Support for Azure IoT Hub - Quarkus Dev Service

[JoaoBrandao]

As Developer, Would be great to be able to have a Dev Service in Quarkus that allows me to use Azure IoT Hub without requiring any internet connection for my local environment.

As you know, Azure IoT Hub supports two types of connection:

• iot-service-client ( register and send messages/events from cloud to device)
• iot-device-client ( receive and send messages/events from device to Cloud)

I would like to be able to make two operations:

• Register Devices
• Send messages/events to a registered device that was created using the operation above or it was a pre-populated device via application.properties

When sending messages to a pre-populated device it would be great to define a few properties:

quarkus.azure.iothub.device."quarkus-device1".status=enable/disable quarkus.azure.iothub.device."quarkus-device1".message.acknowledgment=true/false quarkus.azure.iothub.device."quarkus-device1".message.acknowledgment.delay=5000 (ms)

First, this would require Azure IoT clients to be supported on Quarkus through dedicated extensions.

Second, Quarkus dev services typically (but not necessarily) use Testcontainers for mocking the backend. Do you know whether there is any Testcontainer available for Azure IoT Hub? Azurite does not seem to support it.

@agoncal does Microsoft have any strategy for delivering Testcontainers for the individual Azure services?
