Subscribe Device Event

If your device's capabilities include 'devices.capabilities.event', then you can listen for the event in the following ways.

Connection parameters:

Host: mqtts://mqtt.openapi.govee.com

Port: 8883

Username: [Your Api-Key]

Password: [Your Api-Key]

Topic: GA/ [Your Api-Key]

For example:

const mqtt = require('mqtt')
const apiKey = [Your Api-Key];  
const emqx_url = 'mqtt.openapi.govee.com';  

const options = {  
    clean: true,  
    username: apiKey,  
    password: apiKey,  
}

const connectUrl = 'mqtts://' + emqx_url  
const client = mqtt.connect(connectUrl, options)

client.on('connect', () => {  
    console.log('Connected to the broker.')  
    client.subscribe(apiKey, (err) => {  
        if (!err) {  
            console.log('Subscribed to topic apiKey')  
        }  
    })  
})

client.on('message', (topic, message) => {  
    console.log(`Received message ${message} from topic ${topic}`)  
})
