Shelly devices 'announce' and 'update_fw'

[thomasbaetge]

for those of you, who use a lot of shellies and may be not aware:

there's 2 endpoints in shelly devices for MQTT as stated in the title.
'announce' will give you a status update of all your shellies within your network, along with an indicator, if there is a firmware update (may not work for battery driven devices that are asleep).
'update_fw' will do exactly what it says

it is the easiest Node-Red flow ever:

Code: Select all
