Share sensor across devices #237
-
|
Hello there ! I would like to know if there is straightforward way of sharing a sensor from a device A with a device B? I run a bunch of esp32 gathering data and publishing it to HA. I would like physical device A to be able to react to changes in device B sensors values by subscribing to its topics. Is this something achievable by instantiating a sensor class with the same id on the two devices? I don't seem to be able to get it work (it would make sense since it would be hashed with device unique id) Otherwise I assume I would need to listen to the topic as described in the advanced mqtt documentation. Thanks for your feedback! |

Hi @Freebios, At present, the sole method to achieve this task is by manually subscribing to the topics as shown in the advanced documentation. I will consider implementing an additional class that would streamline this process. |
