Hello, I’m Eduardo from Argentina, I apologize in advance if I make mistakes writing, I don’t speak english very well.
I saw io.adafruit.com and I wanted to try setting up my own home server. I have 2 computers:
Server1: Apache, PHP and postgresql. LAN IP and ddns.
Server2: EMQX (emqtt.io). LAN IP and another ddns.
1) About EMQX User Authentication: it could be client id, user and passwd, mysql, postgresql, etc. I don’t know which one to choose. If I use the web server to provide user registration, Should I user postgresql ? or… Should I use just client id generated by user registration? Which one do you recommend me?
2) I didn’t saw the tutorial “Learn, How to save MQTT messages into a MySQL Database” yet because I don’t have the server well configured. Do I need to setup a db in Server2 or can I use the db from Server1 ?
3) EMQX has an api to publish/subscribe/etc. If I want to have in Server1 graphics and that stuff like adafruit, Do I need to have another web api in web server or just a simple page that use EMQX api to get the data?
4) This doubt depends on answer of 1 and 3, I want to each user only publish/subscribe to his own topic. Is that a EMQX configuration or if I use a web api is an api access control?
I think that’s all for now, if you have something else to recommend me, I will appreciate.
Thank you!
Eduardo.-
