Thing: Shelly via MQTT

[rossko57]

Yes, when you split your things files you must add an extra parameter to give it clue about which broker to use, in round brackets.

Things files with MQTT 2.4

I did a bit more digging and it seems that the system creates a second MQTT client (Bridge?) at restart and the two clients are conflicting? What is the syntax to define an existing bridge for a Things file? I saw Thing mqtt:topic:myTopic (mqtt:broker:theBroker) {….} somewhere in the documentation but VSCode does not seem to like it. Again I am asking for how to define a Thing in a separate Thing file using an existing broker.
