Step 3: Set Default Server URL

Ensure that the server you have placed your custom adapter, including the required configuration files on is set as the Default Server URL. The Streaming Server being used to compile the project that is using the custom adapter needs to have access to the adapter configuration files during the compile process.

  1. Select Window > Preferences in your IDE.

    Setting Default URL Preferences

  2. With the Preferences window now open, select SAP HANA streaming analytics and, if necessary, change the Default Server URL to match the ip address of the machine you are running the Streaming Server. Click Apply and then OK.

    Setting Default URL Preferences

Step 6: Send an MQTT Message using Mosquitto

Open another command prompt (CMD) window and navigate to the install directory of Mosquitto. The default location is in C:\Program Files (x86)/Mosquitto.

Run the mosquitto_pub.exe program with 

mosquitto_pub.exe -t“<topic>” –m “<message>” –h “<your-ip-address>”.

E.g. mosquitto_pub.exe –t "test" –m "Hello World!" –h "1.0.100.200"

Send an MQTT Message with Mosquitto

You should now be able to view the published MQTT message in InputWindow1.
