README

This repo is now deprecated since HAProxy 2.4 and above now have the same features natively integrated. 



Introduction
============

This repository contains a lua library to parse and retrieve information from a MQTT CONNECT message.
It is intentionnaly written to be used with HAProxy and may be useless outside this scope.

The code is split into 2 pieces:
1. mqtt.lua: contains the MQTT library itself
2. haproxy_mqtt.lua: creates native HAProxy features (converter, fetches, actions) that can be used in HAProxy's configuration for managing the MQTT CONNECT message

Usage
=====

* put both mqtt.lua and haproxy_mqtt.lua files in your /etc/haproxy folder or equivalent.
* update your haproxy's configuration to match your requirements. See haproxy.cfg file, it contains some use cases
