I was trying to find a way to connect logstash input to mqtt…
I didn’t want to code a ruby plugin, as I don’t know ruby… then I saw logstash’s websocket input… googled “mqtt mosquitto websocket”… humm seems simple but no in fact it’s not so simple 😉
So I’ve managed to make it working with apache-websocket plus mod_websocket_mosquitto
Also, besides iptables considerations (open 1883/80/443 ports), I’ve had to allow httpd to connect to network, as I have selinux enabled centos :
[ user@host ] setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1
The final solution (mod_websocket_mosquitto) was found on Digits Domotica Blog
