# Raw MQTT to Azure IoT Hub (in Python) without device SDK

![MQTT logotype](mqtt.png)

A simulated device that implements cloud-to-device and device-to-cloud messaging as well as direct methods over MQTT without using the Azure IoT Device SDK.

This project is using Paho to talk MQTT to Azure IoT Hub.

# WARNING

EVERYTHING HERE IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL.

## Generate the SAS token with azure-cli

First, install the Azure IoT extension: https://github.com/azure/azure-iot-cli-extension#installation

Then generate the SAS key:

```

az iot hub generate-sas-token \

    --hub-name YOUR_IOT_HUB_NAME \

    --device-id YOUR_DEVICE_ID \

    --key-type primary \

    --duration 3600 \

    --output tsv

```

Place the SAS key into a file named `sas.token`.

You'll most probably want a virtual environment first -

https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html

Target Python 3.6+.

Run the thing (activate the venv first if using one):

```

$ python run.py

```

## Send cloud to device message

```

az iot device c2d-message send \

    --hub-name poorlyfundedskynet \

    --device-id yolo --data \

    '{"hey device": "this is a cloud to device message"}'

```

## Invoke direct method

```

az iot hub invoke-device-method \

    --hub-name poorlyfundedskynet \

    --device-id yolo \

    --method-name hey \

    --method-payload '{"hey device": "this is a direct method invocation"}'

```

## KNOWN ISSUES

> _Hey, Python is caveman simple, you should rewrite this in C, the language real people use for IoT._
