[paho-dev] Lua client work items

[Ian Craggs <icraggs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Kevin,

I think the the library name ought to be "paho_mqtt" or some variant 
that includes "paho".  Other potential implementation of mqtt could 
coexist then, and it this will also make it (reasonably) obvious where 
the library comes from.

I'll create a bug for the task of bringing the Lua client up to the 
functionality of the other clients.  I don't think tasks 2 and 3 are big 
enough to need a bug - unless you think otherwise.

Hi Ian,

I have 4 in mind:

     1. Review my last patch
     2. Rename library to "mqtt"
     3. Provide a rock for it
     4. Make it "Paho 1.0" worthy

More details?

*2.* As I am writing to use the library you write

     local mqtt = require 'mqtt_library'

As it is only one Lua MQTT client, I think it should be:

    local mqtt = require 'mqtt'

*3.* Being available from package manager will bring more visibility
to the library

*4.* Lua's small footprint is very suitable for constrained devices, I
think it would be nice to reach Paho Major Library level
