| [paho-dev] Redis persistence patch and hiredis dependency |
Hi Al Stockdill-Mander has contributed an implementation of a client persistence plugin for the MQTT C client, which uses Redis as backing store. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=410419 It does so by using the hiredis library. https://github.com/redis/hiredis hiredis is under a BSD license. It's important to note that this is a sample, and it is not core to the project i.e. it is entirely optional, and serves as an example of how one might go about implementing an alternative persistence store. As such I think it comes under the "works-with" rather than the "prerequisite" definition from the 3rd party dependencies policy http://www.eclipse.org/org/documents/Eclipse_Policy_and_Procedure_for_3rd_Party_Dependencies_Final.pdf Under the same policy we are required to discuss this issue in the open on the mailing list. Does anyone have any objection to this sample being added to the C client, with an appropriate set of documentation describing that it is an example, and optional? Any members of the PMC care to comment? Thanks.
