Arduino Client for MQTT
This library provides a client for doing simple publish/subscribe messaging with a server that supports MQTT.
Examples
The library comes with a number of example sketches. See File > Examples > PubSubClient within the Arduino application.
Full API documentation is available here: https://pubsubclient.knolleary.net
Limitations
- It can only publish QoS 0 messages. It can subscribe at QoS 0 or QoS 1.
- The maximum message size, including header, is 256 bytes by default. This
is configurable via
MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE
inPubSubClient.h
or can be changed by callingPubSubClient::setBufferSize(size)
. - The keepalive interval is set to 15 seconds by default. This is configurable
via
MQTT_KEEPALIVE
inPubSubClient.h
or can be changed by callingPubSubClient::setKeepAlive(keepAlive)
. - The client uses MQTT 3.1.1 by default. It can be changed to use MQTT 3.1 by
changing value of
MQTT_VERSION
inPubSubClient.h
.
Compatible Hardware
The library uses the Arduino Ethernet Client api for interacting with the underlying network hardware. This means it Just Works with a growing number of boards and shields, including:
- Arduino Ethernet
- Arduino Ethernet Shield
- Arduino YUN – use the included
YunClient
in place ofEthernetClient
, and be sure to do aBridge.begin()
first - Arduino WiFi Shield - if you want to send packets > 90 bytes with this shield,
enable the
MQTT_MAX_TRANSFER_SIZE
define inPubSubClient.h
. - Sparkfun WiFly Shield – library
- TI CC3000 WiFi - library
- Intel Galileo/Edison
- ESP8266
- ESP32
The library cannot currently be used with hardware based on the ENC28J60 chip – such as the Nanode or the Nuelectronics Ethernet Shield. For those, there is an alternative library available.
