TinyMqtt is a small, fast and capable Mqtt Broker and Client for Esp8266 / Esp32 / Esp WROOM
## Features
- Very (very !!) fast broker I saw it re-sent 1000 topics per second for two
clients that had subscribed (payload ~15 bytes ESP8266). No topic lost.
The max I've seen was 2k msg/s (1 client 1 subscription)
- Act as as a mqtt broker and/or a mqtt client
- Mqtt 3.1.1 / Qos 0 supported
- Standalone (can work without WiFi) (degraded/local mode)
- Brokers can connect to another broker and becomes then a
proxy for clients that are connected to it.
- zeroconf, this is a strange but very powerful mode where
all brokers tries to connect together on the same local network.
## Quickstart
* install [TinyMqtt library](https://github.com/hsaturn/TinyMqtt)
(you can use the Arduino library manager and search for TinyMqtt)
* modify <libraries/TinyMqtt/src/my_credentials.h> (wifi setup)
## Examples
| Example | Description |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| client-without-wifi | standalone example |
| simple-client | Connect the ESP to an external Mqtt broker |
| simple-broker | Simple Mqtt broker with your ESP |
| tinymqtt-test | Complex console example |
- tinymqtt-test : This is a complex sketch with a terminal console
that allows to add clients publish, connect etc with interpreted commands.
## Standalone mode (zeroconf)
-> The zeroconf mode is not yet implemented
zeroconf clients to connect to broker on local network.
In Zeroconf mode, each ESP is a a broker and scans the local network.
After a while one ESP naturally becomes a 'master' and all ESP are connected together.
No problem if the master dies, a new master will be choosen soon.
## TODO List
* ~~Use [Async library](https://github.com/me-no-dev/ESPAsyncTCP)~~
* Implement zeroconf mode (needs async)
* Add a max_clients in MqttBroker. Used with zeroconf, there will be
no need for having tons of clients (also RAM is the problem with many clients)
* Why not a 'global' TinyMqtt::loop() instead of having to call loop for all broker/clients instances
* Test what is the real max number of clients for broker. As far as I saw, 1k is needed per client which would make more than 30 clients critical.
* ~~MqttClient auto re-subscribe (::resubscribe works bad on broker.emqx.io)~~
* MqttClient auto reconnection
* MqttClient user/password
* Wildcards (I may implement only # as I'm not interrested by a clever and cpu consuming matching)
* I suspect that MqttClient::parent could be removed and replaced with a simple boolean
(this'll need to rewrite a few functions)
