This structure represents a persistent data store, used to store outbound and inbound messages, in order to achieve reliable messaging.
The MQTT Client persists QoS1 and QoS2 messages in order to meet the assurances of delivery associated with these Quality of service levels. The messages are saved in persistent storage The type and context of the persistence implementation are specified when the MQTT client is created (see MQTTClient_create()). The default persistence type (MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_DEFAULT) uses a file system-based persistence mechanism. The persistence_context argument passed to MQTTClient_create() when using the default peristence is a string representing the location of the persistence directory. If the context argument is NULL, the working directory will be used.
To use memory-based persistence, an application passes MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_NONE as the persistence_type to MQTTClient_create(). This can lead to message loss in certain situations, but can be appropriate in some cases (see Quality of service).
Client applications can provide their own persistence mechanism by passing MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_USER as the persistence_type. To implement a custom persistence mechanism, the application must pass an initialized MQTTClient_persistence structure as the persistence_context argument to MQTTClient_create().
If the functions defined return an MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR then the state of the persisted data should remain as it was prior to the function being called. For example, if Persistence_put() returns MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR, then it is assumed tha tthe persistent store does not contain the data that was passed to the function. Similarly, if Persistence_remove() returns MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR then it is assumed that the data to be removed is still held in the persistent store.
It is up to the persistence implementation to log any error information that may be required to diagnose a persistence mechanism failure.
This persistence_type value specifies the default file system-based persistence mechanism (see MQTTClient_create()).
This persistence_type value specifies a memory-based persistence mechanism (see MQTTClient_create()).
This persistence_type value specifies an application-specific persistence mechanism (see MQTTClient_create()).
Application-specific persistence functions must return this error code if there is a problem executing the function.
Initialize the persistent store. Either open the existing persistent store for this client ID or create a new one if one doesn’t exist. If the persistent store is already open, return without taking any action.
An application can use the same client identifier to connect to many different servers. The clientid in conjunction with the serverURI uniquely identifies the persistence store required.
Parameters
handle The address of a
pointer to a handle for this persistence implementation.
This function must set handle to a valid reference to the
persistence following a successful return. The handle
pointer is passed as an argument to all the other
persistence functions. It may include the context parameter
and/or any other data for use by the persistence functions.
clientID The client identifier for which the persistent
store should be opened.
serverURI The connection string specified when the MQTT
client was created (see MQTTClient_create()).
context A pointer to any data required to initialize the
persistent store (see MQTTClient_persistence).
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
Close the persistent store referred to by the handle.
Parameters
handle The handle pointer from a successful call to Persistence_open().
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
Put the specified data into the persistent store.
Parameters
handle The handle
pointer from a successful call to Persistence_open().
key A string used as the key for the data to be put in
the store. The key is later used to retrieve data from the
store with Persistence_get().
bufcount The number of buffers to write to the
persistence store.
buffers An array of pointers to the data buffers
associated with this key.
buflens An array of lengths of the data buffers.
buflen[n] gives the length of buffer[n].
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
Retrieve the specified data from the persistent store.
Parameters
handle The handle
pointer from a successful call to Persistence_open().
key A string that is the key for the data to be
retrieved. This is the same key used to save the data to the
store with Persistence_put().
buffer The address of a pointer to a buffer. This
function sets the pointer to point at the retrieved data, if
successful.
buflen The address of an int that is set to the length
of buffer by this function if successful.
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
Remove the data for the specified key from the store.
Parameters
handle The handle
pointer from a successful call to Persistence_open().
key A string that is the key for the data to be removed
from the store. This is the same key used to save the data
to the store with Persistence_put().
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
Returns the keys in this persistent data store.
Parameters
handle The handle
pointer from a successful call to Persistence_open().
keys The address of a pointer to pointers to strings.
Assuming successful execution, this function allocates
memory to hold the returned keys (strings used to store the
data with Persistence_put()). It also allocates
memory to hold an array of pointers to these strings.
keys is set to point to the array of pointers to
strings.
nkeys A pointer to the number of keys in this persistent
data store. This function sets the number of keys, if
successful.
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
Clears the persistence store, so that it no longer contains any persisted data.
Parameters
handle The handle pointer from a successful call to Persistence_open().
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
Returns whether any data has been persisted using the specified key.
Parameters
handle The handle
pointer from a successful call to Persistence_open().
key The string to be tested for existence in the
store.
Returns
Return 0 if the key was found in the store, otherwise return MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR.
A callback which is invoked just before a write to persistence. This can be used to transform the data, for instance to encrypt it.
Parameters
context The context as
set in ::MQTTAsync_setBeforePersistenceWrite
bufcount The number of buffers to write to the
persistence store.
buffers An array of pointers to the data buffers.
buflens An array of lengths of the data buffers.
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise non 0.
A callback which is invoked just after a read from persistence. This can be used to transform the data, for instance to decrypt it.
Parameters
context The context as
set in ::MQTTAsync_setAfterPersistenceRead
buffer The address of a pointer to a buffer.
buflen The address of an int that is the length of the
buffer.
Returns
Return 0 if the function completes successfully, otherwise non 0.
