All,
I am starting to look into Sparkplug B as I see it growing really fast in the Iot space.
Apparently it's a very nice application layer addition to the MQTT protocol, basically it defines a standard message structure
namespace/group_id/message_type/edge_node_id/[device_id]
where the message_type is further specified to include a lot of structured info:
• NBIRTH – Birth certificate for MQTT EoN nodes. • NDEATH – Death certificate for MQTT EoN nodes. • DBIRTH – Birth certificate for Devices. • DDEATH – Death certificate for Devices. • NDATA – Node data message. • DDATA – Device data message. • NCMD – Node command message. • DCMD – Device command message. • STATE – Critical application state message.
Additionally, the Sparkplug B specs relies on google protobuffers to encode and decode the payloads.
Now two question
1- is there a B4x mqtt library supporting sparkplug B ?
2- I know very little about google protobuf but I believe are a form of serialization, is there any available implementation of protobuf or examples to do that using B4XSerialiaziation ?
any help welcome!!!
