## M2M
(Machine-to-Machinie)
> M2M is a broad label that can be used to describe any technology that enables networked devices to exchange information and perform actions without the manual assistance of humans.

## What is MQTT?
* [MQTT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQTT) (Message Queue Telemetry Transport)
* lightweight publish-subscribe protocol that is used on top of TCP/IP
* designed to _M2M_ communications
* uses _publisher/subscriber pattern_ and _MQ model_
* becoming one of the main protocols for _IoT_

## The Basics
* broker
* topics
* publisher
* subscriber
* message
IoT Example
[](https://mosquitto.org/)
## [Eclipse Mosquitto™](https://mosquitto.org/)
* an open source lightweight MQTT broker
* implements the MQTT protocol versions 3.1 and 3.1.1
* install with
`sudo apt install mosquitto`
`sudo apt install mosquitto-clients`
## `mosquitto_pub`
* client for publishing simple messages
* syntax:
`mosquitto_pub -h host -t topic -m message`
Notes:
* man mosquitto_pub
## `mosquitto_sub`
* client for subscribing to topics
* syntax:
`mosquitto_sub -h host -t topic [-F format]`
* example:
`mosquitto_sub -h localhost -t '#' -F "%t: %p"`
Notes:
* man mosquitto_sub
## Topics
* string used by broker to filter messages
* consist of one/more topic levels
* topic level separator is '`/`'
* topics don't need to be initialized first
* cAsE sEnsItIvE
* allows to use wildcards when subscribing:
* '`#`' - multi level
* '`+'` - single level

## MQTT and ESP32
* package `umqtt`
## Get Ready for Watson
* no direct support for _Watson_
* install appropriate package with `upip`
* _MicroPython_ version of `pip`
* packages for _MicroPython_ have prefix `micropython-`
* install `micropython-watson-iot` package:
```python
import upip
upip.install('micropython-watson-iot')
```
## ESP32 with Watson
```python
from watson_iot import Device
device = Device(device_id='esp32-dht22',
device_type='my-device-type',
token='my-device-token')
device.connect()
device.publishEvent('temperature',
{'degrees': 30.7, 'unit': 'C'}
)
```
## The Final Code
```python
# imports ...
sensor = DHT11(Pin(23))
device = Device(device_id='esp32-with-dht22',
device_type='type', token='token')
device.connect()
while True:
sensor.measure()
temp = sensor.temperature()
device.publishEvent('temperature', {'degrees': temp,
'unit': 'C'})
sleep(10)
```
