8-----------------------------------------------------------------
91. Initial steps, reserve memory and make connection to server:
10
111.1: Provide storage
12
13Static allocation:
14  mqtt_client_t static_client;
15  example_do_connect(&static_client);
16
17Dynamic allocation:
18  mqtt_client_t *client = mqtt_client_new();
19  if(client != NULL) {
20    example_do_connect(&client);
21  }
22
231.2: Establish Connection with server
24
25void example_do_connect(mqtt_client_t *client)
26{
27  struct mqtt_connect_client_info_t ci;
28  err_t err;
29
30  /* Setup an empty client info structure */
31  memset(&ci, 0, sizeof(ci));
32
33  /* Minimal amount of information required is client identifier, so set it here */
34  ci.client_id = "lwip_test";
35
36  /* Initiate client and connect to server, if this fails immediately an error code is returned
37     otherwise mqtt_connection_cb will be called with connection result after attempting
38     to establish a connection with the server.
39     For now MQTT version 3.1.1 is always used */
40
41  err = mqtt_client_connect(client, ip_addr, MQTT_PORT, mqtt_connection_cb, 0, &ci);
42
43  /* For now just print the result code if something goes wrong
44  if(err != ERR_OK) {
45    printf("mqtt_connect return %d\n", err);
46  }
47}
48
49Connection to server can also be probed by calling mqtt_client_is_connected(client)
50
51-----------------------------------------------------------------
522. Implementing the connection status callback
53
54
55static void mqtt_connection_cb(mqtt_client_t *client, void *arg, mqtt_connection_status_t status)
56{
57  err_t err;
58  if(status == MQTT_CONNECT_ACCEPTED) {
59    printf("mqtt_connection_cb: Successfully connected\n");
60
61    /* Setup callback for incoming publish requests */
62    mqtt_set_inpub_callback(client, mqtt_incoming_publish_cb, mqtt_incoming_data_cb, arg);
63
64    /* Subscribe to a topic named "subtopic" with QoS level 1, call mqtt_sub_request_cb with result */
65    err = mqtt_subscribe(client, "subtopic", 1, mqtt_sub_request_cb, arg);
66
67    if(err != ERR_OK) {
68      printf("mqtt_subscribe return: %d\n", err);
69    }
70  } else {
71    printf("mqtt_connection_cb: Disconnected, reason: %d\n", status);
72
73    /* Its more nice to be connected, so try to reconnect */
74    example_do_connect(client);
75  }
76}
77
78static void mqtt_sub_request_cb(void *arg, err_t result)
79{
80  /* Just print the result code here for simplicity,
81     normal behaviour would be to take some action if subscribe fails like
82     notifying user, retry subscribe or disconnect from server */
83  printf("Subscribe result: %d\n", result);
84}
85
86-----------------------------------------------------------------
873. Implementing callbacks for incoming publish and data
88
89/* The idea is to demultiplex topic and create some reference to be used in data callbacks
90   Example here uses a global variable, better would be to use a member in arg
91   If RAM and CPU budget allows it, the easiest implementation might be to just take a copy of
92   the topic string and use it in mqtt_incoming_data_cb
93*/
94static int inpub_id;
95static void mqtt_incoming_publish_cb(void *arg, const char *topic, u32_t tot_len)
96{
97  printf("Incoming publish at topic %s with total length %u\n", topic, (unsigned int)tot_len);
98
99  /* Decode topic string into a user defined reference */
100  if(strcmp(topic, "print_payload") == 0) {
101    inpub_id = 0;
102  } else if(topic[0] == 'A') {
103    /* All topics starting with 'A' might be handled at the same way */
104    inpub_id = 1;
105  } else {
106    /* For all other topics */
107    inpub_id = 2;
108  }
109}
110
111static void mqtt_incoming_data_cb(void *arg, const u8_t *data, u16_t len, u8_t flags)
112{
113  printf("Incoming publish payload with length %d, flags %u\n", len, (unsigned int)flags);
114
115  if(flags & MQTT_DATA_FLAG_LAST) {
116    /* Last fragment of payload received (or whole part if payload fits receive buffer
117       See MQTT_VAR_HEADER_BUFFER_LEN)  */
118
119    /* Call function or do action depending on reference, in this case inpub_id */
120    if(inpub_id == 0) {
121      /* Don't trust the publisher, check zero termination */
122      if(data[len-1] == 0) {
123        printf("mqtt_incoming_data_cb: %s\n", (const char *)data);
124      }
125    } else if(inpub_id == 1) {
126      /* Call an 'A' function... */
127    } else {
128      printf("mqtt_incoming_data_cb: Ignoring payload...\n");
129    }
130  } else {
131    /* Handle fragmented payload, store in buffer, write to file or whatever */
132  }
133}
134
135-----------------------------------------------------------------
1364. Using outgoing publish
137
138
139void example_publish(mqtt_client_t *client, void *arg)
140{
141  const char *pub_payload= "PubSubHubLubJub";
142  err_t err;
143  u8_t qos = 2; /* 0 1 or 2, see MQTT specification */
144  u8_t retain = 0; /* No don't retain such crappy payload... */
145  err = mqtt_publish(client, "pub_topic", pub_payload, strlen(pub_payload), qos, retain, mqtt_pub_request_cb, arg);
146  if(err != ERR_OK) {
147    printf("Publish err: %d\n", err);
148  }
149}
150
151/* Called when publish is complete either with sucess or failure */
152static void mqtt_pub_request_cb(void *arg, err_t result)
153{
154  if(result != ERR_OK) {
155    printf("Publish result: %d\n", result);
156  }
157}
158
159-----------------------------------------------------------------
1605. Disconnecting
161
162Simply call mqtt_disconnect(client)
163
