# MQTT Module | Since | Origin / Contributor | Maintainer | Source | | :----- | :-------------------- | :---------- | :------ | | 2015-01-23 | [Stephen Robinson](https://github.com/esar/contiki-mqtt), [Tuan PM](https://github.com/tuanpmt/esp_mqtt) | [Vowstar](https://github.com/vowstar) | [mqtt.c](../../../app/modules/mqtt.c)| The client adheres to version 3.1.1 of the [MQTT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQTT) protocol. Make sure that your broker supports and is correctly configured for version 3.1.1. The client is backwards incompatible with brokers running MQTT 3.1. ## mqtt.Client() Creates a MQTT client. #### Syntax `mqtt.Client(clientid, keepalive, username, password[, cleansession])` #### Parameters - `clientid` client ID - `keepalive` keepalive seconds - `username` user name - `password` user password - `cleansession` 0/1 for `false`/`true` #### Returns MQTT client #### Example ```lua -- init mqtt client with keepalive timer 120sec m = mqtt.Client("clientid", 120, "user", "password") -- setup Last Will and Testament (optional) -- Broker will publish a message with qos = 0, retain = 0, data = "offline" -- to topic "/lwt" if client don't send keepalive packet m:lwt("/lwt", "offline", 0, 0) m:on("connect", function(client) print ("connected") end) m:on("offline", function(client) print ("offline") end) -- on publish message receive event m:on("message", function(client, topic, data) print(topic .. ":" ) if data ~= nil then print(data) end end) -- for TLS: m:connect("192.168.11.118", secure-port, 1) m:connect("192.168.11.118", 1883, 0, function(client) print("connected") end, function(client, reason) print("failed reason: "..reason) end) -- Calling subscribe/publish only makes sense once the connection -- was successfully established. In a real-world application you want -- move those into the 'connect' callback or make otherwise sure the -- connection was established. -- subscribe topic with qos = 0 m:subscribe("/topic",0, function(client) print("subscribe success") end) -- publish a message with data = hello, QoS = 0, retain = 0 m:publish("/topic","hello",0,0, function(client) print("sent") end) m:close(); -- you can call m:connect again ``` # MQTT Client ## mqtt.client:close() Closes connection to the broker. #### Syntax `mqtt:close()` #### Parameters none #### Returns `true` on success, `false` otherwise ## mqtt.client:connect() Connects to the broker specified by the given host, port, and secure options. #### Syntax `mqtt:connect(host[, port[, secure[, autoreconnect]]][, function(client)[, function(client, reason)]])` #### Parameters - `host` host, domain or IP (string) - `port` broker port (number), default 1883 - `secure` 0/1 for `false`/`true`, default 0. [As per #996](https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firmware/issues/996#issuecomment-178053308) secure connections use **TLS 1.1** with the following cipher suites: `TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA`, `TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA`, `TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA`, and `TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5`. - `autoreconnect` 0/1 for `false`/`true`, default 0 - `function(client)` callback function for when the connection was established - `function(client, reason)` callback function for when the connection could not be established #### Returns `true` on success, `false` otherwise #### Connection failure callback reason codes: | Constant | Value | Description | |----------|-------|-------------| |`mqtt.CONN_FAIL_SERVER_NOT_FOUND`|-5|There is no broker listening at the specified IP Address and Port| |`mqtt.CONN_FAIL_NOT_A_CONNACK_MSG`|-4|The response from the broker was not a CONNACK as required by the protocol| |`mqtt.CONN_FAIL_DNS`|-3|DNS Lookup failed| |`mqtt.CONN_FAIL_TIMEOUT_RECEIVING`|-2|Timeout waiting for a CONNACK from the broker| |`mqtt.CONN_FAIL_TIMEOUT_SENDING`|-1|Timeout trying to send the Connect message| |`mqtt.CONNACK_ACCEPTED`|0|No errors. _Note: This will not trigger a failure callback._| |`mqtt.CONNACK_REFUSED_PROTOCOL_VER`|1|The broker is not a 3.1.1 MQTT broker.| |`mqtt.CONNACK_REFUSED_ID_REJECTED`|2|The specified ClientID was rejected by the broker. (See `mqtt.Client()`)| |`mqtt.CONNACK_REFUSED_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE`|3|The server is unavailable.| |`mqtt.CONNACK_REFUSED_BAD_USER_OR_PASS`|4|The broker refused the specified username or password.| |`mqtt.CONNACK_REFUSED_NOT_AUTHORIZED`|5|The username is not authorized.| ## mqtt.client:lwt() Setup [Last Will and Testament](http://www.hivemq.com/blog/mqtt-essentials-part-9-last-will-and-testament) (optional). A broker will publish a message with qos = 0, retain = 0, data = "offline" to topic "/lwt" if client does not send keepalive packet. #### Syntax `mqtt:lwt(topic, message[, qos[, retain]])` #### Parameters - `topic` the topic to publish to (string) - `message` the message to publish, (buffer or string) - `qos` QoS level, default 0 - `retain` retain flag, default 0 #### Returns `nil` ## mqtt.client:on() Registers a callback function for an event. #### Syntax `mqtt:on(event, function(client[, topic[, message]]))` #### Parameters - `event` can be "connect", "message" or "offline" - `function(client[, topic[, message]])` callback function. The first parameter is the client. If event is "message", the 2nd and 3rd param are received topic and message (strings). #### Returns `nil` ## mqtt.client:publish() Publishes a message. #### Syntax `mqtt:publish(topic, payload, qos, retain[, function(client)])` #### Parameters - `topic` the topic to publish to ([topic string](http://www.hivemq.com/blog/mqtt-essentials-part-5-mqtt-topics-best-practices)) - `message` the message to publish, (buffer or string) - `qos` QoS level - `retain` retain flag - `function(client)` optional callback fired when PUBACK received. NOTE: When calling publish() more than once, the last callback function defined will be called for ALL publish commands. #### Returns `true` on success, `false` otherwise ## mqtt.client:subscribe() Subscribes to one or several topics. #### Syntax `mqtt:subscribe(topic, qos[, function(client)])` `mqtt:subscribe(table[, function(client)])` #### Parameters - `topic` a [topic string](http://www.hivemq.com/blog/mqtt-essentials-part-5-mqtt-topics-best-practices) - `qos` QoS subscription level, default 0 - `table` array of 'topic, qos' pairs to subscribe to - `function(client)` optional callback fired when subscription(s) succeeded. NOTE: When calling subscribe() more than once, the last callback function defined will be called for ALL subscribe commands. #### Returns `true` on success, `false` otherwise #### Example ```lua -- subscribe topic with qos = 0 m:subscribe("/topic",0, function(conn) print("subscribe success") end) -- or subscribe multiple topic (topic/0, qos = 0; topic/1, qos = 1; topic2 , qos = 2) m:subscribe({["topic/0"]=0,["topic/1"]=1,topic2=2}, function(conn) print("subscribe success") end) ``` ## mqtt.client:unsubscribe() Unsubscribes from one or several topics. #### Syntax `mqtt:unsubscribe(topic[, function(client)])` `mqtt:unsubscribe(table[, function(client)])` #### Parameters - `topic` a [topic string](http://www.hivemq.com/blog/mqtt-essentials-part-5-mqtt-topics-best-practices) - `table` array of 'topic, anything' pairs to unsubscribe from - `function(client)` optional callback fired when unsubscription(s) succeeded. NOTE: When calling unsubscribe() more than once, the last callback function defined will be called for ALL unsubscribe commands. #### Returns `true` on success, `false` otherwise #### Example ```lua -- unsubscribe topic m:unsubscribe("/topic", function(conn) print("unsubscribe success") end) -- or unsubscribe multiple topic (topic/0; topic/1; topic2) m:unsubscribe({["topic/0"]=0,["topic/1"]=0,topic2="anything"}, function(conn) print("unsubscribe success") end) ```
