This is a skill written for mycroft to publish commands over an mqtt broker for home automation or any other purpose.

Currently it will publish the action to a topic built from the commands said, for example

• say hey mycroft, turn the light on and mycroft will publish on to light/turn.
• say hey mycroft, switch the tv on and mycroft will publish on to tv/switch.

• "Command vacuum to return home."
• "Turn the light on."
• "Switch the tv on."

Add the following lines to your settings.json and adjust to your needs. If you are using SSL and a self signed certificate you will need to change mqttca to the location of your cerftificate, Or you can add it the default trusted certificates.

• Copy your certificate to directory:sudo cp yourcert.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/yourcert.crt
• Update the CA store:sudo update-ca-certificates

    "mqttca": "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt",
    "mqtthost": "example.com",
    "mqttport": 8883,
    "mqttuser": "user",
    "mqttpass": "pass"

Thats it, now start mycroft and start turning your light on and off.
