The MQTT data logger logs data to all monitored topics to the same log files. If the data need to be split into topics then it will need to be done by the log analyser software.

Republish HTML Data Over MQTT (Flight Arrivals )
HTTP is the protocol that powers the Web,and is the most common protocol on the Internet. Because http is a request/response protocol a visitor viewing a web page must issue a new request in order to refresh the data.
Continue readingLogging MQTT Sensor Data to SQL DataBase With Python
Most MQTT brokers don’t provide any mechanism for logging historical In this project we will create a simple data logger that logs data to a sqlite database.

This tutorial is in response to a question I received on the client connections tutorial page: I’ve been struggling to find a real client connection status tool, dashboard or anything which will show a list of my clients and their connection status. Clearly the broker via the low-level protocol mechanics maintain an MQTT keepalive table for each client — that’s how Last Will and Testament (LWT) is triggered internally by the broker. However how does one display such table? The problem is that you have no way of accessing the connections table on the broker so the only way is to

When you subscribe to an MQTT topic there is always a change that the subscription will fail. Therefore it is important that your code checks that the subscription succeeded.

Encrypting the MQTT payload rather than the link has the advantage that the data is encrypted end to end and not just between the broker and the client.
Continue readingSimple Python MQTT Data Logger
Most MQTT brokers don’t provide any mechanism for logging historical data for later analysis. However due to the publish/subscribe nature of MQTT is is easy to monitor, and log a data stream or streams using an MQTT client.
Continue readingSimple Controllable MQTT Sensor Simulator in Python
The aim of this project is to create a very simple two state sensor, that can be controlled externally using MQTT. The sensor could be used to simulate real world objects like lights, doors etc that have two states on or off, open or closed etc in IOT projects.
