Thanks in advance

I don't know your knowledge level nor what you've tried so the following may be a bit too basic.

Take a look at mqtt.js for your angular app. https://github.com/mqttjs/MQTT.js

It works in the browser and in the backend if it is node.js based.

You have not described what you are trying to achieve other than connect to a broker. So, on the app side of the equation, you need a publisher to send data to the broker and a subscriber to get data.

If you need a test instance of a broker take a look at the Eclipse Mosquitto (https://mosquitto.org/) project from where you can download code to quickly set up a broker or use the project's test broker. You may also use either Mosca or Aedes for creating brokers (check NPM).

In order to get an understanding of the operations, use the mqtt.js client on the command line to create publishers & subscribers.

To send data, you have to create a data packet. MQTT handles a wide range of data types. For command line testing, you could publish simple strings to a topic and on the subscriber side receive packets (messages) on the same topic. Suggest you use QOS0 and no auth to get started.

After you have proved connectivity to a broker, you could work on code integration to your app. I'd think that once you had your Angular app wired up and working, it will be easier to choose a client for Ionic (I have no suggestions).

Best,

David

Am try like this 

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

import { NavController } from 'ionic-angular';

import { Paho } from 'ng2-mqtt/mqttws31';

@Component({

  selector: 'page-home',

  templateUrl: 'home.html'

})

export class HomePage {

  topic:any;

  client:any;

  constructor(public navCtrl: NavController) {

    this.playCanzone()

  }

  //var client; topic;

playCanzone() {

    console.log("play premuto");

    var mqttHost = 'iot.mmqttbroker.com';

    this.topic = 'testTopic';

    this.client = new Paho.MQTT.Client(mqttHost, 1883, "myclientid_" + parseInt(Math.random() * 100, 10));

    // set callback handlers

    this.client.onConnectionLost = this.onConnectionLost;

    this.client.onMessageArrived = this.onMessageArrived;

  

    // connect the client

    this.client.connect({ onSuccess: this.onConnect });

  }

  // called when the client connects

onConnect() {

  // Once a connection has been made, make a subscription and send a message.

  console.log("onConnect");

  this.client.subscribe(this.topic);

  var message = new Paho.MQTT.Message("Hello");

  message.destinationName = this.topic;

  this.client.send(message);

}

// called when the client loses its connection

onConnectionLost(responseObject) {

  if (responseObject.errorCode !== 0) {

    console.log("onConnectionLost:" + responseObject.errorMessage);

  }

}

// called when a message arrives

onMessageArrived(message) {

  console.log("onMessageArrived:" + message.payloadString);

}

}

but still showing an error also i given the below error message below WebSocket connection to 'ws://iot.mmqttbroker.com:1883/mqtt' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET

Please tell me what am doing wrong.

[David Richards]

1. I have been unable to find iot.mqttbroker.com which is declared as the mqtt host (terms are too generic). I'd like to see the connection docs.

2. From nq2-mqtt docs the correct import is import {Paho} from 'mqttws31'

3. Since the error appears to be a websocket handshake failure the Paho import may not instantiate the connection correctly. Also, the error indicates a 'mqtt' suffix to the url. I don't know if this is required in the connection string or is simply returned in the error message.

4. Overall, the code appears correct but it is mixed in with the angular code. Perhaps you could create an html file and strip out the angular code (including 'this' references")? Then, just open the file in a browser and check the console for errors. Obviously, make a call to playCanzone().

Thanks for your response. yes as per documentation import should be look like this 

import {Paho} from 'mqttws31';

but while  npm install ng2-mqtt after install folder structure look like this

Then I'd say the next step would be to isolate the code and check for connectivity.

Please could your suggest me a programming language which one is the best for iot project.

[David Richards]

I have not had time today to dig into the connection errors. However, I do not believe that the problem is with the programming language.

Paho clients come in many flavors and they are well tested and widely used.

1. Please ensure that you are using the correct host name. mMqttbroker or mqttbroker

2. Also post a link to the docs for the mqtt broker that you are specifying.

I followed this link  https://sakib.ninja/angular2-with-mqtt/

[David Richards]

The connection error message relates to the websocket handshake failure. 

As configured, you are using port 1883 which is the standard mqtt port.

A WS port needs to be specified. For example, Mosquitto uses port 8080 for WS. https://test.mosquitto.org/

I have given my credential below 
Username:anspl@mqtt
Host iot.msfmqttbroker.com

Port: :1883
Password:1234
Please check it out when will u get free time.

Thank u

[Sourav Halder]

Hey man. Hope you are doing well. Did you check my credentials?

[David Richards]

I used the host name you provided and it landed at "Apache2 Ubuntu Default Page ". 

There is no documentation at the location for an MQTT connection. 

I cannot spend the time trying to get a working setup with the credentials you supplied.

I strongly suggest that you simplify your testing. At least, use the Mosquitto test broker without authentication to prove you can connect.

Again, note that you have to use the correct port number for the protocol you are using (websockets, unencrypted)

I have previously used Paho clients with Mosquitto and the combination has worked without problems. 

Let us know the results of your testing after you have reviewed the client and server docs.

[David Richards]

The mosquitto broker is unreliable: use hivemq instead.

Attached code works. Open in a browser with the developer console open.

In order to configure for use with Host iot.msfmqttbroker.com,

you'll have to take a look at their docs for construction of the url with auth credentials.
