Can I make a DevkitV1 esp32 working with tasmoticz

[Maikeleg]

Can I make a DevkitV1 esp32 working with tasmoticz
I only need to pass through one GPIO port (GPIO1 now) as hardware switch with MQTT
Can't get it to work, just reset everything to default in the esp
What should I enter in the field "Client", it's empty now

This is in my verbose logging;

not sure what you are doing, but to just answer your questions:

1. yes, that should just work
2. set client to something unique (something that no other mqtt client uses, I simply use the string tasmoticz)

Let’s start simple:
Does tasmota on the esp32 devkit work on its own? E.g. while domoticz is stopped or the tasmoticz plugin is not activated? can you operate the switch via the tasmota web interface?

Hi Joba,
No i cannot operate. for clarity; de GPIO1 is connected to gnd. configured in Module config. I can see the GPIO change High/Low in the GPIO viewer. This is tasmota console;

[joba-1]

so it is not a normal power switch, you just monitor the pin for hi/lo. ok.

This has to work first. Tasmoticz does not cause config loss by itself.

After that you can change the name of the device (anything but the default) or Tasmoticz will not touch it.

I am not sure Tasmoticz will pick up the pin as sensor. Maybe I have to adapt the coding. But first tasmota side needs to work stable
