tinymqttbroker adapter for ioBroker

This is very tiny MQTT broker which is not managing any objects/states in iobroker but offers a central MQTT broker instance to publish an subscribe topics as MQTT client. Very helpful to let several devices to talk with one broker and interact on iobroker with a MQTT client javascript.

This adapter uses Sentry libraries to automatically report exceptions and code errors to the developers. For more details and for information how to disable the error reporting see Sentry-Plugin Documentation!

How to use it

A MQTT client could look like

const mqtt = require('mqtt');
const protocol = 'mqtt';
const host = 'localhost';
const portClient = 1884;

const clientId = `iobroker_mqtt_client_` + Math.floor(Math.random() * 100000 + 100000);
const connectUrl = `${protocol}://${host}:${portClient}`;
const client = mqtt.connect(connectUrl, {
    clientId,
    clean: true,
    connectTimeout: 4000,
    reconnectPeriod: 10000
})

const topics = ['topic1', 'topic2', 'topic3];
client.on('connect', () => {
    client.subscribe(topics, () => {
        console.log(`MQTT client says: Connected and subscribe to topics '${topics}'`)
    })
})

client.on('message', (topic: string, payload) => {
    payload = payload.toString();
    // deal as you need with topics and payload here
    // 'switch' could be helpful
    switch (topic) {
        case 'topic1':
            //your code
            break;
        case 'topic2':
            //your code
            break;
})

For publishing message I use one ioBroker state listening for any changes and pushing it to the broker. The state expects a JSON with 'topic' and 'message'.

on({ id: stateMqttIn, change: 'any' }, function (obj) {
    let input: any = obj.state.val;
    let topic: string = input.topic;
    let message: string = String(input.message);
    if (topic && message) client.publish(topic, message);
    else log(`MQTT publish not possible with topic '${topic}' and message '${message}'`,'warn');
});

IMPORTANT! If you create your own MQTT client in an ioBroker javascript, do not forget to close the client in the scipt by using

onStop(function (callback) {
    log('MQTT Client will be closed...');
    client.end(() => {
        if (callback) {
            callback();
            log('MQTT Client closed');
        }
    })
}, 2000 /*ms*/);
