bluetooth-beacon-mqtt-exporter
==============================
This is a service running on node v8 publishing Bluetooth BLE beacons advertisements on a mqtt topic.
The original intent is to make available to node-RED temperature readings from Estimote beacons ; but this will work with any beacon advertisement supported by the [node-beacon-scanner](https://github.com/futomi/node-beacon-scanner) module.
Dependencies
------------
```sh
sudo apt-get install bluetooth
```
and the bluetooth-beacon-mqtt-exporter command must be run as `root`.
Install
-------
```sh
npm install bluetooth-beacon-mqtt-exporter
```
Run
---
```sh
sudo bluetooth-beacon-mqtt-exporter
```
Configuration
-------------
Configuration is provided throught environment variables:
```sh
MQTT_BROKER=mqtt://127.0.0.1 # url of a mqtt broker. For accepted protocols, refer to https://github.com/mqttjs/MQTT.js#connect
MQTT_TOPIC=beacon # mqtt topic beacon' advertisements will be published to
MQTT_RECONNECT_DELAY=5000 # in case of a mqtt disconnection, will wait this amount of milliseconds before retrying to connect
LOG_PACKETS=no # yes/on/true/1 to log every advertisement package to the console
```
Docker image for Raspberry pi
-----------------------------
A Docker image for arm is published on the Docker Hub: [tomdesinto/bluetooth-beacon-mqtt-exporter][hub]
```sh
sudo apt-get install bluetooth
sudo service bluetooth start
docker run -d \
--net=host \
--privileged \
-e MQTT_BROKER=mqtt://127.0.0.1 \
-e MQTT_TOPIC=beacon \
-e LOG_PACKETS=yes \
tomdesinto/bluetooth-beacon-mqtt-exporter:rpi
```
### docker-compose.yml
```yaml
version: "3"
services:
beaconmqtt:
image: tomdesinto/bluetooth-beacon-mqtt-exporter:rpi
network_mode: host
privileged: true
environment:
MQTT_BROKER: mqtt://127.0.0.1
MQTT_TOPIC: beacon
MQTT_RECONNECT_DELAY: 5000
LOG_PACKETS: "yes"
```
Hack
