Steps
Flash the ratgdo board with the mqtt-ratgdo firmware and configure your MQTT broker host, credentials, and a Device Name/MQTT Prefix.
Subscribe to <prefix>/<device-name>/status/door for door state changes: opening, open, closing, closed.
Subscribe to <prefix>/<device-name>/status/obstruction for obstructed/clear events from the opener's safety sensor.
Publish "open" or "close" to <prefix>/<device-name>/command/door to actuate the door.
Integrate directly with Node-RED, Home Assistant's MQTT cover, or any MQTT-capable automation platform using these topics.
Known gotchas
Topic paths are built from the MQTT Prefix and Device Name you configure, not a fixed string — verify them against your own config rather than assuming defaults.
mqtt-ratgdo is a separate firmware/topic set from the ESPHome-based esphome-ratgdo project; pick one integration path per device, not both.
