Connecting DMX ArtNet data to MQTT devices.

Simply put, this software receives DMX data through ArtNet and publishes values for the entire DMX universe to an MQTT broker. Useful to integrate smart home devices (e.g. lights) with an existing DMX/ArtNet setup.

Linux, Windows & macOS:

npm install

Then set environment variables as necessary. The following variables are available:

• MQTT_TOPIC (DMX data will be published to this topic, default dmx)
• MQTT_HOST (hostname for MQTT broker (e.g. "192.168.1.2"), default localhost)
• ARTNET_NET (ArtNet network to be used, default 0)
• ARTNET_SUBNET (ArtNet subnet to be used, default 0)
• ARTNET_UNIVERSE (ArtNet universe to be used, default 0)

Run installation, then run

node app

If all environment variables are set correctly, ArtNet data will now be published to the MQTT broker. The topic dmx (or other, if variable set) receives the entire DMX universe as a JSON array, topics dmx/0 to dmx/511 receive the value for the respective DMX channel.

This repository also includes a Dockerfile. Simply build it like this

docker build -t artnetMqttBridge .

and run it like this

docker run -p 6454:6454/udp -e MQTT_TOPIC=dmx -e MQTT_HOST=192.168.1.1 artnetMqttBridge
