Log MQTT to MySQL

Logs all or selected MQTT activity to a MySQL database.

By default logs everything - change the topic in the MQTT node to be more selective (e.g. "my\path\#" or "my\topic")

MySQL table needs the following columns:

  • id (integer, autoincrement) (optional)
  • timestamp (date-time)
  • topic (string 200)
  • data (string 200)

Requires node-red-node-mysql and configuration of your MQTT and MySQL server details
