EMQX is an open-source MQTT message broker that supports MQTT v5.0, v3.1.1, and v3.1 protocols. It is designed for high-performance, real-time, and scalable IoT, M2M, and Mobile applications. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install EMQX on Clear Linux Latest.
Before installing EMQX on Clear Linux Latest, make sure you have the following:
Firstly, ensure that your system has GCC and make installed using the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add c-basic
Next, we need to install the necessary dependencies required by EMQX. These include Erlang, git, and SSL development libraries.
To install Erlang, run the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add erlang
SSL development libraries:
sudo swupd bundle-add openssl
git:
sudo swupd bundle-add git
Next, we need to clone the EMQX repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/emqx/emqx.git
This will clone the repository to your current working directory.
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the EMQX directory using the following command:
cd emqx
Now, we can proceed to build EMQX by running the following command:
make
This will compile and build EMQX from source. It may take a few minutes to complete.
After successfully building EMQX, you can start it by running the following command:
./_build/emqx/rel/emqx/bin/emqx start
This will start the EMQX server. To stop the server, run the following command:
./_build/emqx/rel/emqx/bin/emqx stop
To verify that EMQX is running, you can check the logs by running the following command:
./_build/emqx/rel/emqx/bin/emqx console
This will launch the EMQX console where you can see logs of the EMQX server.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed EMQX on Clear Linux Latest. You can now start using EMQX as your MQTT message broker for your IoT, M2M, and Mobile applications.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
