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

Version 13.2.1

mqtt_cpp has been serious bugfix only status. The new project async_mqtt has been started based on mqtt_cpp's experience. New featureas would be added on async_mqtt.

MQTT v5 is supported since version 4.0.0.

Overview

mqtt_cpp is a header only library. It requires C++14 and the Boost Libraries 1.74.0 or later.

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

For clients:

#include <mqtt_client_cpp.hpp>
#include <mqtt/setup_log.hpp> // if you want to use typical logging setup

For servers:

#include <mqtt_server_cpp.hpp>
#include <mqtt/setup_log.hpp> // if you want to use typical logging setup

You can compile your code as follows:

g++ -std=c++14 -Ipath_to_mqtt_cpp/include your_program.cpp -pthread additional_options

mqtt_cpp uses std::variant or boost::variant internally. If you define the preprocessor macro MQTT_STD_VARIANT then std::variant is chosen, otherwise boost::variant is chosen.

If you use boost::variant, you need to include mqtt/config.hpp prior to the boost headers inclusion becausse it defines boost configuration macros. When you use mqtt_client_cpp.hpp and/or mqtt_server_cpp.hpp, they include mqtt/config.hpp internally.

Experimental feature

In include/mqtt/broker, there are header files to implement mqtt broker. It is an experimental feature. It would frequently updated. Even if the broker interface would be changed, major version won't be updated.

  • 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

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

Usage in cmake project

Add following lines to your CMakeLists.txt

set(LIBNAME "your_project_name")
add_library(${LIBNAME} <your dependencies here>)

find_package(mqtt_cpp_iface REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(${LIBNAME} LINK_PUBLIC mqtt_cpp_iface::mqtt_cpp_iface)

This uses the mqtt_cpp_iface::mqtt_cpp_iface target and includes all necessary link dependencies.

Test

You can build tests and examples as follows:

At mqtt_cpp directory

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make test
