Hello,

I've managed to control one of my OpenRgb light through a mqtt topic. It goes from a source to a sink like said in the documentation. But if I change a color directly form OpenRgb gui, is there a way to publish on the mqtt broker that light state has changed ?

Hey,

is it possible/good idea to host in Docker container ? Will be any drawbacks doing that? If no, then i could try to create required files for "dockerization" :)

My mqtt server does not accept anonymous connection. I missed if there is any example about using username and password to connect to mqtt server in json config file.

Option 1

Support a Routes property in allmylightsrc.json where explicit routes can be configured in the following manner:
{ "From": "source-1", "To": ["sink-1", "sink-2"] } This would require to assign IDs to sources and sinks. An alternative flavour of this option could reference the connectors by index such as { "From": 0, "To": [0, 1] }. The latter would be less transparent and not robust for when sources/sinks are reordered.

Option 2

Introduce a Filter transformation that has access to meta information such as from what source a value originated. If the filter expression returns true, the value is passed on further downstream. We would also have to define IDs on the sources we want to reference in that expreession.
Example { "Type": "Filter", "Expression": "source.ID == \"mqtt-source-1\"" }

This option would take away some of the clarity the data flow has at the moment, where the input of a transformation/sink is exactly what came out of the preceeding transformation/source.

Anyone has already tested to integrate this with Home assistant ? I'm just curious.
