I have the following code working and would like to know how to modify it to set a QoS or retain flag;
- Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE
# Example of using the MQTT client class to subscribe to and publish feed values.
# Modified from examples by

# Import standard python modules.
import random
import sys
import time
# Import Adafruit IO MQTT client.
from Adafruit_IO import MQTTClient
# Set to your Adafruit IO key.
# Remember, your key is a secret,
# so make sure not to publish it when you publish this code!
ADAFRUIT_IO_KEY = 'Activity Key'
# Set to your Adafruit IO username.
# (go to https://accounts.adafruit.com to find your username)
ADAFRUIT_IO_USERNAME = 'username'
# Define callback functions which will be called when certain events happen.
def connected(client):
# Connected function will be called when the client is connected to Adafruit IO.
# This is a good place to subscribe to feed changes. The client parameter
# passed to this function is the Adafruit IO MQTT client so you can make
# calls against it easily.
print('Connected to Adafruit IO! Listening for DemoFeed changes...')
# Subscribe to changes on a feed named DemoFeed.
client.subscribe('DemoFeed')
def disconnected(client):
# Disconnected function will be called when the client disconnects.
print('Disconnected from Adafruit IO!')
sys.exit(1)
def message(client, feed_id, payload):
# Message function will be called when a subscribed feed has a new value.
# The feed_id parameter identifies the feed, and the payload parameter has
# the new value.
print('Feed {0} received new value: {1}'.format(feed_id, payload))
# Create an MQTT client instance.
client = MQTTClient(ADAFRUIT_IO_USERNAME, ADAFRUIT_IO_KEY)
# Setup the callback functions defined above.
client.on_connect = connected
client.on_disconnect = disconnected
client.on_message = message
# Connect to the Adafruit IO server.
client.connect()
# Now the program needs to use a client loop function to ensure messages are
# sent and received. There are a few options for driving the message loop,
# depending on what your program needs to do.
# This is why the python modules random, sys, time have been imported
# The first option is to run a thread in the background so you can continue
# doing things in your program.
client.loop_background()
# Now send new values every 10 seconds.
print('Publishing a new message every 10 seconds (press Ctrl-C to quit)...')
try:
while True:
value = random.randint(0, 100)
print('Publishing {0} to DemoFeed.'.format(value))
client.publish('DemoFeed', value)
time.sleep(10)
# If you do not have a feed called DemoFeed, one will be created with the first message.
except KeyboardInterrupt: # detect ctrl+c and handel it
client.disconnect()
