A tokio-based MQTT v5 broker written in Rust.
The goals for this project are fairly straightforward:
- Adhere to the MQTT V5 Spec
- Be easily deployable as a single binary
- Have reasonable performance and memory usage on a single node
I originally started this project as a simple, open-source broker for any IoT products I might make. If I were to sell such products, I would want to allow users to run their own broker in case I can no longer run one, and it should be as easy as possible to do so.
Extra features like a broker cluster or extra transport layers are nice to have features, but won't be considered until the core V5 spec is implemented. The exception to this is the WebSocket transport, which is specifically mentioned in the spec and quite useful to have.
Wikipedia has a fairly comprehensive list of brokers to choose from.
rumqtt at the moment appears to be the most fully-featured broker. Take a look there first if you're looking for a more "ready-to-go" Rust broker.
PubSubRT is another interesting Rust-based broker. It's an alternative to MQTT, not an implementation of it.
This broker is currently not compliant with the MQTT V5 spec. Visit the spec compliance milestone to see the current progress.

- rustc (version 1.39 or later)
$ cargo build --release
$ cargo run --release

$ cargo clippy
Fuzzing requires a nightly toolchain. Fuzzing for this project is currently confirmed to work with:
rustc 1.42.0-nightly (6d3f4e0aa 2020-01-25)
cargo install cargo-fuzz
cargo +nightly fuzz run decoder_fuzzer_v311
cargo +nightly fuzz run decoder_fuzzer_v500
cargo +nightly fuzz run topic_filter_fuzzer
cargo +nightly fuzz run topic_fuzzer
