Today (just) marks the 2nd birthday of the mosquitto project. In the past year
|
||
|
|
mosquitto has undergone pretty substantial changes and improvements. Some
|
||
|
|
highlights from the year:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Move away from using sqlite to store data in memory and on disk, resulting
|
||
|
|
in a much more compact, better performing and *more elegant* broker
|
||
|
|
* Windows native port
|
||
|
|
* MQTT 3.1 support
|
||
|
|
* Greatly improved Python module
|
||
|
|
* Getting really close to being feature complete with respect to RSMB
|
||
|
|
* Being packaged in Debian...
|
||
|
|
* ... and Ubuntu
|
||
|
|
* The mosquitto client code being used by Facebook in their iphone app
|
||
|
|
* The numerous bugs reported, bugfixes, suggestions and general interest
|
||
|
|
displayed by people. Thanks everyone!

Mosquitto has gone from version 0.8.3 to 0.13 - so what about next year? This
|
||
|
|
will be the year when 1.0 is released. The bar I'm setting is complete RSMB
|
||
|
|
features, with the exception of some of the more esoteric ones. At the moment
|
||
|
|
this means there are still some of the bridge features to implement and
|
||
|
|
complete configuration reloading. I'm also going to have a much improved
|
||
|
|
Windows port so there will be no need for a separate Cygwin version. At the
|
||
|
|
same time I'm making a Windows installer and allowing mosquitto to be installed
|
||
|
|
as a proper Windows service. This work should all be in 0.14. Another point for
|
||
|
|
improvement is the Python module - it could be more Pythonic than it is now. My
|
||
|
|
current plan is to have it throw exceptions rather than return integer error
|
||
|
|
values but I could do with the help of a Python expert really.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All in all I think it should be a good year.
