I have simple MQTT subscriber implemented in MqttHelper
class that works fine and receives subscriptions. But how I should deal when I need to send message to server from main program. I have method publish
that works fine from IMqttActionListener
but how to send text from main program on button pressed event?

Code that starts MQTT subscriber:
private void startMqtt() {
mqttHelper = new MqttHelper(getApplicationContext());
mqttHelper.setCallback(new MqttCallbackExtended()
{
@Override
public void connectComplete(boolean b, String s) {
Log.w("Mqtt", "Connect complete"+ s );
}
@Override
public void connectionLost(Throwable throwable) {
Log.w("Mqtt", "Connection lost" );
}
@Override
public void messageArrived(String topic, MqttMessage mqttMessage) throws Exception {
Log.w("Mqtt", mqttMessage.toString());
dataReceived.setText(mqttMessage.toString());
}
@Override
public void deliveryComplete(IMqttDeliveryToken iMqttDeliveryToken) {
Log.w("Mqtt", "Delivery complete" );
}
});
Log.w("Mqtt", "will publish");
}
Paho does not run on the UI thread, but it may asynchronously call back to the UI thread.
Just let an Activity
or Fragment
implement the MqttCallbackExtended
interface:
public class SomeActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements MqttCallbackExtended {
...
@Override
public void connectComplete(boolean reconnect, String serverURI) {
Log.d("Mqtt", "Connect complete > " + serverURI);
}
@Override
public void connectionLost(Throwable cause) {
Log.d("Mqtt", "Connection lost");
}
@Override
public void messageArrived(String topic, MqttMessage message) throws Exception {
Log.d("Mqtt", "Received > " + topic + " > " + message.toString());
}
@Override
public void deliveryComplete(IMqttDeliveryToken token) {
Log.d("Mqtt", "Delivery complete");
}
}
And construct the MqttHelper
with SomeActivity
as it's MqttCallbackExtended listener
:
public MqttHelper(Context context, MqttCallbackExtended listener) {
this.mqttAndroidClient = new MqttAndroidClient(context, serverUri, clientId);
this.mqttAndroidClient.setCallback(listener);
}
For example:
this.mqttHelper = new MqttHelper(this);
this.mqttHelper.setCallback(this);
this.mqttHelper.publish("Java", "SomeActivity will handle the callbacks.");
Handling these in Application
is problematic, because Application
has no UI and it's Context
has no Theme
. But for classes extending Activity
, Fragment
, DialogFragment
, RecyclerView.Adapter
, etc. it makes senses to implement the callback interface
, when wanting to interact with their UI.
For reference, MqttCallbackExtended
extends
MqttCallback
.
Another Solution:
Create a MQTTService
class that extends android.app.Service
.
Android Service class works in the main thread . So if you want to use another thread , you can use MqttAsyncClient
simply.
You will receive messages from the broker in another thread automatically (not main thread) in messageArrived()
using callback method.
Pass Data/command from the application UI (Activity-Fragment,...) to the MQTTService
by EventBus library simply.
messageArrived()
callback method to pass the received data from the broker to the desired section of your application.@Subscribe(threadMode = ThreadMode.MAIN)
in the destination to get data in the main thread.Sample Code:
public class MQTTService extends Service {
private MqttAsyncClient mqttClient;
private String serverURI;
@Override
public void onCreate() {
//do your initialization here
serverURI = "tcp://yourBrokerUrlOrIP:yourBrokerPort";
EventBus.getDefault().register(this);
}
@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
init();
connect();
}
private void init() {
mqttClient = new MqttAsyncClient(serverURI, yourClientId, new MemoryPersistence())
mqttClient.setCallback(new MqttCallback() {
@Override
public void connectionLost(Throwable cause) {
}
@Override
public void messageArrived(String topic, MqttMessage message) throws Exception {
//now you will receive messages from the broker in another thread automatically (not UI Thread).
//You can do your logic here. for example pass the received data to the different sections of the application:
EventBus.getDefault().post(new YourPOJO(topic, message, ...));
}
@Override
public void deliveryComplete(IMqttDeliveryToken token) {
}
});
}
private MqttConnectOptions getOptions(){
MqttConnectOptions options = new MqttConnectOptions();
options.setKeepAliveInterval(...);
options.setMqttVersion(MqttConnectOptions.MQTT_VERSION_3_1_1);
options.setAutomaticReconnect(true);
options.setCleanSession(false);
options.setUserName(...);
options.setPassword(...);
//options.setWill(...);
//your other configurations
return options;
}
private void connect() {
try {
IMqttToken token = mqttClient.connect(getOptions(), null, new IMqttActionListener() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(IMqttToken asyncActionToken) {
//do works after successful connection
}
@Override
public void onFailure(IMqttToken asyncActionToken, Throwable exception) {
}
});
} catch (MqttException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
@Override
public void onDestroy() {
EventBus.getDefault().unregister(this);
mqttClient.close();
mqttClient.disconnect();
}
//this method receives your command from the different application sections
//you can simply create different "MqttCommandPOJO" classes for different purposes
@Subscribe
public void receiveFromApp1(MqttCommandPOJO1 pojo1) {
//do your logic(1). For example:
//publish or subscribe something to the broker (QOS=1 is a good choice).
}
@Subscribe
public void receiveFromApp2(MqttCommandPOJO2 pojo2) {
//do your logic(2). For example:
//publish or subscribe something to the broker (QOS=1 is a good choice).
}
}
Now You can simply receive the data passed from the MQTTService
in every section of your application.
For example:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
...
@Subscribe(threadMode = ThreadMode.MAIN)
public void receiveFromMQTTService(YourPojo pojo){
//Do your logic. For example update the UI.
}
}
