Module mqtt.connector.copas

Copas based connector.

Copas is an advanced coroutine scheduler in pure-Lua. It uses LuaSocket under the hood, but in a non-blocking way. It also uses LuaSec for TLS based connections (like the mqtt.connector.luasocket one). And hence uses the same defaults for the secure option when creating the client.

Caveats:

* the client option ssl_module is not supported by the Copas connector, It will always use the module named ssl.

* multiple threads can send simultaneously (sending is wrapped in a lock)

* since the client creates a long lived connection for reading, it returns upon receiving a packet, to call an event handler. The handler must return swiftly, since while the handler runs the socket will not be reading. Any task that might take longer than a few milliseconds should be off loaded to another thread (the Copas-loop will take care of this).

NOTE: you will need to install copas like this: luarocks install copas.
