Hi,

I installed http_to_mqtt in a docker container with this image: https://github.com/MiGoller/docker-http-mqtt-bridge

Startup looks fine:
2019-07-21T16:07:44: PM2 log: Launching in no daemon mode
2019-07-21T16:07:44: PM2 log: App [HTTP-To-MQTT-Bridge:0] starting in -fork mode-
2019-07-21T16:07:44: PM2 log: App [HTTP-To-MQTT-Bridge:0] online
Node app is running on port 5000

but if I post a message I get this error:

Received request [/post] from [::ffff:192.168.xxx.xxx].
quest is not authorized.

Do you have any idea what this problem is?

Best regards from Germany
Michael

When you send the request, make sure you pass along the key.

For example,
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" "http://localhost:5000/post" -d '{"topic" : "MyTopic", "message" : "Hello World", "key" : "THE_AUTH_KEY_YOU_SET_WHEN_YOU_LAUNCHED_THE_CONTAINER"}'

Hi

I get it to work using above example and curl no problem. How would I use it in a browser by just typing the http?

Example:

http://192.168.1.65:5000/post?topic=cmnd/lamp/power&message=1&key=secretkey123

but all i get is:

Cannot GET /post?topic=cmnd/lamp/power&message=1&key=secretkey123

Please help!

Thanks

This is a HTTP POST request, you can't do that by typing this URL in the browser.

Try changing line 110 in index.js to app.get
