Description: Eclipse Paho™ MQTT Python Client
|
||
|
================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
This document describes the source code for the `Eclipse Paho <http://eclipse.org/paho/>`_ MQTT Python client library, which implements versions 5.0, 3.1.1, and 3.1 of the MQTT protocol.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This code provides a client class which enable applications to connect to an `MQTT <http://mqtt.org/>`_ broker to publish messages, and to subscribe to topics and receive published messages. It also provides some helper functions to make publishing one off messages to an MQTT server very straightforward.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It supports Python 2.7.9+ or 3.5+.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The MQTT protocol is a machine-to-machine (M2M)/"Internet of Things" connectivity protocol. Designed as an extremely lightweight publish/subscribe messaging transport, it is useful for connections with remote locations where a small code footprint is required and/or network bandwidth is at a premium.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Paho is an `Eclipse Foundation <https://www.eclipse.org/org/foundation/>`_ project.

Installation
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The latest stable version is available in the Python Package Index (PyPi) and can be installed using
|
||
|
|
||
|
::
|
||
|
|
||
|
pip install paho-mqtt
|
||
|
|
||
|
Or with ``virtualenv``:
|
||
|
|
||
|
::
|
||
|
|
||
|
virtualenv paho-mqtt
|
||
|
source paho-mqtt/bin/activate
|
||
|
pip install paho-mqtt
|
||
|
|
||
|
To obtain the full code, including examples and tests, you can clone the git repository:
|
||
|
|
||
|
::
|
||
|
|
||
|
git clone https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.python
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Once you have the code, it can be installed from your repository as well:
|
||
|
|
||
|
::
|
||
|
|
||
|
cd paho.mqtt.python
|
||
|
python setup.py install
|
||
|
|
||
|
To perform all test (including MQTT v5 test), you also need to clone paho.mqtt.testing in paho.mqtt.python folder::
|
||
|
|
||
|
git clone https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.testing.git
|
||
|
|
||
|
Known limitations
|
||
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following are the known unimplemented MQTT feature.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When clean_session is False, the session is only stored in memory not persisted. This means that
|
||
|
when client is restarted (not just reconnected, the object is recreated usually because the
|
||
|
program was restarted) the session is lost. This result in possible message lost.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following part of client session is lost:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* QoS 2 messages which have been received from the Server, but have not been completely acknowledged.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since the client will blindly acknowledge any PUBCOMP (last message of a QoS 2 transaction), it
|
||
|
won't hang but will lost this QoS 2 message.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* QoS 1 and QoS 2 messages which have been sent to the Server, but have not been completely acknowledged.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This means that message passed to publish() may be lost. This could be mitigated by taking care
|
||
|
that all message passed to publish() has a corresponding on_publish() call.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It also means that the broker may have the Qos2 message in the session. Since the client start
|
||
|
with an empty session it don't know it and will re-use the mid. This is not yet fixed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Also when clean_session is True, this library will republish QoS > 0 message accross network
|
||
|
reconnection. This means that QoS > 0 message won't be lost. But the standard say that
|
||
|
if we should discard any message for which the publish packet was sent. Our choice means that
|
||
|
we are not compliant with the standard and it's possible for QoS 2 to be received twice.
|
||
|
You should you clean_session = False if you need the QoS 2 guarantee of only one delivery.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usage and API
|
||
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Detailed API documentation is available through **pydoc**. Samples are available in the **examples** directory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The package provides two modules, a full client and a helper for simple publishing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Getting Started
|
||
|
***************
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here is a very simple example that subscribes to the broker $SYS topic tree and prints out the resulting messages:
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
import paho.mqtt.client as mqtt
|
||
|
|
||
|
# The callback for when the client receives a CONNACK response from the server.
|
||
|
def on_connect(client, userdata, flags, rc):
|
||
|
print("Connected with result code "+str(rc))
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Subscribing in on_connect() means that if we lose the connection and
|
||
|
# reconnect then subscriptions will be renewed.
|
||
|
client.subscribe("$SYS/#")
|
||
|
|
||
|
# The callback for when a PUBLISH message is received from the server.
|
||
|
def on_message(client, userdata, msg):
|
||
|
print(msg.topic+" "+str(msg.payload))
|
||
|
|
||
|
client = mqtt.Client()
|
||
|
client.on_connect = on_connect
|
||
|
client.on_message = on_message
|
||
|
|
||
|
client.connect("mqtt.eclipse.org", 1883, 60)
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Blocking call that processes network traffic, dispatches callbacks and
|
||
|
# handles reconnecting.
|
||
|
# Other loop*() functions are available that give a threaded interface and a
|
||
|
# manual interface.
|
||
|
client.loop_forever()
|
||
|
|
||
|
Client
|
||
|
******
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can use the client class as an instance, within a class or by subclassing. The general usage flow is as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Create a client instance
|
||
|
* Connect to a broker using one of the ``connect*()`` functions
|
||
|
* Call one of the ``loop*()`` functions to maintain network traffic flow with the broker
|
||
|
* Use ``subscribe()`` to subscribe to a topic and receive messages
|
||
|
* Use ``publish()`` to publish messages to the broker
|
||
|
* Use ``disconnect()`` to disconnect from the broker
|
||
|
|
||
|
Callbacks will be called to allow the application to process events as necessary. These callbacks are described below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Constructor / reinitialise
|
||
|
``````````````````````````
|
||
|
|
||
|
Client()
|
||
|
''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
Client(client_id="", clean_session=True, userdata=None, protocol=MQTTv311, transport="tcp")
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``Client()`` constructor takes the following arguments:
|
||
|
|
||
|
client_id
|
||
|
the unique client id string used when connecting to the broker. If
|
||
|
``client_id`` is zero length or ``None``, then one will be randomly
|
||
|
generated. In this case the ``clean_session`` parameter must be ``True``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
clean_session
|
||
|
a boolean that determines the client type. If ``True``, the broker will
|
||
|
remove all information about this client when it disconnects. If ``False``,
|
||
|
the client is a durable client and subscription information and queued
|
||
|
messages will be retained when the client disconnects.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that a client will never discard its own outgoing messages on
|
||
|
disconnect. Calling connect() or reconnect() will cause the messages to be
|
||
|
resent. Use reinitialise() to reset a client to its original state.
|
||
|
|
||
|
userdata
|
||
|
user defined data of any type that is passed as the ``userdata`` parameter
|
||
|
to callbacks. It may be updated at a later point with the
|
||
|
``user_data_set()`` function.
|
||
|
|
||
|
protocol
|
||
|
the version of the MQTT protocol to use for this client. Can be either
|
||
|
``MQTTv31`` or ``MQTTv311``
|
||
|
|
||
|
transport
|
||
|
set to "websockets" to send MQTT over WebSockets. Leave at the default of
|
||
|
"tcp" to use raw TCP.
|
||
|
|
||

|
||
|
Constructor Example
|
||
|
...................
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
import paho.mqtt.client as mqtt
|
||
|
|
||
|
mqttc = mqtt.Client()
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
reinitialise()
|
||
|
''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
reinitialise(client_id="", clean_session=True, userdata=None)
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``reinitialise()`` function resets the client to its starting state as if it had just been created. It takes the same arguments as the ``Client()`` constructor.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Reinitialise Example
|
||
|
....................
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
mqttc.reinitialise()
|
||
|
|
||
|
Option functions
|
||
|
````````````````
|
||
|
|
||
|
These functions represent options that can be set on the client to modify its behaviour. In the majority of cases this must be done *before* connecting to a broker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
max_inflight_messages_set()
|
||
|
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
max_inflight_messages_set(self, inflight)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Set the maximum number of messages with QoS>0 that can be part way through their network flow at once.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Defaults to 20. Increasing this value will consume more memory but can increase throughput.
|
||
|
|
||
|
max_queued_messages_set()
|
||
|
'''''''''''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
max_queued_messages_set(self, queue_size)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Set the maximum number of outgoing messages with QoS>0 that can be pending in the outgoing message queue.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Defaults to 0. 0 means unlimited. When the queue is full, any further outgoing messages would be dropped.
|
||
|
|
||
|
message_retry_set()
|
||
|
'''''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
message_retry_set(retry)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Set the time in seconds before a message with QoS>0 is retried, if the broker does not respond.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is set to 5 seconds by default and should not normally need changing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ws_set_options()
|
||
|
''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
ws_set_options(self, path="/mqtt", headers=None)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Set websocket connection options. These options will only be used if ``transport="websockets"`` was passed into the ``Client()`` constructor.
|
||
|
|
||
|
path
|
||
|
The mqtt path to use on the broker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
headers
|
||
|
Either a dictionary specifying a list of extra headers which should be appended to the standard websocket headers, or a callable that takes the normal websocket headers and returns a new dictionary with a set of headers to connect to the broker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Must be called before ``connect*()``. An example of how this can be used with the AWS IoT platform is in the **examples** folder.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
tls_set()
|
||
|
'''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
tls_set(ca_certs=None, certfile=None, keyfile=None, cert_reqs=ssl.CERT_REQUIRED,
|
||
|
tls_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLS, ciphers=None)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Configure network encryption and authentication options. Enables SSL/TLS support.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ca_certs
|
||
|
a string path to the Certificate Authority certificate files that are to be treated as trusted by this client. If this is the only option given then the client will operate in a similar manner to a web browser. That is to say it will require the broker to have a certificate signed by the Certificate Authorities in ``ca_certs`` and will communicate using TLS v1, but will not attempt any form of authentication. This provides basic network encryption but may not be sufficient depending on how the broker is configured. By default, on Python 2.7.9+ or 3.4+, the default certification authority of the system is used. On older Python version this parameter is mandatory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
certfile, keyfile
|
||
|
strings pointing to the PEM encoded client certificate and private keys respectively. If these arguments are not ``None`` then they will be used as client information for TLS based authentication. Support for this feature is broker dependent. Note that if either of these files in encrypted and needs a password to decrypt it, Python will ask for the password at the command line. It is not currently possible to define a callback to provide the password.
|
||
|
|
||
|
cert_reqs
|
||
|
defines the certificate requirements that the client imposes on the broker. By default this is ``ssl.CERT_REQUIRED``, which means that the broker must provide a certificate. See the ssl pydoc for more information on this parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
tls_version
|
||
|
specifies the version of the SSL/TLS protocol to be used. By default (if the python version supports it) the highest TLS version is detected. If unavailable, TLS v1 is used. Previous versions (all versions beginning with SSL) are possible but not recommended due to possible security problems.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ciphers
|
||
|
a string specifying which encryption ciphers are allowable for this connection, or ``None`` to use the defaults. See the ssl pydoc for more information.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Must be called before ``connect*()``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
tls_set_context()
|
||
|
'''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
tls_set_context(context=None)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Configure network encryption and authentication context. Enables SSL/TLS support.
|
||
|
|
||
|
context
|
||
|
an ssl.SSLContext object. By default, this is given by ``ssl.create_default_context()``, if available (added in Python 3.4).
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you're unsure about using this method, then either use the default context, or use the ``tls_set`` method. See the ssl module documentation section about `security considerations <https://docs.python.org/3/library/ssl.html#ssl-security>`_ for more information.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Must be called before ``connect*()``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
tls_insecure_set()
|
||
|
''''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
tls_insecure_set(value)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Configure verification of the server hostname in the server certificate.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If ``value`` is set to ``True``, it is impossible to guarantee that the host you are connecting to is not impersonating your server. This can be useful in initial server testing, but makes it possible for a malicious third party to impersonate your server through DNS spoofing, for example.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Do not use this function in a real system. Setting value to True means there is no point using encryption.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Must be called before ``connect*()`` and after ``tls_set()`` or ``tls_set_context()``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
enable_logger()
|
||
|
'''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
enable_logger(logger=None)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Enable logging using the standard python logging package (See PEP 282). This may be used at the same time as the ``on_log`` callback method.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If ``logger`` is specified, then that ``logging.Logger`` object will be used, otherwise one will be created automatically.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Paho logging levels are converted to standard ones according to the following mapping:

|
reconnect_delay_set(min_delay=1, max_delay=120)
|

The client will automatically retry connection. Between each attempt
|

it will wait a number of seconds between ``min_delay`` and ``max_delay``.
|

connect(host, port=1883, keepalive=60, bind_address="")
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``connect()`` function connects the client to a broker. This is a blocking
|
||
|
function. It takes the following arguments:
|
||
|
|
||
|
host
|
||
|
the hostname or IP address of the remote broker
|
||
|
|
||
|
port
|
||
|
the network port of the server host to connect to. Defaults to 1883. Note
|
||
|
that the default port for MQTT over SSL/TLS is 8883 so if you are using
|
||
|
``tls_set()`` or ``tls_set_context()``, the port may need providing manually
|
||
|
|
||
|
keepalive
|
||
|
maximum period in seconds allowed between communications with the broker.
|
||
|
If no other messages are being exchanged, this controls the rate at which
|
||
|
the client will send ping messages to the broker
|
||
|
|
||
|
bind_address
|
||
|
the IP address of a local network interface to bind this client to,
|
||
|
assuming multiple interfaces exist
|
||
|
|
||
|
Callback
|
||
|
........
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the client receives a CONNACK message from the broker in response to the
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|

|
disconnect()
|
||
|
|
||
|
Disconnect from the broker cleanly. Using ``disconnect()`` will not result in a
|
||
|
will message being sent by the broker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Disconnect will not wait for all queued message to be sent, to ensure all messages
|
||
|
are delivered, ``wait_for_publish()`` from ``MQTTMessageInfo`` should be used.
|
||
|
See ``publish()`` for details.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Callback (disconnect)
|
||
|
.....................
|
||
|

|
Network loop
|
||
|
````````````
|
||
|
|
||
|
These functions are the driving force behind the client. If they are not
|
||
|
called, incoming network data will not be processed and outgoing network data
|
||
|
may not be sent in a timely fashion. There are four options for managing the
|
||
|
network loop. Three are described here, the fourth in "External event loop
|
||
|
support" below. Do not mix the different loop functions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
loop()
|
||
|
''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
loop(timeout=1.0, max_packets=1)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Call regularly to process network events. This call waits in ``select()`` until
|
||
|
the network socket is available for reading or writing, if appropriate, then
|
||
|
handles the incoming/outgoing data. This function blocks for up to ``timeout``
|
||
|
seconds. ``timeout`` must not exceed the ``keepalive`` value for the client or
|
||
|
your client will be regularly disconnected by the broker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``max_packets`` argument is obsolete and should be left unset.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Loop Example
|
||
|
............
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
run = True
|
||
|
while run:
|
||
|
mqttc.loop()

|
|

|
loop_start() / loop_stop()

||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
loop_start()
|
||
|
loop_stop(force=False)
|
||
|
|
||
|
These functions implement a threaded interface to the network loop. Calling
|
||
|
``loop_start()`` once, before or after ``connect*()``, runs a thread in the
|
||
|
background to call ``loop()`` automatically. This frees up the main thread for
|
||
|
other work that may be blocking. This call also handles reconnecting to the
|
||
|
broker. Call ``loop_stop()`` to stop the background thread. The ``force``
|
||
|
argument is currently ignored.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Loop Start/Stop Example
|
||
|
.......................
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
mqttc.connect("mqtt.eclipse.org")
|
||
|
mqttc.loop_start()
|
||
|
|
||
|
while True:
|
||
|
temperature = sensor.blocking_read()
|
||
|
mqttc.publish("paho/temperature", temperature)
|
||
|
|
||
|
loop_forever()
|
||
|
''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
loop_forever(timeout=1.0, max_packets=1, retry_first_connection=False)
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is a blocking form of the network loop and will not return until the
|
||
|
client calls ``disconnect()``. It automatically handles reconnecting.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Except for the first connection attempt when using connect_async, use
|
||
|
``retry_first_connection=True`` to make it retry the first connection.
|
||
|
Warning: This might lead to situations where the client keeps connecting to an
|
||
|
non existing host without failing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``timeout`` and ``max_packets`` arguments are obsolete and should be left
|
||
|
unset.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Publishing
|
||
|
``````````
|
||
|
|
||
|
Send a message from the client to the broker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
publish()
|
||
|
'''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
publish(topic, payload=None, qos=0, retain=False)
|
||
|
|
||
|
This causes a message to be sent to the broker and subsequently from the broker
|
||
|
to any clients subscribing to matching topics. It takes the following
|
||
|
arguments:
|
||
|
|
||
|
topic
|
||
|
the topic that the message should be published on
|
||
|
|
||
|
payload
|
||
|
the actual message to send. If not given, or set to ``None`` a zero length
|
||
|
message will be used. Passing an int or float will result in the payload
|
||
|
being converted to a string representing that number. If you wish to send a
|
||
|
true int/float, use ``struct.pack()`` to create the payload you require
|
||
|
|
||
|
qos
|
||
|
the quality of service level to use
|
||
|
|
||
|
retain
|
||
|
if set to ``True``, the message will be set as the "last known
|
||
|
good"/retained message for the topic.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Returns a MQTTMessageInfo which expose the following attributes and methods:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* ``rc``, the result of the publishing. It could be ``MQTT_ERR_SUCCESS`` to
|
||
|
indicate success, ``MQTT_ERR_NO_CONN`` if the client is not currently connected,
|
||
|
or ``MQTT_ERR_QUEUE_SIZE`` when ``max_queued_messages_set`` is used to indicate
|
||
|
that message is neither queued nor sent.
|
||
|
* ``mid`` is the message ID for the publish request. The mid value can be used to
|
||
|
track the publish request by checking against the mid argument in the
|
||
|
``on_publish()`` callback if it is defined. ``wait_for_publish`` may be easier
|
||
|
depending on your use-case.
|
||
|
* ``wait_for_publish()`` will block until the message is published. It will
|
||
|
raise ValueError if the message is not queued (rc == ``MQTT_ERR_QUEUE_SIZE``).
|
||
|
* ``is_published`` returns True if the message has been published. It will
|
||
|
raise ValueError if the message is not queued (rc == ``MQTT_ERR_QUEUE_SIZE``).
|
||
|
|
||
|
A ``ValueError`` will be raised if topic is ``None``, has zero length or is
|
||
|
invalid (contains a wildcard), if ``qos`` is not one of 0, 1 or 2, or if the
|
||
|
length of the payload is greater than 268435455 bytes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Callback (publish)
|
||
|
..................
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the message has been sent to the broker an ``on_publish()`` callback will
|
||
|
be generated.

'''''''''''
|

|
|

subscribe(topic, qos=0)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Subscribe the client to one or more topics.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This function may be called in three different ways:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Simple string and integer
|
||
|
.........................
|
||
|
|
||
|
e.g. ``subscribe("my/topic", 2)``
|
||
|
|
||
|
topic
|
||
|
a string specifying the subscription topic to subscribe to.
|
||
|
|
||
|
qos
|
||
|
the desired quality of service level for the subscription. Defaults to 0.
|
||
|
|
||
|
String and integer tuple
|
||
|
........................
|
||
|
|
||
|
e.g. ``subscribe(("my/topic", 1))``
|
||
|
|
||
|
topic
|
||
|
a tuple of ``(topic, qos)``. Both topic and qos must be present in the tuple.
|
||
|
|
||
|
qos
|
||
|
not used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
List of string and integer tuples
|
||
|
.................................
|
||
|
|
||
|
e.g. ``subscribe([("my/topic", 0), ("another/topic", 2)])``
|
||
|
|
||
|
This allows multiple topic subscriptions in a single SUBSCRIPTION command,
|
||
|
which is more efficient than using multiple calls to ``subscribe()``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
topic
|
||
|
a list of tuple of format ``(topic, qos)``. Both topic and qos must be
|
||
|
present in all of the tuples.
|
||
|
|
||
|
qos
|
||
|
not used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The function returns a tuple ``(result, mid)``, where ``result`` is
|
||
|
``MQTT_ERR_SUCCESS`` to indicate success or ``(MQTT_ERR_NO_CONN, None)`` if the
|
||
|
client is not currently connected. ``mid`` is the message ID for the subscribe
|
||
|
request. The mid value can be used to track the subscribe request by checking
|
||
|
against the mid argument in the ``on_subscribe()`` callback if it is defined.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Raises a ``ValueError`` if ``qos`` is not 0, 1 or 2, or if topic is ``None`` or
|
||
|
has zero string length, or if ``topic`` is not a string, tuple or list.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Callback (subscribe)

||
|
....................
|
||

Unsubscribe the client from one or more topics.
|
||
|
|

|
topic
|
||
|
a single string, or list of strings that are the subscription topics to
|
||
|
unsubscribe from.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Returns a tuple ``(result, mid)``, where ``result`` is ``MQTT_ERR_SUCCESS`` to
|
||
|
indicate success, or ``(MQTT_ERR_NO_CONN, None)`` if the client is not
|
||
|
currently connected. ``mid`` is the message ID for the unsubscribe request. The
|
||
|
mid value can be used to track the unsubscribe request by checking against the
|
||
|
mid argument in the ``on_unsubscribe()`` callback if it is defined.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Raises a ``ValueError`` if ``topic`` is ``None`` or has zero string length, or
|

|
||
|
flags is a dict that contains response flags from the broker:
|

|
flags['session present'] - this flag is useful for clients that are
|
||
|
using clean session set to 0 only. If a client with clean
|
||
|
session=0, that reconnects to a broker that it has previously
|
||
|
connected to, this flag indicates whether the broker still has the
|
||
|
session information for the client. If 1, the session still exists.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The value of rc indicates success or not:
|
||
|
|
||
|
0: Connection successful
|
||
|
1: Connection refused - incorrect protocol version
|
||
|
2: Connection refused - invalid client identifier

callback
|
||
|
the callback to be used. Takes the same form as the ``on_message``
|
||
|
callback.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If using ``message_callback_add()`` and ``on_message``, only messages that do
|
||
|
not match a subscription specific filter will be passed to the ``on_message``
|
||
|
callback.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If multiple sub match a topic, each callback will be called (e.g. sub ``sensors/#``
|
||
|
and sub ``+/humidity`` both match a message with a topic ``sensors/humidity``, so both
|
||
|
callbacks will handle this message).
|
||
|
|
||
|
message_callback_remove()
|
||
|
'''''''''''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||
|
Remove a topic/subscription specific callback previously registered using

||
|
``message_callback_add()``.

.. code:: python

on_publish(client, userdata, mid)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Called when a message that was to be sent using the ``publish()`` call has
|
||
|
completed transmission to the broker. For messages with QoS levels 1 and 2,
|
||
|
this means that the appropriate handshakes have completed. For QoS 0, this
|
||
|
simply means that the message has left the client. The ``mid`` variable matches
|
||
|
the mid variable returned from the corresponding ``publish()`` call, to allow
|
||
|
outgoing messages to be tracked.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This callback is important because even if the publish() call returns success,
|
||
|
it does not always mean that the message has been sent.

|
||
|
``MQTT_LOG_INFO``, ``MQTT_LOG_NOTICE``, ``MQTT_LOG_WARNING``, ``MQTT_LOG_ERR``,
|

on_socket_register_write
|
||
|
on_socket_unregister_write
|
||
|
|
||
|
Use these callbacks to get notified about state changes in the socket.
|
||
|
This is particularly useful for event loops where you register or unregister a socket
|
||
|
for reading+writing. See ``examples/loop_asyncio.py`` for an example.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the socket is opened, ``on_socket_open`` is called.
|
||
|
Register the socket with your event loop for reading.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the socket is about to be closed, ``on_socket_close`` is called.
|
||
|
Unregister the socket from your event loop for reading.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When a write to the socket failed because it would have blocked, e.g. output buffer full,
|
||
|
``on_socket_register_write`` is called.
|
||
|
Register the socket with your event loop for writing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the next write to the socket succeeded, ``on_socket_unregister_write`` is called.
|
||
|
Unregister the socket from your event loop for writing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The callbacks are always called in this order:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- ``on_socket_open``
|
||
|
- Zero or more times:
|
||
|
|
||

Global helper functions
|

|
```````````````````````
|
||
|
|
||
|
The client module also offers some global helper functions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``topic_matches_sub(sub, topic)`` can be used to check whether a ``topic``
|
||
|
matches a ``subscription``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
the topic ``foo/bar`` would match the subscription ``foo/#`` or ``+/bar``
|
||
|
|
||
|
the topic ``non/matching`` would not match the subscription ``non/+/+``
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
``connack_string(connack_code)`` returns the error string associated with a
|
||
|
CONNACK result.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
``error_string(mqtt_errno)`` returns the error string associated with a Paho
|
||
|
MQTT error number.

|
|
||
|
Publish
|
||
|
*******
|
||
|
|
||
|
This module provides some helper functions to allow straightforward publishing
|
||
|
of messages in a one-shot manner. In other words, they are useful for the
|
||
|
situation where you have a single/multiple messages you want to publish to a
|
||
|
broker, then disconnect with nothing else required.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The two functions provided are ``single()`` and ``multiple()``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Single
|
||
|
``````
|
||
|
|
||
|
Publish a single message to a broker, then disconnect cleanly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. code:: python
|
||
|
|
||
|
single(topic, payload=None, qos=0, retain=False, hostname="localhost",

|
Publish Single Function arguments
|
||
|
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
|
||
|
|
||

the only required argument must be the topic string to which the payload
|
||
|
will be published.
|
||
|
|
||
|
payload
|
||
|
the payload to be published. If "" or None, a zero length payload will be
|
||
|
published.
|
||
|
|
||
|
qos
|
||
|
the qos to use when publishing, default to 0.
|
||
|
|
||
|
retain
|
||
|
set the message to be retained (True) or not (False).
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
localhost.
|
||
|
|
||
|
port
|
||
|
the port to connect to the broker on. Defaults to 1883.
|
||
|
|
||
|
client_id
|
||
|

||
|
the keepalive timeout value for the client. Defaults to 60 seconds.
|
||
|
|
||
|
will
|
||
|
a dict containing will parameters for the client:
|
||
|
|
||
|
will = {'topic': "<topic>", 'payload':"<payload">, 'qos':<qos>, 'retain':<retain>}.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Topic is required, all other parameters are optional and will default to
|
||
|
None, 0 and False respectively.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Defaults to None, which indicates no will should be used.

||
|
|
||
|
auth
|
||
|
a dict containing authentication parameters for the client:
|
||
|
|
||
|

||
|
Username is required, password is optional and will default to None if not provided.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Defaults to None, which indicates no authentication is to be used.
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
ca_certs is required, all other parameters are optional and will default to None if not provided, which results in the client using the default behaviour - see the paho.mqtt.client documentation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Defaults to None, which indicates that TLS should not be used.
|
||
|
|
||
|

||
|
|
||
|
msg = {'topic':"<topic>", 'payload':"<payload>", 'qos':<qos>, 'retain':<retain>}
|
||
|
|
||
|
topic must be present and may not be empty.
