Call a bash script on action

[atuxnull]

Hi there. I am running Freeboard on my Raspberry PI along with Mosquitto (MQTT broker). I have a few reed switches to monitor the status of doors/windows around the house and i present their status on Freeboard. So far so good.
I would like to call a script when there reed switch is open eg /home/pi/scripts/door_open.sh
How can i do that please?

You can create a MQTT client script https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/188525/how-to-subscribe-a-bash-script-as-a-mqtt-client that subscribes to a topic on reed switch openings or use node-red or ifttt to create subscribe nodes that trigger script nodes. https://creativedata.stream/iot-with-node-red-and-python/
