This is an application that uses the gosense library (https://github.com/dariopb/gosense) to discover and publish sensor information to HA via the HA MQTT Discovery mechanism (https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/mqtt/discovery/) or simply by configuring the sensor info in the HA config file (https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/mqtt).
The configuration file for the application. At least an empty file needs to be provided and it will be populated with default values.
- debuglevel The debug level for tracing info/debug [defaults to info if it is not set]
MQTT section
- clientid The MQTT clientID to use [defaults to "ha-gosenseapp-xxxxx" if it is not set]
- hostname The MQTT server to connect to. Empty disables MQTT [defaults to ""]
- user The MQTT username to use [defaults to "" is not set]
- password The MQTT username to use [defaults to "" is not set]
- port The MQTT port to use [defaults to 1883]
- discoveryTopic The MQTT-DISC for HA topic to use [defaults to "gosense_discovery" if it is not set]
- sensorTopic The MQTT clientID to use [defaults to "gosense" if it is not set]

The application exposes a simple REST API on port 8080 to manipule the sense dongle and get "configuration ready" output to include in the HA conf file.
The endpoint should be: http://hostname:8080/xxx where xxx is as follows.
