Hello friends,
I’ll write in this topic about MQTT with ESP32. Publish. Subscribe. Broker. Mosquitto,…
0.- Board D1 R32 ESP32.
This is a cheap card ($ 5) with the dimensions and shape of the Arduino UNO, but with the ESP32. I used this card in the ESP32 Wifi and ESP32 BLE tutorials.
Search images: D1 R2 ESP32
This card has classic Bluetooth, BLE, WiFi, ADC, DAC, and more features.
This card can be programmed with the Arduino IDE.

2.- ESP32 Publish random numbers. App is Subscrited to that topic and receive those numbers.
-
We will use the Broker broker.hivemq.com Port (1883).
-
To start we will use a third party application: Linear MQTT Dasboard (from Play Google)
-
We need the PubSubClient library.
-
Sketch / Include Library / Manage Libraries… PubSubClient
-
Create random numbers in topic juan/aleatorio
-
It sends to Broker.

3.- App Publish status Button. ESP32 is Subscripted to that topic and receive that status. LED2 on/off
- Now we add a button (Switch) to the application, see the image.
- The application will Publish the status of the Swicht through the topic juan/boton
- When Swicht button, LED2 on/off [LED2 is LED_BUILTIN in ESP32 board]

16.- Basic example of Subscribe and Publish to HiveMQ.
Normally MQTT is used in IoT, example: a sensor in a hardware sends a short message to a Broker and in real time an app receives it, or an app sends a short message to a Broker and this information is received by a hardware that performs a certain function.
We are going to see a basic example of Publish and Subscribe in the HiveMQ Broker.
We will not use hardware, only the application and the Broker.
- Do this example! No registration required.

-
We create the same Topic in Publish and Subscriptions: juan/Slider
-
We set two Sliders, Publish and Subscribe the same topic: juan/Slider
-
The first Slider sends the information directly. The second Slider uses the SliderTools extension and will send the value when "TouchUp".
-
The information will travel in "go and return".
-
We observe that the information "sends" and "receives" quite fast.
