I have a program for my MQTT stuff, and my subscriber file that receives instructions from the publisher failed after I had made some modifications to it.
When I look at the file in kate, there is a difference that I cannot explain. In these following lines, the word 'connect' is in blue in the failing version, but not highlighted in the good version. Here are the first few lines: # 2020-09-14 This is a change to RC car-7 from using Flask and HTML to using Mosquitto # 2020-11-06 Edited to remove all the calculations leading up to the PWM percentage #!python3 # *** SET UP MQTT *** # from https://techtutorialsx.com/2017/04/23/python-subscribing-to-mqtt-topic/ import paho.mqtt.client as mqtt import time Connected = False #global variable for the state of the connection broker_address= "192.168.4.1" port = 1883 user = "rc-car-11" password = "N0YB" # Create client --?? Is this the same as User? client = mqtt.Client(client_id="rc-car-11") # Connect to broker client.connect(broker_address,1883,60) # bad connect word. # Subscriber to topic client.subscribe("rc-car-pwm") I even copied the line out of the good file and pasted into the faulty one, but 'connect' turned blue. Any thoughts? peter M. -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2020-12-01 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
