Weapons grade MQTT packet codec.
Project description
A weapons grade MQTT packet encoder and decoder (codec).
Status
The mqtt-codec package is an MQTT 3.1.1 packet encoder and decoder (codec). The library has high test coverage (~94%) and is known to perform well in distributed IoT networks with thousands of nodes.
Installation
The mqtt-codec package can be from pypi.org with pip:
pip install mqtt-codec
Usage
An encode/decode cycle looks like this:
>>> from io import BytesIO
>>> from binascii import b2a_hex
>>> import mqtt_codec.packet
>>> import mqtt_codec.io
>>>
>>> # Encode a Connect packet
>>> will = mqtt_codec.packet.MqttWill(qos=0, topic='hello', message='message', retain=True)
>>> connect = mqtt_codec.packet.MqttConnect(client_id='client_id', clean_session=False, keep_alive=0, will=will)
>>> with BytesIO() as f:
... num_bytes_written = connect.encode(f)
... buf = f.getvalue()
...
>>> assert len(buf) == num_bytes_written
>>> print('0x{} ({} bytes)'.format(b2a_hex(buf), len(buf)))
0x102500044d515454042400000009636c69656e745f6964000568656c6c6f00076d657373616765 (39 bytes)
>>>
>>> # Decode the connect packet and assert equality.
>>> with mqtt_codec.io.BytesReader(buf) as f:
... num_bytes_read, decoded_connect = connect.decode(f)
...
>>> assert len(buf) == num_bytes_written
>>> assert connect == decoded_connect
>>> print(' Encoded {}'.format(connect))
Encoded MqttConnect(client_id='client_id', clean_session=False, keep_alive=0, username=***, password=***, will=MqttWill(topic=hello, payload=0x6d657373616765, retain=True, qos=0))
>>> print('= Decoded {}'.format(decoded_connect))
= Decoded MqttConnect(client_id=u'client_id', clean_session=False, keep_alive=0, username=***, password=***, will=MqttWill(topic=hello, payload=0x6d657373616765, retain=True, qos=0))
Python Requirements
The mqtt-codec project has been tested on Linux against these environments:
Python 2.7
Python 3.4
Python 3.5
Python 3.6
Python 3.7
Python versions Python 3.0 - 3.3 may work but are not tested as part of the project continuous integration infrastructure.
Library Requirements
When running Python versions less than 3.4 the enum34 package is required. There are no other package requirements.
Project Infrastructure
The project is coordinated through public infrastructure available at several places:
