typedef void* MQTTClient |
A handle representing an MQTT client. A valid client handle is available following a successful call to MQTTClient_create().
typedef int MQTTClient_deliveryToken |
A value representing an MQTT message. A delivery token is returned to the client application when a message is published. The token can then be used to check that the message was successfully delivered to its destination (see MQTTClient_publish(), MQTTClient_publishMessage(), MQTTClient_deliveryComplete(), MQTTClient_waitForCompletion() and MQTTClient_getPendingDeliveryTokens()).
typedef int MQTTClient_token |
typedef int MQTTClient_messageArrived(void *context, char *topicName, int topicLen, MQTTClient_message *message) |
This is a callback function. The client application must provide an implementation of this function to enable asynchronous receipt of messages. The function is registered with the client library by passing it as an argument to MQTTClient_setCallbacks(). It is called by the client library when a new message that matches a client subscription has been received from the server. This function is executed on a separate thread to the one on which the client application is running.
context | A pointer to the context value originally passed to MQTTClient_setCallbacks(), which contains any application-specific context. |
topicName | The topic associated with the received message. |
topicLen | The length of the topic if there are one more NULL characters embedded in topicName, otherwise topicLen is 0. If topicLen is 0, the value returned by strlen(topicName) can be trusted. If topicLen is greater than 0, the full topic name can be retrieved by accessing topicName as a byte array of length topicLen. |
message | The MQTTClient_message structure for the received message. This structure contains the message payload and attributes. |
typedef void MQTTClient_deliveryComplete(void *context, MQTTClient_deliveryToken dt) |
This is a callback function. The client application must provide an implementation of this function to enable asynchronous notification of delivery of messages. The function is registered with the client library by passing it as an argument to MQTTClient_setCallbacks(). It is called by the client library after the client application has published a message to the server. It indicates that the necessary handshaking and acknowledgements for the requested quality of service (see MQTTClient_message.qos) have been completed. This function is executed on a separate thread to the one on which the client application is running. Note:MQTTClient_deliveryComplete() is not called when messages are published at QoS0.
context | A pointer to the context value originally passed to MQTTClient_setCallbacks(), which contains any application-specific context. |
dt | The MQTTClient_deliveryToken associated with the published message. Applications can check that all messages have been correctly published by matching the delivery tokens returned from calls to MQTTClient_publish() and MQTTClient_publishMessage() with the tokens passed to this callback. |
typedef void MQTTClient_connectionLost(void *context, char *cause) |
This is a callback function. The client application must provide an implementation of this function to enable asynchronous notification of the loss of connection to the server. The function is registered with the client library by passing it as an argument to MQTTClient_setCallbacks(). It is called by the client library if the client loses its connection to the server. The client application must take appropriate action, such as trying to reconnect or reporting the problem. This function is executed on a separate thread to the one on which the client application is running.
context | A pointer to the context value originally passed to MQTTClient_setCallbacks(), which contains any application-specific context. |
cause | The reason for the disconnection. Currently, cause is always set to NULL. |
typedef void MQTTClient_disconnected(void *context, MQTTProperties *properties, enum MQTTReasonCodes reasonCode) |
This is a callback function, which will be called when the a disconnect packet is received from the server. This applies to MQTT V5 and above only.
context | A pointer to the context value originally passed to ::MQTTAsync_setDisconnected(), which contains any application-specific context. |
properties | The MQTT V5 properties received with the disconnect, if any. |
reasonCode | The MQTT V5 reason code received with the disconnect. Currently, cause is always set to NULL. |
typedef void MQTTClient_published(void *context, int dt, int packet_type, MQTTProperties *properties, enum MQTTReasonCodes reasonCode) |
This is a callback function, the MQTT V5 version of MQTTClient_deliveryComplete(). The client application must provide an implementation of this function to enable asynchronous notification of the completed delivery of messages. It is called by the client library after the client application has published a message to the server. It indicates that the necessary handshaking and acknowledgements for the requested quality of service (see MQTTClient_message.qos) have been completed. This function is executed on a separate thread to the one on which the client application is running. Note: It is not called when messages are published at QoS0.
context | A pointer to the context value originally passed to MQTTClient_setCallbacks(), which contains any application-specific context. |
dt | The MQTTClient_deliveryToken associated with the published message. Applications can check that all messages have been correctly published by matching the delivery tokens returned from calls to MQTTClient_publish() and MQTTClient_publishMessage() with the tokens passed to this callback. |
packet_type | the last received packet type for this completion. For QoS 1 always PUBACK. For QoS 2 could be PUBREC or PUBCOMP. |
properties | the MQTT V5 properties returned with the last packet from the server |
reasonCode | the reason code returned from the server |
typedef struct MQTTResponse MQTTResponse |
typedef void MQTTClient_traceCallback(enum MQTTCLIENT_TRACE_LEVELS level, char *message) |
This is a callback function prototype which must be implemented if you want to receive trace information.
level | the trace level of the message returned |
meesage | the trace message. This is a pointer to a static buffer which will be overwritten on each call. You must copy the data if you want to keep it for later. |
void MQTTClient_global_init | ( | MQTTClient_init_options * | inits | ) |
Global init of mqtt library. Call once on program start to set global behaviour. do_openssl_init - if mqtt library should initialize OpenSSL (1) or rely on the caller to do it before using the library (0)
int MQTTClient_setCallbacks | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
void * | context, | ||
MQTTClient_connectionLost * | cl, | ||
MQTTClient_messageArrived * | ma, | ||
MQTTClient_deliveryComplete * | dc | ||
) |
This function sets the callback functions for a specific client. If your client application doesn't use a particular callback, set the relevant parameter to NULL. Calling MQTTClient_setCallbacks() puts the client into multi-threaded mode. Any necessary message acknowledgements and status communications are handled in the background without any intervention from the client application. See Asynchronous vs synchronous client applications for more information.
Note: The MQTT client must be disconnected when this function is called.
handle | A valid client handle from a successful call to MQTTClient_create(). |
context | A pointer to any application-specific context. The the context pointer is passed to each of the callback functions to provide access to the context information in the callback. |
cl | A pointer to an MQTTClient_connectionLost() callback function. You can set this to NULL if your application doesn't handle disconnections. |
ma | A pointer to an MQTTClient_messageArrived() callback function. This callback function must be specified when you call MQTTClient_setCallbacks(). |
dc | A pointer to an MQTTClient_deliveryComplete() callback function. You can set this to NULL if your application publishes synchronously or if you do not want to check for successful delivery. |
int MQTTClient_setDisconnected | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
void * | context, | ||
MQTTClient_disconnected * | co | ||
) |
Sets the MQTTClient_disconnected() callback function for a client. This will be called if a disconnect packet is received from the server. Only valid for MQTT V5 and above.
handle | A valid client handle from a successful call to MQTTClient_create(). |
context | A pointer to any application-specific context. The the context pointer is passed to each of the callback functions to provide access to the context information in the callback. |
co | A pointer to an MQTTClient_disconnected() callback function. NULL removes the callback setting. |
int MQTTClient_setPublished | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
void * | context, | ||
MQTTClient_published * | co | ||
) |
int MQTTClient_create | ( | MQTTClient * | handle, |
const char * | serverURI, | ||
const char * | clientId, | ||
int | persistence_type, | ||
void * | persistence_context | ||
) |
This function creates an MQTT client ready for connection to the specified server and using the specified persistent storage (see MQTTClient_persistence). See also MQTTClient_destroy().
handle | A pointer to an MQTTClient handle. The handle is populated with a valid client reference following a successful return from this function. |
serverURI | A null-terminated string specifying the server to which the client will connect. It takes the form protocol://host:port. Currently, protocol must be tcp or ssl. For host, you can specify either an IP address or a host name. For instance, to connect to a server running on the local machines with the default MQTT port, specify tcp://localhost:1883. |
clientId | The client identifier passed to the server when the client connects to it. It is a null-terminated UTF-8 encoded string. |
persistence_type | The type of persistence to be used by the client: MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_NONE: Use in-memory persistence. If the device or system on which the client is running fails or is switched off, the current state of any in-flight messages is lost and some messages may not be delivered even at QoS1 and QoS2. MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_DEFAULT: Use the default (file system-based) persistence mechanism. Status about in-flight messages is held in persistent storage and provides some protection against message loss in the case of unexpected failure. MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_USER: Use an application-specific persistence implementation. Using this type of persistence gives control of the persistence mechanism to the application. The application has to implement the MQTTClient_persistence interface. |
persistence_context | If the application uses MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_NONE persistence, this argument is unused and should be set to NULL. For MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_DEFAULT persistence, it should be set to the location of the persistence directory (if set to NULL, the persistence directory used is the working directory). Applications that use MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_USER persistence set this argument to point to a valid MQTTClient_persistence structure. |
int MQTTClient_createWithOptions | ( | MQTTClient * | handle, |
const char * | serverURI, | ||
const char * | clientId, | ||
int | persistence_type, | ||
void * | persistence_context, | ||
MQTTClient_createOptions * | options | ||
) |
A version of :MQTTClient_create() with additional options. This function creates an MQTT client ready for connection to the specified server and using the specified persistent storage (see MQTTClient_persistence). See also MQTTClient_destroy().
handle | A pointer to an MQTTClient handle. The handle is populated with a valid client reference following a successful return from this function. |
serverURI | A null-terminated string specifying the server to which the client will connect. It takes the form protocol://host:port. Currently, protocol must be tcp or ssl. For host, you can specify either an IP address or a host name. For instance, to connect to a server running on the local machines with the default MQTT port, specify tcp://localhost:1883. |
clientId | The client identifier passed to the server when the client connects to it. It is a null-terminated UTF-8 encoded string. |
persistence_type | The type of persistence to be used by the client: MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_NONE: Use in-memory persistence. If the device or system on which the client is running fails or is switched off, the current state of any in-flight messages is lost and some messages may not be delivered even at QoS1 and QoS2. MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_DEFAULT: Use the default (file system-based) persistence mechanism. Status about in-flight messages is held in persistent storage and provides some protection against message loss in the case of unexpected failure. MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_USER: Use an application-specific persistence implementation. Using this type of persistence gives control of the persistence mechanism to the application. The application has to implement the MQTTClient_persistence interface. |
persistence_context | If the application uses MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_NONE persistence, this argument is unused and should be set to NULL. For MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_DEFAULT persistence, it should be set to the location of the persistence directory (if set to NULL, the persistence directory used is the working directory). Applications that use MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_USER persistence set this argument to point to a valid MQTTClient_persistence structure. |
options | additional options for the create. |
MQTTClient_nameValue* MQTTClient_getVersionInfo | ( | void | ) |
This function returns version information about the library. no trace information will be returned.
int MQTTClient_connect | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
MQTTClient_connectOptions * | options | ||
) |

MQTTProperties * | willProperties | ||
) |
int MQTTClient_disconnect | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
int | timeout | ||
) |
This function attempts to disconnect the client from the MQTT server. In order to allow the client time to complete handling of messages that are in-flight when this function is called, a timeout period is specified. When the timeout period has expired, the client disconnects even if there are still outstanding message acknowledgements. The next time the client connects to the same server, any QoS 1 or 2 messages which have not completed will be retried depending on the cleansession settings for both the previous and the new connection (see MQTTClient_connectOptions.cleansession and MQTTClient_connect()).
handle | A valid client handle from a successful call to MQTTClient_create(). |
timeout | The client delays disconnection for up to this time (in milliseconds) in order to allow in-flight message transfers to complete. |
int MQTTClient_disconnect5 | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |

const void * | payload, | ||
int | qos, | ||
int | retained, | ||
MQTTClient_deliveryToken * | dt | ||
) |
This function attempts to publish a message to a given topic (see also MQTTClient_publishMessage()). An MQTTClient_deliveryToken is issued when this function returns successfully. If the client application needs to test for succesful delivery of QoS1 and QoS2 messages, this can be done either asynchronously or synchronously (see Asynchronous vs synchronous client applications, MQTTClient_waitForCompletion and MQTTClient_deliveryComplete()).

MQTTClient_deliveryToken * | dt | ||
) |
This function attempts to publish a message to a given topic (see also MQTTClient_publish()). An MQTTClient_deliveryToken is issued when this function returns successfully. If the client application needs to test for succesful delivery of QoS1 and QoS2 messages, this can be done either asynchronously or synchronously (see Asynchronous vs synchronous client applications, MQTTClient_waitForCompletion and MQTTClient_deliveryComplete()).
handle | A valid client handle from a successful call to MQTTClient_create(). |
topicName | The topic associated with this message. |
msg | A pointer to a valid MQTTClient_message structure containing the payload and attributes of the message to be published. |

int MQTTClient_waitForCompletion | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
MQTTClient_deliveryToken | dt, | ||
unsigned long | timeout | ||
) |
This function is called by the client application to synchronize execution of the main thread with completed publication of a message. When called, MQTTClient_waitForCompletion() blocks execution until the message has been successful delivered or the specified timeout has expired. See Asynchronous vs synchronous client applications.
handle | A valid client handle from a successful call to MQTTClient_create(). |
dt | The MQTTClient_deliveryToken that represents the message being tested for successful delivery. Delivery tokens are issued by the publishing functions MQTTClient_publish() and MQTTClient_publishMessage(). |
timeout | The maximum time to wait in milliseconds. |
int MQTTClient_getPendingDeliveryTokens | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
MQTTClient_deliveryToken ** | tokens | ||
) |
This function sets a pointer to an array of delivery tokens for messages that are currently in-flight (pending completion).
Important note: The memory used to hold the array of tokens is malloc()'d in this function. The client application is responsible for freeing this memory when it is no longer required.
handle | A valid client handle from a successful call to MQTTClient_create(). |
tokens | The address of a pointer to an MQTTClient_deliveryToken. When the function returns successfully, the pointer is set to point to an array of tokens representing messages pending completion. The last member of the array is set to -1 to indicate there are no more tokens. If no tokens are pending, the pointer is set to NULL. |
void MQTTClient_yield | ( | void | ) |
When implementing a single-threaded client, call this function periodically to allow processing of message retries and to send MQTT keepalive pings. If the application is calling MQTTClient_receive() regularly, then it is not necessary to call this function.
int MQTTClient_receive | ( | MQTTClient | handle, |
char ** | topicName, | ||
int * | topicLen, | ||
MQTTClient_message ** | message, | ||
unsigned long | timeout | ||
) |
This function performs a synchronous receive of incoming messages. It should be used only when the client application has not set callback methods to support asynchronous receipt of messages (see Asynchronous vs synchronous client applications and MQTTClient_setCallbacks()). Using this function allows a single-threaded client subscriber application to be written. When called, this function blocks until the next message arrives or the specified timeout expires (see also MQTTClient_yield()).
Important note: The application must free() the memory allocated to the topic and the message when processing is complete (see MQTTClient_freeMessage()).
handle | A valid client handle from a successful call to MQTTClient_create(). |
topicName | The address of a pointer to a topic. This function allocates the memory for the topic and returns it to the application by setting topicName to point to the topic. |
topicLen | The length of the topic. If the return code from this function is MQTTCLIENT_TOPICNAME_TRUNCATED, the topic contains embedded NULL characters and the full topic should be retrieved by using topicLen. |
message | The address of a pointer to the received message. This function allocates the memory for the message and returns it to the application by setting message to point to the received message. The pointer is set to NULL if the timeout expires. |
timeout | The length of time to wait for a message in milliseconds. |
void MQTTClient_freeMessage | ( | MQTTClient_message ** | msg | ) |
This function frees memory allocated to an MQTT message, including the additional memory allocated to the message payload. The client application calls this function when the message has been fully processed. Important note: This function does not free the memory allocated to a message topic string. It is the responsibility of the client application to free this memory using the MQTTClient_free() library function.
msg | The address of a pointer to the MQTTClient_message structure to be freed. |
void MQTTClient_free | ( | void * | ptr | ) |
This function frees memory allocated by the MQTT C client library, especially the topic name. This is needed on Windows when the client libary and application program have been compiled with different versions of the C compiler. It is thus good policy to always use this function when freeing any MQTT C client- allocated memory.
ptr | The pointer to the client library storage to be freed. |
void MQTTClient_destroy | ( | MQTTClient * | handle | ) |
This function frees the memory allocated to an MQTT client (see MQTTClient_create()). It should be called when the client is no longer required.
handle | A pointer to the handle referring to the MQTTClient structure to be freed. |
void MQTTClient_setTraceLevel | ( | enum MQTTCLIENT_TRACE_LEVELS | level | ) |
This function sets the level of trace information which will be returned in the trace callback.
level | the trace level required |
void MQTTClient_setTraceCallback | ( | MQTTClient_traceCallback * | callback | ) |
This function sets the trace callback if needed. If set to NULL, no trace information will be returned. The default trace level is MQTTASYNC_TRACE_MINIMUM.
callback | a pointer to the function which will handle the trace information |
const char* MQTTClient_strerror | ( | int | code | ) |
Returns a pointer to the string representation of the error or NULL.
Do not free after use. Returns NULL if the error code is unknown.
