No error. Just fail..
I did some more reading and noticed that the library just drops the message. Then I felt a bit embarrassing to read from github page:
The maximum message size, including header, is 128 bytes by default. This is configurable via MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE in PubSubClient.h.
woops. Anyhow, ran into next problem. It didn't work even if I included this.
It was after the #include so of course wouldn't work but it didn't work the other way around either. Then I increased the value directly in the arduino library .h file. Then it works as I expected.
It is defined like this in the .h file. It was 128 but I have increased it.
Code: Select all// MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE : Maximum packet size
#ifndef MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE
#define MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE 328
#endif
Why it didn't work with the #define before #include?
The ESP is reading JSON from Arduino. Basically it is just message handler between Arduino and MQTT server. Any comments on my code appreciated!
Code: Select all#define MQTT_VERSION MQTT_VERSION_3_1_1
#define MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE 500
