#rust-mqtt This library is a Rust wrapper around paho.mqtt.c lib. Currently only async lib is implemented.

Dependencies

Build paho.mqtt.c lib from develop branch.

cd ~/Downloads
git clone https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.c.git
cd paho.mqtt.c
git checkout develop
make
sudo make install

Mac OS X

Rust-mqtt links to libpaho-mqtt3a. Mac OS X is not able find it from original files therefore create symlinks:

ln -s /usr/local/lib/libpaho-mqtt3a.so.1.0 /usr/local/lib/libpaho-mqtt3a.dylib
ln -s /usr/local/lib/libpaho-mqtt3a.so.1.0 /usr/local/lib/libpaho-mqtt3a.so.1

Usage

Put this in your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies.mqtt]
git = "https://github.com/cubehub/rust-mqtt.git"

And this in your crate root:

extern crate mqtt;

Examples

Install and start mosquitto broker.

Mac OS X

brew install mosquitto
/usr/local/sbin/mosquitto

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install mosquitto mosquitto-clients
mosquitto

Start rust-mqtt loopback example:

cargo run --example loopback

For rust-mqtt developers

Tool called rust-bindgen is used to generate Rust functions from C files.

Mac OS X:

echo export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH >> ~/.profile

Build rust-bindgen

git clone https://github.com/crabtw/rust-bindgen.git
cd rust-bindgen
cargo build

Generate Rust bindings

./target/debug/bindgen -l paho-mqtt3a -match MQTTAsync.h -match MQTTClientPersistence.h -o ~/Development/rust-mqtt/src/ffimqttasync.rs  ~/Downloads/paho.mqtt.c/src/MQTTAsync.h

Notice that there are some issues with rust-bindgen generated code for callbacks. Therefore some manual modifications must be made to ffimqttasync.rs. Here is an example how to do it correctly:

• commit: fix ffimqttasync callbacks, rust-bindgen got them wrong
