Shows how to use M2Mqtt library with Azure IoT measuring a BMP280 sensor. This leverages the nanoFramework.IoT.Device repository.
The sample is located here.
An hardware device with networking capabilities running a nanoFramework image. This code has been tested with ESP32 boards. Note that there is a specific section to enable serial port logging. This can be replaced by any other board with networking capabilities.
The sample uses wifi, this part can be as well replaced with an ethernet connection. It will work the exact same way.
Important
In this sample, if the connection or something is not setup properly you won't be able to debug properly. Please make sure you are using another sample to understand how Azure Client with a sample and deep sleep is working before using this one.
- nanoFramework.IoT.Device Bmxx80 devices.
- Azure IoT documentation for MQTT.
- nanoFramework Network helpers.
- More elements about Azure MQTT connection for nanoFramework.
- Simply adjust the device IoT Hub elements and your network.
- Start Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 or Visual Studio 2019 (Visual Studio 2017 should be OK too) and select
File > Open > Project/Solution
. - Starting in the folder where you unzipped the samples/cloned the repository, go to the subfolder for this specific sample. Double-click the Visual Studio Solution (.sln) file.
- Press
Ctrl+Shift+B
, or selectBuild > Build Solution
.
The next steps depend on whether you just want to deploy the sample or you want to both deploy and run it.
- Select
Build > Deploy Solution
.
- To debug the sample and then run it, press F5 or select
Debug > Start Debugging
.
Important: You can debug this sample only for one cycle as the device will very quickly go to sleep. If you want to debug, comment the part where it goes to sleep and replace with and infinite thread sleep timeout or a loop to once of the previous part of the code.
Note
Important: Before deploying or running the sample, please make sure your device is visible in the Device Explorer.
Tip: To display the Device Explorer, go to Visual Studio menus: View > Other Windows > Device Explorer
