SharkSSL™ Embedded SSL/TLS Stack

Detailed Description

A secure MQTT client designed for SharkSSL.

SharkMQTT is an extremely compact and secure MQTT client library optimized for memory constrained embedded systems. The MQTT stack is for this reason limited to message sizes less than 16384 bytes.

SharkMQTT_sessionPresent

◆ SharkMQTT_constructor()

void SharkMQTT_constructor ( SharkMQTT o,
U8 *  buf,
U16  bufLen 
)

Create a SharkMQTT client instance.

Parameters
oUninitialized data of size sizeof(SharkMQTT).
bufis used for internal management and must not be less than the size of the largest control message. Function SharkMQTT_getMessage will return SMQTTE_OVERFLOW if the buffer is not sufficiently large.
bufLenbuffer length.

◆ SharkMQTT_destructor()

void SharkMQTT_destructor ( SharkMQTT o)

Terminate a SharkMQTT instance.

Parameters
oSharkMQTT instance

◆ SharkMQTT_disconnect()

void SharkMQTT_disconnect ( SharkMQTT o)

Send a disconnect command to the broker and gracefully close the connection.

Parameters
oSharkMQTT instance

◆ SharkMQTT_getMessage()

int SharkMQTT_getMessage ( SharkMQTT o,
U8 **  msg 
)

Wait for messages sent from the broker.

Parameters
oSharkMQTT instance
msga pointer to the response data (out param)
Returns
  • a negative value signals an error code or an asynchronous response code.
  • a value greater than zero signals the reception of a full message or a message fragment. See receiving large packets for details.
Receiving large packets:
The MQTT protocol is frame based, but the function can return a fragment before the complete MQTT packet is received if the packet sent by the broker is larger than the SharkSSL buffer. The message payload length is returned in SharkMQTT::packetLen and the data consumed thus far is returned in SharkMQTT::bytesRead. The complete frame is consumed when SharkMQTT::packetLen == SharkMQTT::bytesRead. Function SharkMQTT_msgConsumed returns TRUE when the complete packet has been received.

Note: the default timeout value is set to one minute. You can set the timeout value by setting SharkMQTT::timeout to the number of milliseconds you want to wait for incoming messages before the timeout triggers. Note: Setting a long timeout may interfere with the built in PING timer.

◆ SharkMQTT_publish()

int SharkMQTT_publish ( SharkMQTT o,
const char *  topic,
const void *  msg,
int  msgLen,
U8  retain,
U8  qos 
)

Publish messages to a topic.

Messages with QOS 1 or 2 cannot be larger than the SharkSSL outbuf size.

Parameters
oSharkMQTT instance
topicthe topic name
msgmessage payload. This pointer is set to NULL when used together with function SharkMQTT_zeroCopyPub.
msgLenpayload length.
retainflag is set to TRUE or FALSE [MQTT-3.3.1.3]
qosQuality Of Zero is 0, 1, or 2. Note that SharkMQTT must dynamically allocate and keep messages with QOS 1 and 2 until the broker QOS handshaking has completed.
Returns
zero on success and a negative value on socket error.

SharkMQTT_pub0

◆ SharkMQTT_subscribe()

int SharkMQTT_subscribe ( SharkMQTT o,
const char *  topic,
U8  qos,
U16 *  packetId 
)

Subscribe to topic.

The response to SharkMQ_subscribe is asynchronous and returned as status SMQTT_SUBACK via SharkMQTT_getMessage.

Parameters
oSharkMQTT instance
topicthe topic name to subscribe to.
qosMaximum Quality Of Zero on inbound messages can be set to 0, 1, or 2. Note that SharkMQTT must dynamically allocate and keep a small control structure for each received message with QOS 2. This structure is kept until the broker QOS 2 handshaking has completed.
packetIdoptional packet ID. The packetId can be matched when SharkMQ_getMessage returns SMQTT_SUBACK.
Returns
zero on success and a negative value on socket error.

◆ SharkMQTT_unsubscribe()

int SharkMQTT_unsubscribe ( SharkMQTT o,
const char *  topic,
U16 *  packetId 
)

Requests the broker to unsubscribe the client from a topic.

The response to SharkMQ_unsubscribe is asynchronous and returned as status SMQTT_UNSUBACK via SharkMQTT_getMessage.

Parameters
oSharkMQTT instance
topicthe topic name to unsubscribe from.
packetIdoptional packet ID. The packetId can be matched when SharkMQ_getMessage returns SMQTT_UNSUBACK.
Returns
zero on success and a negative value on socket error.

◆ SharkMQTT_zeroCopyPub()

U8 * SharkMQTT_zeroCopyPub ( SharkMQTT o,
const char *  topic,
U8  qos,
int *  maxMsgLen 
)

Prepare a zero copy publish by fetching the SharkSSL send buffer pointer and offset the pointer to the MQTT message payload.

Parameters
oSharkMQTT instance
topicmust match topic passed into function SharkMQTT_publish
qosmust also match
maxMsgLenis an out value and indicates the maximum number of bytes that can be copied into the pointer return by this function. The length is the SharkSSL buffer's out buffer size - the MQTT header size.
Returns
a pointer to where you can copy the message.

Example:

int maxMsgLen;
U8* buf = SharkMQTT_zeroCopyPub(mqtt, "/message/", 1, &maxMsgLen);
strcpy(buf, "Hello World")
SharkMQTT_publish(mqtt, "/message/", NULL, strlen(buf), FALSE, 1);
U8 * SharkMQTT_zeroCopyPub(SharkMQTT *o, const char *topic, U8 qos, int *maxMsgLen)
Prepare a zero copy publish by fetching the SharkSSL send buffer pointer and offset the pointer to th...
int SharkMQTT_publish(SharkMQTT *o, const char *topic, const void *msg, int msgLen, U8 retain, U8 qos)
Publish messages to a topic.

Notice that the message pointer is set to NULL when calling SharkMQTT_publish.
