module Agents
class MqttAgent < Agent
description <<-MD
The MQTT agent allows both publication and subscription to an MQTT topic.
MQTT is a generic transport protocol for machine to machine communication.
You can do things like:
* Publish to [RabbitMQ](http://www.rabbitmq.com/mqtt.html)
* Run [OwnTracks, a location tracking tool](http://owntracks.org/) for iOS and Android
* Subscribe to your home automation setup like [Ninjablocks](http://forums.ninjablocks.com/index.php?p=/discussion/661/today-i-learned-about-mqtt/p1) or [TheThingSystem](http://thethingsystem.com/dev/supported-things.html)
Simply choose a topic (think email subject line) to publish/listen to, and configure your service.
It's easy to setup your own [broker](http://jpmens.net/2013/09/01/installing-mosquitto-on-a-raspberry-pi/) or connect to a [cloud service](http://www.cloudmqtt.com)
Hints:
Many services run mqtts (mqtt over SSL) often with a custom certificate.
You'll want to download their cert and install it locally, specifying the ```certificate_path``` configuration.
Example configuration:
<pre><code>{
'uri' => 'mqtts://user:pass@locahost:8883'
'ssl' => :TLSv1,
'ca_file' => './ca.pem',
'cert_file' => './client.crt',
'key_file' => './client.key',
'topic' => 'huginn'
}
</code></pre>
Subscribe to CloCkWeRX's TheThingSystem instance (thethingsystem.com), where
temperature and other events are being published.
<pre><code>{
'uri' => 'mqtt://kcqlmkgx:sVNoccqwvXxE@m10.cloudmqtt.com:13858',
'topic' => 'the_thing_system/demo'
}
</code></pre>
Subscribe to all topics
<pre><code>{
'uri' => 'mqtt://kcqlmkgx:sVNoccqwvXxE@m10.cloudmqtt.com:13858',
'topic' => '/#'
}
</code></pre>

event_description <<-MD
Events are simply nested MQTT payloads. For example, an MQTT payload for Owntracks
<pre><code>{
"topic": "owntracks/kcqlmkgx/Dan",
"message": {"_type": "location", "lat": "-34.8493644", "lon": "138.5218119", "tst": "1401771049", "acc": "50.0", "batt": "31", "desc": "Home", "event": "enter"},
"time": 1401771051
}</code></pre>
