Overview

Lightweight MQTT machine network (LWMQN) is an open source project that follows part of OMA LWM2M v1.0 specification to meet the minimum requirements of machine network management.

• Server-side library: mqtt-shepherd (this module)
• Client-side library: mqtt-node
• A simple demo webapp

Installation

$ npm install mqtt-shepherd --save

Basic Usage

var MqttShepherd = require('mqtt-shepherd');
var qserver = new MqttShepherd();   // create a LWMQN server

qserver.on('ready', function () {
    console.log('Server is ready.');

    // when server is ready, allow devices to join the network within 180 secs
    qserver.permitJoin(180);
});

qserver.start(function (err) {      // start the sever
    if (err)
        console.log(err);
});

// That's all to start a LWMQN server.
// Now qserver is going to automatically tackle most of the network managing things.
