MqttClient
This module is a part of the NetHomeServer. The MqttClient subscribes on messages on a MQTT-topic. and can also send MQTT-messages to the server. You need at least one MqttClient-Item configured in order to be able to use any other MQTT-Items.
The MQTT broker can be either locally installed, for example mosquitto, or on a remote machine. For testing purposes, there are open brokers like HiveMQ MQTT Dashboard
