Machine Head, a Clojure MQTT Client

Machine Head is a Clojure MQTT client.

Project Goals

• Cover all (or nearly all) MQTT v3 features
• Be well documented
• Be well tested
• Provide a convenient API (Paho Java's API is poorly designed)
• Don't introduce a lot of latency and throughput overhead

Community

Machine Head has a mailing list. Feel free to join it and ask any questions you may have.

To subscribe for announcements of releases, important changes and so on, please follow @ClojureWerkz on Twitter.

Project Maturity

Machine Head is very young and not complete. However, the key functionality (connections, publishing, subscriptions) is supported. Barring the fact that documentation is work in progress, we encourage you to give the library a try.

The API for key operations may changes in the future, although this is fairly unlikely, given how small the library is.
