I would really love to have two MQTT-modules: "MQTT-sender" and "MQTT-receiever".
They should be similar to the "HTTP Request Sender" and "HTTP-switcher".

Hello! Are there any specific reasons you can't use "HTTP Request Sender", "HTTP Receiver" and/or "HTTP Switcher" in your system? Generally, they are quite universal and are meant for integration with the vast majority of systems.

I use this to integrate with home assistant as well as other providers. I ended up creating a docker that runs a python web server to turn the requests from the HTTP Request Sender into MQTT messages. I have the code here: https://hub.docker.com/r/skylord123/xeoma-mqtt/

The reason mqtt would be nice is because instead of sending requests to a single http receiver mqtt messages can be intercepted by various devices. I use this to notify Home Assistant to turn on my front door light when motion is detected on the path to my front door. But I could also have my other devices listen for these messages and act on the same message.

I would prefer having this functionality built into Xeoma. Makes integrating with other systems much easier.

I also agree. I use another home automation software (Domoticz). It will make much easier the interaction!

I build a node-red flow that is working with domoticz. TCP stream listen to 5001 but you can change it to any port you like. Also the HTT Request Sender iuse the format http://<mosquito ip>/<port>/camera/<domoticz switch idx>/<status_id>.
for status id you give value of 1 (when event started) or 0 (when event ended).
