MQTT client/server for C++14 based on Boost.Asio

Version 1.0.8

Overview

mqtt_cpp is a header only library. It requires C++14 and the Boost Libraries 1.57.0 or later (See #33). The only feature that mqtt_cpp uses C++14 is binary literals. e.g.) 0b00001111

You may be able to use mqtt_cpp on C++11 with binary literal extension environment such as g++ and clang++.

Add mqtt_cpp/include to your include path. Then, include mqtt_cpp.hpp and/or mqtt_server_cpp.hpp as follows:

For clients:

#include <mqtt_client_cpp.hpp>

For servers:

#include <mqtt_server_cpp.hpp>

You can compile your program as follows:

g++ -std=c++14 -Ipath_to_mqtt_cpp/include -DMQTT_NO_TLS no_tls.cpp -lboost_system -lpthread

g++ -std=c++14 -Ipath_to_mqtt_cpp/include tls.cpp -lboost_system -lssl -lcrypto -lpthread

WebSocket support

If you want to use MQTT on WebSocket, you need to define MQTT_USE_WS macro. mqtt_cpp uses https://github.com/boostorg/beast for WebSocket communication and it requires boost::string_view, so the boost library need to support boost::string_view.

Example

• NO TLS
  • Client
    • TCP
      • example/no_tls_client.cpp
    • WebSocket
      • example/no_tls_ws_client.cpp
  • Server
    • TCP
      • example/no_tls_server.cpp
    • WebSocket
      • example/no_tls_ws_server.cpp
  • Client and Server
    • TCP
      • example/no_tls_both.cpp
    • WebSocket
      • example/no_tls_ws_both.cpp
• TLS
  • Client
    • TCP
      • example/tls_client.cpp
    • WebSocket
      • example/tls_ws_client.cpp
  • Server
    • TCP

  • Client and Server
    • TCP
      • example/tls_both.cpp
    • WebSocket
      • example/tls_ws_both.cpp

Test

You can build tests and examples as follows:

At mqtt_cpp directory

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make test

In order to build tests, you need to prepare the Boost Libraries 1.59.0.
