I'm looking a MQTT [0] client library written in D, if it exists.
Anyone know of any?

I found the great Atila Neves MQTT broker (server) [1], and some C/C++ libraries [2], so, possible solutions are:

a. Write a native D library from scratch
b. Adapt/copy some parts of [1] to convert from server to client
c. Create a binding from [2]

Anyone has other idea that I could use to create this
myself?

Thanks

If it isn't on http://code.dlang.org it is unlikely to exist in easy to use form.
Starting with C bindings is probably the easiest approach - you may want to check out https://github.com/jacob-carlborg/dstep if you haven't already.

Those are basically your options. You could wrap Mosquitto (a C implementation), but I'd just use the existing MQTT broker code. Then again, I would say that. :)

My preferred option is b. that is convert your MQTT broker to MQTT client.

I'm not a MQTT expert, so, in your opinion what parts of your code should I change?
(i.e. message module should be the same, peraphs module stream...)

Thanks for your support

(and also for your unit-threaded project!)

I am writing a D wrapper for the Eclipse Paho C library. I know MQTT, but don't know D very well - this was an attempt for me to learn D a little better for a non-trivial example. It's a little tricky since the underlying library is multi-threaded and making callbacks from different threads.

I have the basics all working on Linux, but need to nail down a few issues of message (data) immutability. And I need to start testing on Windows.

Oh, and I haven't the slightest idea how to package a D library for distribution. Where do I learn how to do that?

I recommend using Dub [1][2]. Here is the description of the package format [3].

I got the OK to submit the D library to Eclipse Paho. So, hopefully within the next few weeks there will be a Paho incubator project for the D language client.

Hi Frank,
any news about your MQTT client project?

Thank you

I needed it too so - http://forum.dlang.org/thread/isznbdlzfyvprkenakng@forum.dlang.org

Hope it helps and gets better with shared efforts
