Verne MQ to Mosquitto MQ : MQTT bridge configuration

Verne MQ to Mosquitto MQ : MQTT bridge configuration

In this exercise, we shall try to setup an mqttbridge that pulls data from verne mq to mosquitto mq

Get mosquitto ready in docker

  • make docker file 
    FROM eclipse-mosquitto
WORKDIR /mosquitto/config

COPY mosquitto.conf mosquitto.conf
EXPOSE 1883 9000

CMD ["/usr/sbin/mosquitto", "-c", "/mosquitto/config/mosquitto.conf"]
  • make config file 
    listener 1883
protocol websockets
autosave_interval 60
log_type information
log_type notice
log_type warning
log_type error

Get your vernemq ready in docker

  • make docker file 
    FROM vernemq/vernemq:1.12.1
WORKDIR /vernemq

EXPOSE 1884
ENV DOCKER_VERNEMQ_ACCEPT_EULA=yes
ENV DOCKER_VERNEMQ_ALLOW_ANONYMOUS=on

CMD ["start_vernemq"]

Build

  • Go to docker file location of mosquitto
  • docker build -t mosmq -f Dockerfile .
  • Go to docker file location of vernemq
  • docker build -t vernemq -f Dockerfile .

Run

  • vernemq
    • docker run --rm -it -p 1884:1883/tcp vernemq:latest
  • mosquitto
    • docker run --rm -it -p 1883:1883/tcp mosmq:latest

Verify

  • Using mqtt explorer, we can connect to vernemq. Once connected publish a message
  • You may verify the data by pulling mosquito logs
