, read its doc to understand what notifications it understands, and what data it needs
install and configure the selected module
now you ‘could’ use my curltonotification module to verify that the video player module works
then you back up to the MQTT bridge module config to send the same message you just tested with, and what mqtt message will trigger it
then back up, and find/setup what will send that mqtt message
and how it is triggered to to thatyou can draw this all out on a piece of paper
coding is just making the computer fo the exact same thing over and over, just faster. if you dont know what, then it cant either
someone presses the doorbell button
how does something outside the doorbell know?
can that something send a msg via mqtt that the bridge is listening for? if not, can i find something that that can take the first things out and get it into our expected mqtt messagerepeat along the way,
test each step -

so i wrote MMM-CurlToNotification
Dear Sam,

Thanks and regards,

@rkorell and you did restart MagicMirror after installing the module, right?
you can also add config parm (make sure there is a trailing comma after doorbell
debug:true, -

and you did restart MagicMirror after installing the module, right?
yes, indeed :-)
And a trailing comma is there…
In the meantime I had even a PI-reboot (for other reasons) - error persists.
Even with debug-option enabled no debug message from your module.
Neither in pm2 logs nor in developer’s console…Ralf

@rkorell weird
i am away from my computer for most of the day helping family
i will review asap -

Thanks.

@sdetweil
As your posting above implies your debug message confirms a received message - but the message cannot be received, because the curl command doesn’t work …As per your advise I’ve git pulled, restarted mirror - but get same error message as before.
The curl command is bad or the URL doesn’t work.
I don’t know why and have no idea how to figure this out…Screen input- and output as follws:

@rkorell do curl -v
-
curl --v --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"notification":"SHOW_ALERT","payload":{"message":"fribble"}}' http://localhost:8080/doorbell curl: option --v: is ambiguous curl: try 'curl --help' or 'curl --manual' for more information -
@rkorell not double dash
just trying to figure out what the problem is
maybe curl version -
@sdetweil OK
this is curl --version :-) (just successfully trial&errored)curl --version curl 7.88.1 (aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.88.1 OpenSSL/3.0.15 zlib/1.2.13 brotli/1.0.9 zstd/1.5.4 libidn2/2.3.3 libpsl/0.21.2 (+libidn2/2.3.3) libssh2/1.10.0 nghttp2/1.52.0 librtmp/2.3 OpenLDAP/2.5.13 Release-Date: 2023-02-20, security patched: 7.88.1-10+deb12u12 Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher gophers http https imap imaps ldap ldaps mqtt pop3 pop3s rtmp rtsp scp sftp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp Features: alt-svc AsynchDNS brotli GSS-API HSTS HTTP2 HTTPS-proxy IDN IPv6 Kerberos Largefile libz NTLM NTLM_WB PSL SPNEGO SSL threadsafe TLS-SRP UnixSockets zstd -
@sdetweil because it doesn’t work on windows either this is most likely not a version but a command or URL thing …
-
@sdetweil said in Need help with MMM-MQTTbridge not "communicating" with MMM-RTSPStream:
just trying to figure out what the problem
Dear Sam,
I caught it …
The Windows command is not working for other reasons - doesn’t matter…
The curl on MY Pi doesn’t work because - for some strange reason the resolving of “localhost” doesn’t work ???Figured this out by using another linux client (Macbook) and therefor using IP address of pi remotely - which worked instantly.
And trying this locally on Pi with IP adreees does the job as well.
Thanks again for your help!
Regards,
Ralf -
@rkorell weird, it works on windows for me
i just copy/pasted from the repo and
changed the address and port at the endi can do it on the same machine or across the network to other machines
-
@rkorell localhost is(always) mapped to 127.0.0.1 on the same system
which is called the loopback adapter, cause the packets never leave the system
ping localhost
should work
