mqtt on raspberry pi [message #1760472] Thu, 27 April 2017 10:58 Go to next message

Hi everyone, I'm new to 4diac and I want to use mqtt protocol on raspberry pi.
I follow the steps on the website but get confused with some points.

First, after I git-cloned the org.eclipse.paho.mqtt.c, it is said that I have to open the <paho src code>. However, under the src directory, there are no Makefile. The Makefile only exists in the paho.mqtt.c directory. Does this mean that I have to execute "make" in the paho.mqtt.c directory?

Second, it is said that I have to set FORTE_COM_PHAOMQTT folder in CMake. However, I am not sure which directory I should select. Currently, I select the path of paho.mqtt.c directory (i.e. /.../.../.../paho.mqtt.c), but when compiling, there are something wrong. It shows that libpaho-mqtt3a.so file is not recognized.

index.php/fa/29163/0/
index.php/fa/29164/0/

Any help appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,

I guess you will need to cross compile mqtt for Rasbpi. So the steps will be,

1) Cross compile mqtt for Rasbpi, which will generate Rasbpi specific libpaho-mqtt3a.so and other required libraries in build/output directory (For cross compiling, you can use the same procedure as you compile forte using cmake and Rsbpi tool chain)

2) Define FORTE_COM_PAHOMQTT_DIR, the directory where you built Rasbpi specific mqtt

3) Cross compile forte as mentioned in the official documentation

Hope this helps

Hi all,

Milan is right, you first have to compile MQTT on the Raspberry Pi, as forte is only using MQTT as a third-party library. If you follow the manual on how to compile MQTT, the libraries will be placed into a standard folder inside the MQTT source tree, which CMake will then use to link against the MQTT library.

Regards,
Martin

Thank you two very much for your detailed explanation. I successfully compiled the MQTT on the raspberry pi and built forte with MQTT library.

Hi,
glad you already solved the issue, with the support of the others.
I did a little writeup for all the needed steps for getting MQTT up and running on the Pi with FORTE.
Maybe someone else will stumble across this thread and finds it useful.
kind regards
Herwig
