rc-mqtt

中文说明

Overview

This library is focused in help you to connect, publish and subscribe to a Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) in ReactJS with the power of React Hooks.

Flow of Data

1. WiFi or other mobile sensors publish data to an MQTT broker
2. ReactJS subscribes to the MQTT broker and receives the data using MQTT.js
3. React's state is updated and the data is passed down to stateless components

Installation

Just add rc-mqtt to your project:

yarn add rc-mqtt

Hooks availables

• useMqttState -> return { connectionStatus, client, message }
• useSubscription(topic: string | string[], options?: {} ) -> return { client, topic, message, connectionStatus }

Usage

Currently, rc-mqtt exports one enhancers. Similarly to react-redux, you'll have to first wrap a root component with a Connector which will initialize the mqtt instance.

Root component

The only property for the connector is the connection information for mqtt.Client#connect

Example Root component:

import React from 'react';

import { Connector } from 'rc-mqtt';
import Status from './Status';

export default function App() {
  return (
    <Connector brokerUrl="wss://test.mosquitto.org:1884">
      <Status />
    </Connector>
  );
}

Example Connection Status

import React from 'react';

import { useMqttState } from 'rc-mqtt';

export default function Status() {
  /*
   * Status list
   * - Offline
   * - Connected
   * - Reconnecting
   * - Closed
   * - Error: printed in console too
   */
  const { connectionStatus } = useMqttState();

  return <h1>{`Status: ${connectionStatus}`}</h1>;
}

Subscribe

Example Posting Messages

MQTT Client is passed on useMqttState and can be used to publish messages via mqtt.Client#publish and don't need Subscribe

import React from 'react';
import { useMqttState } from 'rc-mqtt';

export default function Status() {
  const { client } = useMqttState();

  function handleClick(message) {
    return client.publish('esp32/led', message);
  }

  return (
    <button type="button" onClick={() => handleClick('false')}>
      Disable led
    </button>
  );
}

Example Subscribing and Receiving messages

import React from 'react';

import { useSubscription } from 'rc-mqtt';

export default function Status() {
  /* Message structure:
   *  topic: string
   *  message: string
   */
  const { message } = useSubscription(['room/esp32/testing', 'room/esp32/light']);

  return (
    <div>
      <span>{`topic:${message.topic} - message: ${message.message}`}</span>
    </div>
  );
}

Tips

1. If you need to change the format in which messages will be inserted in message useState, you can pass the option of parserMethod in the Connector:

import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { Connector, useSubscription } from 'rc-mqtt';

const Children = () => {
  const { message, connectionStatus } = useSubscription('esp32/testing/#');
  const [messages, setMessages] = useState < any > [];

  useEffect(() => {
    if (message) setMessages((msgs: any) => [...msgs, message]);
  }, [message]);

  return (
    <>
      <span>{connectionStatus}</span>
      <hr />
      <span>{JSON.stringify(messages)}</span>
    </>
  );
};

const App = () => {
  return (
    <Connector
      brokerUrl="wss://test.mosquitto.org:1884"
      parserMethod={(msg) => msg} // msg is Buffer
    >
      <Children />
    </Connector>
  );
};
