Clone the MoP project from GitHub to your local.\n\n    ```bash\n    git clone https://github.com/streamnative/mop.git\n    cd mop\n    ```\n\n2. Build the project.\n\n    ```bash\n    mvn clean install -DskipTests\n    ```\n\n3. The NAR file can be found at this location.\n\n    ```bash\n    ./mqtt-broker/target/pulsar-protocol-handler-mqtt-${version}.nar\n    ```\n\n### Install MoP protocol handler\n\nConfigure the Pulsar broker to run the MoP protocol handler as a plugin by adding configurations to the Pulsar configuration file, such as `broker.conf` or `standalone.conf`.\n\n1. Set the configuration of the MoP protocol handler.\n   \n    Add the following properties and set their values in the Pulsar configuration file, such as `conf/broker.conf` or `conf/standalone.conf`.\n\n    | Property | Suggested value | Default value |\n    |---|---|---\n    `messagingProtocols` | mqtt | null\n    `protocolHandlerDirectory`| Location of MoP NAR file | ./protocols\n    \n    **Example**\n\n    ```\n    messagingProtocols=mqtt\n    protocolHandlerDirectory=./protocols\n    ```\n2. Set the MQTT server listeners.\n\n    **Example**\n\n    ```\n    mqttListeners=mqtt://127.0.0.1:1883\n    advertisedAddress=127.0.0.1\n    ```\n\n   \u003e #### Note\n   \u003e The default hostname of `advertisedAddress` is InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName(). \n   \u003e If you'd like to config this, please keep the same as Pulsar broker's `advertisedAddress`.\n\n### Load MoP protocol handler\n\nAfter you install the MoP protocol handler to Pulsar broker, you can restart the Pulsar brokers to load the MoP protocol handler.\n\n### How to use Proxy\n\nTo use the proxy, follow the following steps. For detailed steps, refer to [Deploy a cluster on bare metal](http://pulsar.apache.org/docs/en/deploy-bare-metal/).\n\n1. Prepare a ZooKeeper cluster.\n\n2. Initialize the cluster metadata.\n\n3. Prepare a BookKeeper cluster.\n\n4. Copy the `pulsar-protocol-handler-mqtt-${version}.nar` to the `$PULSAR_HOME/protocols` directory.\n\n5. Start the Pulsar broker.\n\n   Here is an example of the Pulsar broker configuration.\n\n    ```yaml\n    messagingProtocols=mqtt\n    protocolHandlerDirectory=./protocols\n    brokerServicePort=6651\n    mqttListeners=mqtt://127.0.0.1:1883\n    advertisedAddress=127.0.0.1\n    \n    mqttProxyEnabled=true\n    mqttProxyPort=5682\n    ```\n\n### Verify MoP protocol handler\n\nThere are many MQTT client that can be used to verify the MoP protocol handler, such as [MQTTBox](http://workswithweb.com/mqttbox.html), [MQTT Toolbox](https://www.hivemq.com/mqtt-toolbox). You can choose a CLI tool or interface tool to verify the MoP protocol handler.\n\nThe following example shows how to verify the MoP protocol handler with FuseSource MqttClient.\n\n1. Add the dependency.\n\n    ```java\n    \u003cdependency\u003e\n        \u003cgroupId\u003eorg.fusesource.mqtt-client\u003c/groupId\u003e\n        \u003cartifactId\u003emqtt-client\u003c/artifactId\u003e\n        \u003cversion\u003e1.16\u003c/version\u003e\n    \u003c/dependency\u003e\n    ```\n\n2. Publish messages and consume messages.\n\n    ```java\n    MQTT mqtt = new MQTT();\n    mqtt.setHost(\"127.0.0.1\", 1883);\n    BlockingConnection connection = mqtt.blockingConnection();\n    connection.connect();\n    Topic[] topics = { new Topic(\"persistent://public/default/my-topic\", QoS.AT_LEAST_ONCE) };\n    connection.subscribe(topics);\n    \n    // publish message\n    connection.publish(\"persistent://public/default/my-topic\", \"Hello MOP!\".getBytes(), QoS.AT_LEAST_ONCE, false);\n    \n    // receive message\n    Message received = connection.receive();\n    ```\n## Security\n\n### Enabling Authentication\n\nMoP currently supports `basic` and `token` authentication methods. The `token` authentication method works\nwith any of the token based Pulsar authentication providers such as the built-in JWT provider and external token\nauthentication providers like [biscuit-pulsar](https://github.com/CleverCloud/biscuit-pulsar).\n\nTo use authentication for MQTT connections your Pulsar cluster must already have authentication enabled with your\nchosen authentication provider(s) configured.\n\nYou can then enable MQTT authentication with the following configuration properties:\n```yaml\nmqttAuthenticationEnabled=true\nmqttAuthenticationMethods=token\n```\n\n`mqttAuthenticationMethods` can be set to a comma delimited list if you wish to enable multiple authentication providers.\nMoP will attempt each in order when authenticating client connections.\n\nWith authentication enabled MoP will not allow anonymous connections currently.\n\n#### Authenticating client connections\n\n##### Basic Authentication\nSet the MQTT username and password client settings.\n\n##### Token Authentication\nSet the MQTT password to the token body, currently username will be disregarded but MUST be set to some value as this is required by the MQTT specification.\n\n\n### Enabling Authorization\n\nMoP currently supports authorization. When authorization enabled, MoP will check the authenticated role if it has the ability to pub/sub topics, eg:\nWhen sending messages, you need to have the produce permission of the topic. When subscribing to a topic, you need to have the consume permission of the topic.\nYou can reference [here](https://pulsar.apache.org/docs/en/security-authorization/) to grant permissions.\n\nYou can then enable MQTT authorization with the following configuration properties:\n```yaml\nmqttAuthorizationEnabled=true\n```\nIf MoP proxy enabled, following configuration needs to be configured and `brokerClientAuthenticationParameters` should configure `lookup` permission at least:\n```yaml\nbrokerClientAuthenticationPlugin=org.apache.pulsar.client.impl.auth.AuthenticationBasic\nbrokerClientAuthenticationParameters={\"userId\":\"superUser\",\"password\":\"superPass\"}\n```\n\n### Enabling TLS\n\nMoP currently supports TLS transport encryption.\n\nGenerate crt and key file :\n```\nopenssl genrsa 2048 \u003e server.key\nchmod 400 server.key\nopenssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha256 -days 365 -key server.key -out server.crt\n```\n\n#### TLS with broker\n\n1. Config mqtt broker to load tls config.\n   ```conf\n   mqttListeners=mqtt+ssl://127.0.0.1:8883\n   mqttTlsCertificateFilePath=/xxx/server.crt\n   mqttTlsKeyFilePath=/xxx/server.key\n   ```\n\n2. Config client to load tls config.\n   ```java\n   MQTT mqtt = new MQTT();\n   // default tls port\n   mqtt.setHost(URI.create(\"ssl://127.0.0.1:8883\")); \n   File crtFile = new File(\"server.crt\");\n   Certificate certificate = CertificateFactory.getInstance(\"X.509\").generateCertificate(new FileInputStream(crtFile));\n   KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());\n   keyStore.load(null, null);\n   keyStore.setCertificateEntry(\"server\", certificate);\n   TrustManagerFactory trustManagerFactory = TrustManagerFactory.getInstance(TrustManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm());\n   trustManagerFactory.init(keyStore);\n   SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance(\"TLS\");\n   sslContext.init(null, trustManagerFactory.getTrustManagers(), null);\n   mqtt.setSslContext(sslContext);\n   BlockingConnection connection = mqtt.blockingConnection();\n   connection.connect();\n   ```\n\n\n#### TLS with proxy\n\n1. Config mqtt broker to load tls config.\n   ```conf\n   mqttProxyEnable=true\n   mqttProxyTlsEnabled=true\n   mqttTlsCertificateFilePath=/xxx/server.crt\n   mqttTlsKeyFilePath=/xxx/server.key\n   ```\n\n2. Config client to load tls config.\n   ```java\n   MQTT mqtt = new MQTT();\n   // default proxy tls port\n   mqtt.setHost(URI.create(\"ssl://127.0.0.1:5683\")); \n   File crtFile = new File(\"server.crt\");\n   Certificate certificate = CertificateFactory.getInstance(\"X.509\").generateCertificate(new FileInputStream(crtFile));\n   KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());\n   keyStore.load(null, null);\n   keyStore.setCertificateEntry(\"server\", certificate);\n   TrustManagerFactory trustManagerFactory = TrustManagerFactory.getInstance(TrustManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm());\n   trustManagerFactory.init(keyStore);\n   SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance(\"TLS\");\n   sslContext.init(null, trustManagerFactory.getTrustManagers(), null);\n   mqtt.setSslContext(sslContext);\n   BlockingConnection connection = mqtt.blockingConnection();\n   connection.connect();\n   ```\n\n#### TLS PSK with broker\n\nPlease reference [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TLS-PSK) to learn more about TLS-PSK.\n\n1. Config mqtt broker to load tls psk config.\n   ```conf\n   mqttTlsPskEnabled=true\n   mqttListeners=mqtt+ssl+psk://127.0.0.1:8884\n   // any string can be specified\n   mqttTlsPskIdentityHint=alpha\n   // identity is semicolon list of string with identity:secret format\n   mqttTlsPskIdentity=mqtt:mqtt123\n   ```\n   Optional configs\n   \n   |       Config key       | Comment  |\n   |:----------------------:| -------- |\n   | mqttTlsPskIdentityFile | When you want identities in a single file with many pairs, you can config this. Identities will load from both `tlsPskIdentity` and `tlsPskIdentityFile`  |\n   |    mqttTlsProtocols    | TLS PSK protocols, default are [ TLSv1, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2 ]  |\n   |     mqttTlsCiphers     | TLS PSK ciphers, default are [ TLS_ECDHE_PSK_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256, TLS_ECDHE_PSK_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA, TLS_ECDHE_PSK_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA, TLS_PSK_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA, TLS_PSK_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA ] |\n\n2. As current known mqtt Java client does not support TLS-PSK, it's better to verify this by `mosquitto cli`\n   ```cli\n   # Default with tlsv1.2\n   mosquitto_pub --psk-identity mqtt --psk 6d717474313233 -p 8884 -t \"/a/b/c\" -m \"hello mqtt\"\n   \n   # Test with tlsv1.1\n   mosquitto_pub --psk-identity mqtt --psk 6d717474313233 -p 8884 -t \"/a/b/c\" -m \"hello mqtt\" --tls-version tlsv1.1\n   \n   # Test with tlsv1\n   mosquitto_pub --psk-identity mqtt --psk 6d717474313233 -p 8884 -t \"/a/b/c\" -m \"hello mqtt\" --tls-version tlsv1\n   ```\n- Download [mosquitto](https://mosquitto.org/download/) with Mac version.\n- The secret `mqtt123` is converted to `6d717474313233` using [Hex Code Converter](https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/ascii-to-hex.html)\n\n#### TLS PSK with proxy\n\n1. Config mqtt proxy to load tls psk config.\n   ```conf\n   mqttProxyEnable=true\n   mqttProxyTlsPskEnabled=true\n   // default tls psk port\n   mqttProxyTlsPskPort=5684\n   // any string can be specified\n   mqttTlsPskIdentityHint=alpha\n   // identity is semicolon list of string with identity:secret format\n   mqttTlsPskIdentity=mqtt:mqtt123\n   ```\n\n2. Test with `mosquitto cli`\n   ```\n   mosquitto_pub --psk-identity mqtt --psk 6d717474313233 -p 5684 -t \"/a/b/c\" -m \"hello mqtt\"\n   ```\n\n3. Add PSK identities dynamically.\n   \n   You can add psk identities dynamically by REST API in proxy mode.\n   ```\n   curl -X POST http://pulsar-broker-webservice-address:port/mop/add_psk_identity -d \"identity=mqtt2:mqtt222;mqtt3:mqtt333\"\n   ```\n\n## Topic Names \u0026 Filters\n\nFor Apache Pulsar, The topic name consists of 4 parts:\n\n```\n\u003cdomain\u003e://\u003ctenant\u003e/\u003cnamespace\u003e/\u003clocal-name\u003e\n```\nAnd `/` is not allowed in the local topic name. But for the MQTT topic name can have multiple levels such as:\n\n```\n/a/b/c/d/e/f\n```\n\nMoP mapping the MQTT topic name to Pulsar topic name as follows:\n\n1. If the MQTT topic name does not start with the topic domain, MoP treats the URL encoded MQTT topic name as the Pulsar local topic name, and the default tenant and default namespace will be used to map the Pulsar topic name.\n2. If the MQTT topic name starts with the topic domain, MoP will treat the first level topic name as the tenant and the second level topic name as the namespace and the remaining topic name levels will be covert as the local topic name with URL encoded.\n\nExamples:\n\n|  MQTT topic name   | Apache Pulsar topic name  |\n|  ----  | ----  |\n| /a/b/c  | persistent://public/default/%2Fa%2Fb%2Fc |\n| a  | persistent://public/default/a |\n| persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a/b/c  | persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a%2Fb%2Fc |\n| persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a  | persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a |\n| non-persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a  | non-persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a |\n| non-persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a/b/c  | non-persistent://my-tenant/my-ns/a%2Fb%2Fc |\n\nSo if you want to consume messages by Pulsar Client from the topic `/a/b/c`, the topic name for the Pulsar consumer should be `persistent://public/default/%2Fa%2Fb%2Fc`. If you want to consume messages from a Pulsar topic by the MQTT client, use the Pulsar topic name as the MQTT topic name directly.\n\nMoP topic supports single-level wildcard `+` and multi-level wildcard `#`. The topic name filter also follows the above topic name mapping rules.\n\n1. If the topic filter starts with the topic domain, MoP only filters the topic under the namespace that the topic filter provided.\n2. If the topic filter does not start with the topic domain, MoP only filters the topic name under the default namespace.\n\nExamples:\n\n|  MQTT topic name   | Topic filter  | Is match |\n|  ----  | ----  | ----  |\n| /a/b/c  | /a/+/c  | Yes |\n| /a/b/c  | /a/#  | Yes |\n| /a/b/c  | a/#  | No |\n| /a/b/c  | persistent://my-tenant/my-namespace//a/#  | No |\n| /a/b/c  | persistent://public/default//a/#  | Yes |\n| persistent://public/default/a/b/c  | persistent://public/default/a/#  | Yes |\n| persistent://public/default/a/b/c  | persistent://public/default/a/+/c  | Yes |\n| persistent://public/default/a/b/c  | persistent://public/default//a/+/c  | No |\n| persistent://public/default/a/b/c  | persistent://my-tenant/my-namespace/a/+/c  | No |\n\n\n\u003e Notice:\n\u003e\n\u003e The default tenant and the default namespace for the MoP are configurable, by default, the default tenant is `public` and the default namespace is `default`.\n\n\n## Metrics\n\nMoP will uniformly output its own metrics to Prometheus.\n\n| Name | Type | Description |\n|------|------|---------|\n| mop_active_client_count | Gauge | The active client count |\n| mop_total_client_count | Counter | The total client count |\n| mop_maximum_client_count | Counter | The maximum client count |\n| mop_sub_count | Gauge | The subscription count |\n| mop_send_count | Counter | The total send msg count |\n| mop_send_bytes | Counter | The total send msg in bytes |\n| mop_received_count| Counter | The total received msg count |\n| mop_received_bytes| Counter | The total received msg in bytes |\n\nMoP can also expose metrics through the http interface. Add below configs first and then restart pulsar broker.\n```\nadditionalServlets=mqtt-servlet\nadditionalServletDirectory=[protocolHandlerDir]\n```\nThen you can obtain mop information in json format through `/mop/stats`:\n```\ncurl http://pulsar-broker-webservice-address:port/mop/stats\n{\"cluster\":\"test\",\"subscriptions\":{\"subs\":[\"/a/b/c\"],\"count\":1},\"clients\":{\"total\":1,\"maximum\":1,\"active\":0,\"active_clients\":[]},\"namespace\":\"default\",\"messages\":{\"received_bytes\":57351,\"received_count\":10,\"send_count\":20,\"send_bytes\":60235},\"version\":\"2.9.0-SNAPSHOT\",\"tenant\":\"public\",\"uptime\":\"46 seconds\"}\n```\n\n## MoP available configurations\n\nPlease refer [here](docs/mop-configuration.md)\n\n## Using MQTT over WebSocket\n\nPlease refer [here](docs/using-mqtt-over-websocket.md)\n\n## MoP Features\n\nMoP currently support sending QoS0 and QoS1 message， for QoS2, it is not supported yet.\n\n### Supported MQTT5 Features\n\n| Feature                                    | Supported |\n|--------------------------------------------|-----------|\n| Custom Headers and User Properties         | true      |\n| Reason Codes and Negative Acknowledgements | false     |\n| Payload Format and Content Types           | true      |\n| Server Disconnect                          | true      |\n| Connect Options                            | true      |\n| Session Expiry                             | true      |\n| Message Expiry                             | true      |\n| Shared Subscriptions                       | false     |\n| Content Type Indication                    | true      |\n| Request / Response Pattern                 | false     |\n| Subscription Identifier                    | true      |\n| Topic Alias                                | true      |\n| Flow Control                               | false     |\n| Optional Server Feature Availability       | false     |\n| Enhanced Authentication Mechanisms         | true      |\n| Subscription Options                       | false     |\n| Will Delay                                 | true      |\n| Server Keep-Alive                          | true      |\n| Maximum Packet Size                        | true      |\n| Assigned Client Identifiers                | true      |\n| Server Reference                           | false     |\n\n\n## Project maintainers\n\n- [@Technoboy-](https://github.com/Technoboy-)\n- [@mattisonchao](https://github.com/mattisonchao)\n- [@codelipenghui](https://github.com/codelipenghui)\n\n## License\n\nThis library is licensed under the terms of the [Apache License 2.0](LICENSE) and may include packages written by third parties which carry their own copyright notices and license terms.\n\n### About StreamNative\n\nFounded in 2019 by the original creators of Apache Pulsar, [StreamNative](https://streamnative.io/) is one of the leading contributors to the open-source Apache Pulsar project.
