Filter does not act as expected

re: https://github.com/jpmens/mqttwarn/wiki/Filtering

I have a simple filter defined in the [defaults] section of mqttwarn.ini

def logging_filter(topic, message):
  return True

The goal: prove filtering works by denying all messages.

Later in the file, we have:

[logging/hare]
targets = pushover:pam, log:crit, file:mylog
title: SSH login on {hostname}
filter = logging_filter()
format = User {user} logged into {hostname} from {rhost} at {_dthhmmss}

The function should suppress all incoming logging/hare messages.

No logging/hare messages are being suppressed.

EDIT: Change return value to True

SUCCESS.

I will fix the docs.

Ah - I missed the fact you have this in your INI file. Functions need to live in a separate functions.py file, which is defined in your INI file. See https://github.com/jpmens/mqttwarn#the-defaults-section.
