MQTT Simulator

The technical documentation of the iotsensorsmqtt microservice, which simulates sensors sending data to the MQTT broker.

This microservice is a community contribution and is not part of the main stack of the United Manufacturing Hub, but is enabled by default.

The IoTSensors MQTT Simulator is a microservice that simulates sensors sending data to the MQTT broker. You can read the full documentation on the

GitHub repository .

How it works

The microservice publishes messages on the topic ia/raw/development/ioTSensors/, creating a subtopic for each simulation. The subtopics are the names of the simulations, which are Temperature, Humidity, and Pressure. The values are calculated using a normal distribution with a mean and standard deviation that can be configured.

Kubernetes resources

  • Deployment: united-manufacturing-hub-iotsensorsmqtt
  • ConfigMap: united-manufacturing-hub-iotsensors-mqtt

Configuration

You can change the configuration of the microservice by updating the config.json file in the ConfigMap.
