Boost Pub/Sub message service model Implementation
Hello, Currently, I am working on an IoT project where I need to send data from client to server. To transfer data, I need to setup a Pub/Sub message service model. Presently, I am using MQTT Paho C libraries to transmit data to server over TCP IP protocol but I want to switch to boost C++ library for the publish/subscribe model. I am a newbie to this library and have some queries: *1) Is there any boost C++ library for pub/sub model? If yes, please give me the details or link for the tutorial.* *2) If no library is present, please tell me how to implement a message pub/sub https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publish%E2%80%93subscribe_pattern service to communicate using boost C++ library?* Please, help me to solve these issues. Thanks & Regards, Rakshita Parihar

Nothing built-in, no. There's Boost.Beast, so you could build it on top of WebSocket yourself. C++11. https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_75_0/libs/beast/doc/html/index.html *2) If no library is present, please tell me how to implement a

Outside Boost, there's also https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets which is C++17 and has PubSub. (Warning, examples require C++20, and author is not friendly to newbie questions) Both approaches depend on WebSocket, so available from the Browser too. But you could also use Boost.ASIO directly if you want to avoid WebSocket, and go one level down to pure TCP/IP. https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_75_0/doc/html/boost_asio.html I'm a novice in this field though. Hopefully you'll get a better answer later. In all cases, there's a learning curve to what you're trying to do :) --DD

Here is boosts implementation for this software pattern. https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_75_0/doc/html/signals2.html Robert Ramey

Boost.Signals2 doesn't deal with network communication, which I think is what OP is asking.

Hmmm. I read the above as a request for details or link to the tutorial for a boost implementation of the publish/subscribe model, which is what I gave him. Robert Ramey

This program implements a server which receives and broadcasts messages to all clients: https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_75_0/libs/beast/doc/html/beast/examples.htm... There is also a video presentation on how it all works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FQwAjELMek Hope this helps!
