MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transmission) is an IoT Communication protocol built on the TCP\/IP protocol of the Internet. There is no doubt that MQTT protocol has become a standard for IoT communications because it really has a lot of advantages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also posted an article that introduced the basic understanding of MQTT and will have a comparison between other internet protocols and MQTT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Benjamin Cab\u00e9’s project: use MQTT over TLS on Wio Terminal<\/a>. We are looking forward to more projects from the community! Please also don’t be hesitate to let us know what update for Wio Terminal you want to see. We will carefully listen to the community and take action! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This sample application shows you how to use MQTT over TLS on the Wio Terminal<\/a> from Seeed Studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As PlatformIO<\/a> supports<\/a> the Wio Terminal, the sample comes in the form a PlatformIO project. This means that you don’t have to worry about installing the multiple Arduino libraries<\/a> the Wio Terminal requires for Wi-Fi & TLS, and you don’t need to manually install the PubSubClient MQTT library either. All dependencies are automatically fetched from Github by the PlatformIO Library Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to run the sample, just update the ssid<\/code> and password<\/code> variables in main.cpp<\/code><\/a> with your Wi-Fi SSID and password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

const char *ssid = \"<your-ssid>\";      \/\/ your network SSID\nconst char *password = \"<your-password>\"; \/\/ your network password<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Use the PlatformIO IDE<\/a> (VS Code extension) or the PlatformIO command-line interface<\/a> to deploy the application to your Wio Terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once running, the sample will connect to the public MQTT server running at mqtt.eclipse.org<\/code> over TLS, publish “Hello from Wio Terminal” on the outTopic<\/code> topic, and print on the serial output the contents of any message received on inTopic<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you’d like to use a different MQTT broker, you will need to update the test_root_ca<\/code> variable accordingly (it should be set to the root CA for the server you want to connect to).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IMPORTANT: A mistake that is often done when using the PubSubClient for real-world project, is to not pay attention to the fact that, by default, it’s defining a maximum MQTT message size of 256 bytes. Make sure to call PubSubClient::setBufferSize(size)<\/code> with the desired message size if 256 bytes is not enough for your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
