Mqtt_consumer with multiple value types

Thanks Noah.

We already have an infrastructure which allows users and services to query the data types of the different topics.

Telegraf/influx is simply an add-on we’d like to support. We don’t want to have to rewrite/regenerate a config file every time the data structure changes.

For now a custom parser will do the job. If we continue to use telegraf/influx I guess we’ll look at writing our own mqtt plugin - I’m not over-happy at the limited topic-mapping options in the current plugin anyway.

Cheers

Dave
