Basic example

This is a working barebones example of the usage of Beekeper.

To run this example start a worker pool of MyWorker processes:

cd beekeper/examples/basic
source setup.sh
./run.sh

Then make a request to the worker pool, using MyClient client:

./client.pl

Check the pool status:

bkpr-top

Finally stop the worker pool with:

./run.sh stop

Mosquitto setup

This example uses the internal ToyBroker to allow being run out of the box.

To run this example on a fresh install of Mosquitto set use_toybroker to false in config file pool.config.json. Then follow the instructions below to quickly setup a Mosquitto instance capable of running Beekeper applications with minimal security.

Create /etc/mosquitto/examples.conf

per_listener_settings   true
max_queued_messages     10000
set_tcp_nodelay         true

## Backend

listener            1883  127.0.0.1
protocol            mqtt
max_qos             1
persistence         false
retain_available    false
allow_anonymous     false
acl_file            /etc/mosquitto/backend.acl
password_file       /etc/mosquitto/backend.users

Create /etc/mosquitto/backend.acl

pattern  read   priv/%c/#

user backend

topic   readwrite   msg/#
topic   readwrite   req/#
topic   readwrite   res/#
topic   readwrite   log/#
topic   write       priv/#

Create a broker user running the following command:

mosquitto_passwd -c -b /etc/mosquitto/backend.users  backend  def456

Then the Mosquitto broker instance can be started with:

mosquitto -c /etc/mosquitto/examples.conf

If the broker is running elsewhere than localhost edit bus.config.json accordingly.
