OpenWRT presence detection

[lwolf]

There is an OpenWRT presence detection script on github:
https://github.com/dersimn/owrtwifi2mqtt/

In case anyone needs similar functions i have modified the above to be MQTT Autodiscovery compatible:
https://github.com/enesbcs/owrtwifi2mqtt

Its a script which has to be uploaded to an OpenWRT router and to be setup to start automatically.
The script reports by MQTT if a wireless device connects/disconnects, and also sends an autodiscovery config object to register a binary_sensor.

This looks good, any idea what SCP is ?

Excellent thanks.

Do I change the IP here to that of my existing MQTT broker ?

Code: Select all

nohup /usr/bin/presence_report 192.168.1.2 >/dev/null 2>&1 &

Or should that be the IP of my Openwrt router ? If so, where do I add the IP of my MQTT broker ?

There are only one parameter: the MQTT broker. This has to be replaced to 192.168.1.2 which is the example.
