This communication package is based on MQTTnet and MQTTnet.Extensions.ManagedClient libraries by Christian Kratky. See MQTT communication packages for a summary of the communication package and the library. The library supports Client and Server roles; the communication package only supports the Client role.
See Using communication packages for instructions on how to select the communication package, and configure it.
Client role
The type name of the message channel object is: OpcLabs.MqttNet.ManagedMqttClientMessageChannel,OpcLabs.MqttNet .
Opening the channel
URL string
If the URL string has "mqtt", "mqtts", "ssl", "tcp" or "tls" scheme, TCP protocol (possibly with SSL/TLS) will be used. In this case, the URL is parsed by the communication package and various pieces of information are extracted from it. The syntax is:
scheme:[//[username[:password]@]host[:port]][/clientId=clientId]
If the client credentials have not been specified in the configuration (see below), which is the default, the username and password from the URL are used. The port defaults to 1883 for "mqtt", "tcp" schemes, and to 8883 for "mqtts", "ssl" schemes.
The "mqtt" and "tcp" schemes are equivalent, and denote a use of TCP protocol without SSL/TLS. The "mqtts", "ssl" and "tls" schemes are equivalent, and denote a use of TCP protocol with SSL/TLS.
Using the clientId query parameter you can override the default clientId supplied by host software. Additional query parameters can be specified, and are ignored.
Examples:
mqtt://test.mosquitto.org mqtts://test.mosquitto.org
If the URL string has "ws" or "wss" scheme, WebSocket protocol (possibly with TLS, for "wss") will be used. In this case, the URL is passed onto the underlying library unchanged (the user info is still extracted from it and interpreted by the communication package).
Examples:
ws://test.mosquitto.org:8080/mqtt wss://test.mosquitto.org:8081/mqtt
If the scheme in the URL is not one of the schemes listed here, the message channel will still open, using the clientId and cleanSession flag provided by the host software, and all other parameters given by the configuration properties. This will fail under normal circumstances - unless you have carefully set all properties as necessary.
Interface name
The interface name, if provided by the host software, is ignored.
Certificates
Due to limitations imposed by the underlying library, if the host software specifies its own server certificate validation, this validation can allow additional server certificates be accepted over what the library accepts by default, but no server certificate accepted by the library by its default mechanism can be rejected by the host validation. Also, the host can provide a list of client certificates, but cannot influence the certificate selection.
Configuration
The table below lists the available properties, their types, and descriptions. Most properties come from configurable options of the underlying library, so please refer to the its documentation for details (we could not find a comprehensive reference documentation for this library, that's why most descriptions are missing). Do not get scared by the number of configurable properties; the relevant ones can usually stay at their defaults, or usually overridden from the host software (as noted). We will emphasize specific properties if they are important.
