We have already described MQTT installation in the previous post, also need to test the scalability and load behaviour of MQTT environments.
Requires:
Before that, necessary to install requires packages mosquitto python library 1.x or greater and supporting packages,
Install and Update:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install gcc
$ sudo apt-ge install libtool
$ sudo apt-get install python-pip
$ sudo apt-get install git
$ sudo apt-get -y install python-mosquitto
$ sudo apt-get install unzip
Check your PIP and Python version,
$ sudo pip --version
pip 1.5.4 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)
root@ip-172-30-1-121:~# python -V
Python 2.7.6
Download MQTT-python for install
$ sudo git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/paho/org.eclipse.paho.mqtt.python.git
$ cd org.eclipse.paho.mqtt.python/
$ python setup.py install
$ pip install fusepy
Now, download the mqtt-malaria package and test.
$ sudo wget https://github.com/remakeelectric/mqtt-malaria/archive/master.zip
$ sudo unzip master.zip
$ sudo cd mqtt-malaria-master
Edit configure file, set an IP address which is installed MQTT server for testing scalability and performance
$ sudo vim Vagrantfile
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
servers = {
:bee1 => "192.168.2.12"
:bee2 => "192.168.2.20"
}
Execute the below command to test load performance,
./malaria publish -P 100 -n 1000 -H 192.168.2.20 -s 100 -T 1 -q 0
If you may get an error like,
ImportError: No module named mosquitto or require any other package just run the below command,
$ sudo chmod +x vagrant.bootstrap.sh
$ sudo ./vagrant.bootstrap.sh
