App sends continuously your position (position of device) to some specific server. In our case it will be yunkong2 server.
The MQTT protocol will be used for communication.
##Usage
OwnTracks Adapter starts on port 1883 (configurable) a MQTT server to receive the messages from devices with coordinates.
The problem is that this server must be reachable from internet.
Normally there is a router or firewall, that must be configured to forward traffic.
Settings in App:
- Connection/Mode - MQTT private
- Connection/Host/Host - IP address of your system or DynDNS domain. E.g. http://www.noip.com/ lets use domain name instead of IP address.
- Connection/Host/Port - 1883 or your port on your router
- Connection/Host/WebSockets - false
- Connection/Identification/Username - yunkong2
- Connection/Identification/Password - from adapter settings
- Connection/Identification/DeviceID - Name of device or person. For this device the states will be created. E.g. if deviceID is "Mark", following states will be created after first contact:
- owntracks.0.users.Mark.longitude
- owntracks.0.users.Mark.latitude
- Connection/Identification/TrackerID - Short name of user (up to 2 letters) to write it on map.
- Connection/Security/TLS - off
### Icons
You can define for every user an icon. Just upload per drag&drop or with mouse click you image. It will be automatically scaled to 64x64.
The name must be equal to DeviceID in OwnTracks app.
