# Python MQTT Simulation 🕸️
This repository contains a Python-based MQTT simulation tool designed to test and experiment with the MQTT protocol. Whether you're working on IoT projects or exploring publish-subscribe messaging patterns, this simulation provides a flexible and reliable environment.
---
## 🎯 Features
- **Publish/Subscribe Simulation:** Mimics real-world MQTT messaging flows.
- **Customizable Topics:** Create, subscribe, and publish to custom MQTT topics.
- **Broker Interaction:** Seamlessly integrates with popular brokers like Mosquitto or HiveMQ.
- **Asynchronous Operations:** Leverages `asyncio` for efficient message handling.
- **Extensibility:** Easily adapt the codebase for your specific needs.
---
## ⚡ Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/LazyDoomSlayer/python-mqtt-simulation
cd python-mqtt-simulation
```
2. Install the required Python dependencies:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
3. Run the simulation script:
```bash
python mqtt_simulation.py
```
---
## 🔧 Configuration
- Modify the **broker settings**, topic names, and payloads in the script to fit your use case.
- Example customization areas:
- **Broker URL:** Update with your MQTT broker address.
- **Topics:** Define your topics for publish/subscribe operations.
- **QoS Levels:** Adjust the quality of service (QoS) settings as needed.
---
## 🌟 Use Cases
- **IoT Development:** Test and debug IoT devices using an MQTT broker.
- **Protocol Learning:** Understand how MQTT messaging works in practice.
- **Network Testing:** Simulate real-time messaging in controlled environments.
---
## 🛠️ Requirements
- **Python 3.8 or higher**
- **paho-mqtt library** (included in `requirements.txt`)
- An MQTT broker for testing (e.g., [Mosquitto](https://mosquitto.org), [HiveMQ](https://www.hivemq.com)).
