Eclipse Paho MQTT Go client
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
This repository contains the source code for the [Eclipse Paho](https://eclipse.org/paho) MQTT 3.1/3.11 Go client library.
|
|
|
|
This code builds a library which enable applications to connect to an [MQTT](https://mqtt.org) broker to publish
|
|
messages, and to subscribe to topics and receive published messages.
|
|
|
|
This library supports a fully asynchronous mode of operation.
|
|
|
|
A client supporting MQTT V5 is [also available](https://github.com/eclipse/paho.golang).
|
|
|
|
Installation and Build
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
The process depends upon whether you are using [modules](https://golang.org/ref/mod) (recommended) or `GOPATH`.
|
|
|
|
#### Modules
|
|
|
|
If you are using [modules](https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules) then `import "github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.golang"`
|
|
and start using it. The necessary packages will be download automatically when you run `go build`.
|
|
|
|
Note that the latest release will be downloaded and changes may have been made since the release. If you have
|
|
encountered an issue, or wish to try the latest code for another reason, then run
|
|
`go get github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.golang@master` to get the latest commit.
|
|
|
|
#### GOPATH
|
|
|
|
Installation is as easy as:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
go get github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.golang
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The client depends on Google's [proxy](https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/net/proxy) package and the
|
|
[websockets](https://godoc.org/github.com/gorilla/websocket) package, also easily installed with the commands:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
go get github.com/gorilla/websocket
|
|
go get golang.org/x/net/proxy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage and API
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Detailed API documentation is available by using to godoc tool, or can be browsed online
|
|
using the [pkg.go.dev](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.golang) service.
|
|
|
|
Samples are available in the `cmd` directory for reference.
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
|
|
The library also supports using MQTT over websockets by using the `ws://` (unsecure) or `wss://` (secure) prefix in the
|
|
URI. If the client is running behind a corporate http/https proxy then the following environment variables `HTTP_PROXY`,
|
|
`HTTPS_PROXY` and `NO_PROXY` are taken into account when establishing the connection.
|
|
|
|
Troubleshooting
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
If you are new to MQTT and your application is not working as expected reviewing the
|
|
[MQTT specification](https://docs.oasis-open.org/mqtt/mqtt/v3.1.1/os/mqtt-v3.1.1-os.html), which this library implements,
|
|
is a good first step. [MQTT.org](https://mqtt.org) has some [good resources](https://mqtt.org/getting-started/) that answer many
|
|
common questions.
|
|
|
|
### Error Handling
|
|
|
|
The asynchronous nature of this library makes it easy to forget to check for errors. Consider using a go routine to
|
|
log these:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
t := client.Publish("topic", qos, retained, msg)
|
|
go func() {
|
|
_ = t.Wait() // Can also use '<-t.Done()' in releases > 1.2.0
|
|
if t.Error() != nil {
|
|
log.Error(t.Error()) // Use your preferred logging technique (or just fmt.Printf)
|
|
}
|
|
}()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Logging
|
|
|
|
If you are encountering issues then enabling logging, both within this library and on your broker, is a good way to
|
|
begin troubleshooting. This library can produce various levels of log by assigning the logging endpoints, ERROR,
|
|
CRITICAL, WARN and DEBUG. For example:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
func main() {
|
|
mqtt.ERROR = log.New(os.Stdout, "[ERROR] ", 0)
|
|
mqtt.CRITICAL = log.New(os.Stdout, "[CRIT] ", 0)
|
|
mqtt.WARN = log.New(os.Stdout, "[WARN] ", 0)
|
|
mqtt.DEBUG = log.New(os.Stdout, "[DEBUG] ", 0)
|
|
|
|
// Connect, Subscribe, Publish etc..
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Common Problems
|
|
|
|
* Seemingly random disconnections may be caused by another client connecting to the broker with the same client
|
|
identifier; this is as per the [spec](https://docs.oasis-open.org/mqtt/mqtt/v3.1.1/os/mqtt-v3.1.1-os.html#_Toc384800405).
|
|
* A `MessageHandler` (called when a new message is received) must not block. If you wish to perform a long-running task,
|
|
or publish a message, then please use a go routine (blocking in the handler is a common cause of unexpected `pingresp
|
|
not received, disconnecting` errors).
|
|
* When QOS1+ subscriptions have been created previously and you connect with `CleanSession` set to false it is possible that the broker will deliver retained
|
|
messages before `Subscribe` can be called. To process these messages either configure a handler with `AddRoute` or
|
|
set a `DefaultPublishHandler`.
|
|
* Loss of network connectivity may not be detected immediately. If this is an issue then consider setting
|
|
`ClientOptions.KeepAlive` (sends regular messages to check the link is active).
|
|
* Brokers offer many configuration options; some settings may lead to unexpected results. If using Mosquitto check
|
|
`max_inflight_messages`, `max_queued_messages`, `persistence` (the defaults may not be what you expect).
|
|
|
|
Reporting bugs
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Please report bugs by raising issues for this project in github https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.golang/issues
|
|
|
|
*A limited number of contributors monitor the issues section so if you have a general question please consider the
|
|
resources in the [more information](#more-information) section (your question will be seen by more people, and you are
|
|
likely to receive an answer more quickly).*
|
|
|
|
We welcome bug reports, but it is important they are actionable. A significant percentage of issues reported are not
|
|
resolved due to a lack of information. If we cannot replicate the problem then it is unlikely we will be able to fix it.
|
|
The information required will vary from issue to issue but consider including:
|
|
|
|
* Which version of the package you are using (tag or commit - this should be in your go.mod file)
|
|
* A [Minimal, Reproducible Example](https://stackoverflow.com/help/minimal-reproducible-example). Providing an example
|
|
is the best way to demonstrate the issue you are facing; it is important this includes all relevant information
|
|
(including broker configuration). Docker (see `cmd/docker`) makes it relatively simple to provide a working end-to-end
|
|
example.
|
|
* A full, clear, description of the problem (detail what you are expecting vs what actually happens).
|
|
* Details of your attempts to resolve the issue (what have you tried, what worked, what did not).
|
|
* [Application Logs](#logging) covering the period the issue occurred. Unless you have isolated the root cause of the issue please include a link to a full log (including data from well before the problem arose).
|
|
* Broker Logs covering the period the issue occurred.
|
|
|
|
It is important to remember that this library does not stand alone; it communicates with a broker and any issues you are
|
|
seeing may be due to:
|
|
|
|
* Bugs in your code.
|
|
* Bugs in this library.
|
|
* The broker configuration.
|
|
* Bugs in the broker.
|
|
* Issues with whatever you are communicating with.
|
|
|
|
When submitting an issue, please ensure that you provide sufficient details to enable us to eliminate causes outside of
|
|
this library.
