MQTT Request/Response in camel [message #1801303]

Hello

I'm having trouble receiving mqtt responses when i send mqtt queries via camel+kura cloud. I was reading:

https://eclipse.github.io/kura/ref/mqtt-namespace.html#mqtt-requestresponse-example

So i wrote a routebuilder to try it out:

public class CommunicationRoute extends RouteBuilder{
	private PayLoadConstructor payloadConstructor;
	
	public CommunicationRoute() {
		this.payloadConstructor = new PayLoadConstructor();
	}

	@Override
	public void configure() throws Exception {
		from("timer://heartbeat?fixedRate=true&period=10000").id("send_route")
		.process(this.payloadConstructor)
		.to("cloud:$EDC/test-gateway/CONF-V1/GET/configurations");

		from("cloud:$EDC/test-gateway/CONF-V1/REPLY/7777").id("receive_route")
		.log("${headers}")
		.log("${body}");

	}

}

And here is the payload builder:

public class PayLoadConstructor implements Processor{

	public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception {
		final KuraPayload kuraPayload = new KuraPayload();
		kuraPayload.setTimestamp(new Date());
		kuraPayload.addMetric("request.id", "7777");
		kuraPayload.addMetric("requester.client.id", "DemoEclipseLampNode");
		exchange.getIn().setBody(kuraPayload);
	}
}

The message is sent out, but i don't seem to receive any response, even though the other kura instance is running and is connected to the kapua server. The account name and client id is correct.

As i understand CONF-V1 is a kura service that receives these messages and sends a response? What could be missing here?

Are you using control topics?

Best regards,

Hi,

I'm not really sure, the page in question does not seem to mention what control topics are, so i assumed that the example in the kura page:

$EDC/guest/F0:DE:F1:C4:53:DB/CONF-V1/GET/configurations

is a control topic. I thought that 'CONF-V1' was a kura service that listens for the 'configurations' topic. Is this just a mock example and not a real service which listens to the 'configurations' topic?

I also forgot to add the account name, so i changed the topic from:

$EDC/test-gateway/CONF-V1/GET/configurations

"$EDC/Lamps/test-gateway/CONF-V1/GET/configurations"

But this still does not get any response.

So a few additional observations.

1) I tried using https://github.com/amitjoy/Kura-MQTT-Client-Utility to publish with the same topic and subscribe to the same topic as my original post and it worked.

2) When i send the message with camel, it gets stored in kapua data and does not seem to reach the kura device (at least i can't see it in the kura log)

3) The topic i write into the camel route gets appended by the camel cloud component with additional information.
So in route i write:

$EDC/Lamps/test-gateway/CONF-V1/GET/configurations

Which then i sent as:

Lamps/DemoEclipseLampNode/$EDC/Lamps/test-gateway/CONF-V1/GET/configurations

So it appends my eclipse instance (which i'm sending the message from) client id and account on top of the message that i write. Is this how it is supposed to work?

UPDATE:

I might have figured out the problem. Still need to do some testing, but i got a 200 response. The problem is that the camel component searches for client_id and other headers, and if it does not find them, it appends them, so i did:

My routbuilder:

public class CommunicationRoute extends RouteBuilder{
	private PayLoadConstructor payloadConstructor;
	
	public CommunicationRoute() {
		this.veryGood= new VeryGood();
		this.payloadConstructor = new PayLoadConstructor();
	}

	@Override
	public void configure() throws Exception {
		from("timer://heartbeat?fixedRate=true&period=100000").id("send_route")
		.process(this.payloadConstructor)
		.log("${headers}")
		.to("kura-cloud:CONF-V1/GET/configurations");

		from("kura-cloud:CONF-V1/REPLY/REQUEST_7RRBNIBVB0045TPM20VRQB1TNH").id("recieve_route")
		.log("${headers}")
		.log("${body}");

	}

}

My PayloadBuilder:

public class PayLoadConstructor implements Processor{

	public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception {
		final KuraPayload kuraPayload = new KuraPayload();
		kuraPayload.setTimestamp(new Date());
		exchange.getIn().setHeader(KuraCloudClientConstants.CAMEL_KURA_CLOUD_CONTROL, true);
		exchange.getIn().setHeader(KuraCloudClientConstants.CAMEL_KURA_CLOUD_DEVICEID, "test-gateway");
		kuraPayload.addMetric("request.id", "REQUEST_7RRBNIBVB0045TPM20VRQB1TNH");
		kuraPayload.addMetric("requester.client.id", "DemoEclipseLampNode");
		exchange.getIn().setBody(kuraPayload);
	}
}

Now it appends the headers that i put inside the exchange. 'KuraCloudClientConstants.CAMEL_KURA_CLOUD_CONTROL' appends $EDC, 'KuraCloudClientConstants.CAMEL_KURA_CLOUD_DEVICEID' appends the smartnode i'm sending this message to. Now the topic gets created correctly. This is the source code which appends the headers to the topic:

https://github.com/rhiot/rhiot/blob/82eac10e365f72bab9248b8c3bd0ec9a2fc0a721/gateway/components/camel-kura/src/main/java/io/rhiot/component/kura/cloud/KuraCloudProducer.java

Hi,

I try to understand what is your use-case, but there are some details missing...
Could you please explain what you're trying to achieve?

Best,
Pier

Hi

I was trying to familiarize myself with mqtt kura cloud communication.

I have two test kura devices and one kapua instance running.
First kura device has a camel mqtt publisher and subscriber routes.
First kura device sends an CONF-1 (or one of the examples in the kura webpage) mqtt request via camel route to the second device.

I was trying to get a response with the subscriber, which i eventually got when i made the changes in my former post. After the changes i get reponse header '200' and a body.

Now i'm trying to figure out how to decode the response body, which from what i understand is encoded with google protobuf.
