MQTT Publisher
##############
Overview
********
`MQTT `_ (MQ Telemetry Transport) is a lightweight
publish/subscribe messaging protocol optimized for small sensors and
mobile devices.
The Zephyr MQTT Publisher sample application is a MQTT v3.1.1
client that sends MQTT PUBLISH messages to a MQTT broker.
See the `MQTT V3.1.1 spec`_ for more information.
.. _MQTT V3.1.1 spec: http://docs.oasis-open.org/mqtt/mqtt/v3.1.1/mqtt-v3.1.1.html
The source code of this sample application can be found at:
:file:`samples/net/mqtt_publisher`.
Requirements
************
- Linux machine
- Freedom Board (FRDM-K64F)
- Mosquitto server: any version that supports MQTT v3.1.1. This sample
was tested with mosquitto 1.3.4.
- Mosquitto subscriber
- LAN for testing purposes (Ethernet)
Build and Running
*****************
Currently, this sample application only supports static IP addresses.
Open the :file:`src/config.h` file and set the IP addresses according
to the LAN environment.
Alternatively, set the IP addresses in the :file:`prj_frdm_k64f.conf` file.
This file :file:`src/config.h` also contains some variables that may be changed:
MQTT broker TCP port:
.. code-block:: c
#define SERVER_PORT 1883
Application sleep time:
.. code-block:: c
#define APP_SLEEP_MSECS 500
Application RX and TX timeout:
.. code-block:: c
#define APP_TX_RX_TIMEOUT 300
Max number of connection tries:
.. code-block:: c
#define APP_CONNECT_TRIES 10
Max number of MQTT PUBLISH iterations:
.. code-block:: c
#define APP_MAX_ITERATIONS 5
MQTT Client Identifier:
.. code-block:: c
#define MQTT_CLIENTID "zephyr_publisher"
This sample application supports the IBM Bluemix Watson topic format that can
be enabled by changing the default value of APP_BLUEMIX_TOPIC from 0 to 1:
.. code-block:: c
#define APP_BLUEMIX_TOPIC 1
The Bluemix topic may include some parameters like device type, device
identifier, event type and message format. This application uses the
following macros to specify those values:
.. code-block:: c
#define BLUEMIX_DEVTYPE "sensor"
#define BLUEMIX_DEVID "carbon"
#define BLUEMIX_EVENT "status"
#define BLUEMIX_FORMAT "json"
On your Linux host computer, open a terminal window, locate the source code
of this sample application (i.e. :file:`samples/net/mqtt_publisher`) and type:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/net/mqtt_publisher
:board: frdm_k64f
:goals: build flash
:compact:
Open another terminal window and type:
.. code-block:: console
$ sudo mosquitto -v -p 1883
Open another terminal window and type:
.. code-block:: console
$ mosquitto_sub -t sensors

Bye!
The line:
.. code-block:: console
[try_to_connect:220] mqtt_connect: -5
means that an error was detected and a new connect message will be sent.
The MQTT API is asynchronous, so messages are displayed as the callbacks are
executed.
This is the information that the subscriber will receive:
.. code-block:: console
$ mosquitto_sub -t sensors

This is the output from the MQTT broker:
