mqtt-smarthome-connect

node-mqtt-smarthome

Node module for MQTT-Smarthome

This Module is a wrapper around MQTT.js adding extra functionality to ease the handling of topics and payloads following the mqtt-smarthome architecture proposal.

Usage

$ npm install mqtt-smarthome-connect --save

const mqsh = require('mqtt-smarthome-connect');
mqsh.connect();
mqsh.subscribe('test/1', (topic, val) => {
    console.log(val); // foo
});
mqsh.publish('test/1', 'foo');

new MqttSmarthome([mqttUrl], [options])

Params

• [mqttUrl] string = "mqtt://localhost"
• [options] object - see all available options in the MQTT.js docs
  • [.logger] object
  • [.globalOptions] object - that'll overwrite options given in publish(topic, payload, options, callback)
  • [.clientId] string = "mqttsmarthome-<random>"

mqttSmarthome.sub : MqttSmarthome.subscribe

Just a convenience alias to subscribe

Kind: instance property of MqttSmarthome

mqttSmarthome.pub : MqttSmarthome.publish

Just a convenience alias to publish

Kind: instance property of MqttSmarthome

mqttSmarthome.connect()

Kind: instance method of MqttSmarthome

mqttSmarthome.end([force], [callback])

Disconnect from the MQTT broker.

Kind: instance method of MqttSmarthome
Params

• [force] boolean = false - passing it to true will close the client right away, without waiting for the in-flight messages to be acked.
• [callback] function - will be called when the client is closed.

mqttSmarthome.reconnect()

Reconnect to the MQTT broker.

Kind: instance method of MqttSmarthome

mqttSmarthome.subscribe(topic, [callback]) ⇒ idSubscription

Kind: instance method of MqttSmarthome
Returns: idSubscription - id
Params

• topic string
• [callback] messageCallback =

mqttSmarthome.unregisterCallback(id) ⇒ number

Unregister a callback. If no registered callback on the corresponding topic is left a MQTT unsubscribe will be done.

Kind: instance method of MqttSmarthome
Returns: number - remaining number of subscription on that topic
Params

• id idSubscription - an id that was returned by the subscribe() method.

mqttSmarthome.unsubscribe(topic, [callback])

Unsubscribe a whole topic with all its callbacks.

Kind: instance method of MqttSmarthome
Params

• topic string
• [callback] function

mqttSmarthome.publish(topic, payload, [options], [callback])

Publish a MQTT message. Payloads that are neither of type string nor an instance of Buffer will be JSON stringified.

Kind: instance method of MqttSmarthome
Params

• topic string
• payload *
• [options] object
  • [.qos] number = 0 - QoS level
  • [.retain] boolean = false - Retain Flag
  • [.dup] boolean = false - Mark as duplicate flag
• [callback] function - Fired when the QoS handling completes, or at the next tick if QoS 0. An error occurs if client is disconnecting.
