SecuBox MQTT Bridge
Version: 0.1.0
Status: Draft
USB-aware MQTT orchestrator for SecuBox routers. The application discovers USB serial dongles, bridges sensor payloads to a built-in MQTT broker, and exposes dashboards/settings with SecuBox theme tokens.
Views
overview.js– broker status, metrics, quick actions.devices.js– USB/tasmota sensor list with pairing wizard.settings.js– broker credentials, topic templates, retention options, adapter preferences (enable/label/tty overrides).
RPC Methods
status– broker uptime, clients, last payloads.list_devices– detected USB devices & pairing state.apply_settings– broker credentials/storage.trigger_pairing– start pairing flow for sensors.
The LuCI views depend on the SecuBox theme bundle included in luci-theme-secubox.
Daemon / Monitor
/usr/sbin/mqtt-bridge (started via /etc/init.d/mqtt-bridge) polls configured adapter presets, logs plug/unplug events, and updates /etc/config/mqtt-bridge with detected, port, bus, device, health, and last_seen metadata. The daemon also keeps mqtt-bridge.stats.* fresh (clients, messages/sec, uptime) and executes automation rules defined in the config. The Devices/Settings views consume those values to surface Zigbee/serial presets along with dmesg hints for /dev/tty* alignment.
Legacy /usr/sbin/mqtt-bridge-monitor is kept as a wrapper for backwards compatibility and now simply execs the unified daemon.
Topic templates & rules
/etc/config/mqtt-bridge ships with starter config template entries (Zigbee/Modbus) describing MQTT topic patterns per device type. You can add/override templates and the RPC API exposes them so LuCI (or automation tooling) can build device-specific topics dynamically.
config rule sections define automation hooks. The daemon currently supports type adapter_status with action alert|rescan. When adapter health transitions (e.g. online → missing) the matching rule logs to syslog and appends to /tmp/mqtt-bridge-alerts.log, which you can ingest into SecuBox Alerts or other systems.
