SubscribeOptionsBuilder

The SubscribeOptionsBuilder class provides a fluent API for constructing SubscribeOptions instances in the HiveMQ MQTT client. It allows you to define topic subscriptions, user properties, and handlers in a structured way.

Constructor

SubscribeOptionsBuilder()

Initializes a new instance of the SubscribeOptionsBuilder class.

SubscribeOptionsBuilder();

Example:

var builder = new SubscribeOptionsBuilder();

Methods

WithSubscription(string topic, QualityOfService qos, bool? noLocal = null, bool? retainAsPublished = null, RetainHandling? retainHandling = RetainHandling.SendAtSubscribe, EventHandler? messageReceivedHandler = null)

Adds a subscription with detailed options.

SubscribeOptionsBuilder WithSubscription(
    string topic,
    QualityOfService qos,
    bool? noLocal = null,
    bool? retainAsPublished = null,
    RetainHandling? retainHandling = RetainHandling.SendAtSubscribe,
    EventHandler<OnMessageReceivedEventArgs>? messageReceivedHandler = null
);

Parameters:

topic (string): The topic name.
qos (QualityOfService): The QoS level.
noLocal (bool?): Indicates whether this client receives messages it publishes.
retainAsPublished (bool?): Determines if the retain flag remains as published.
retainHandling (RetainHandling?): Defines how retained messages are handled.
messageReceivedHandler (EventHandler?): A handler for messages received on this subscription.

Example:

builder.WithSubscription(
    "home/sensors/temperature",
    QualityOfService.AtLeastOnce,
    noLocal: true,
    retainAsPublished: false,
    retainHandling: RetainHandling.DoNotSendOnSubscribe,
    messageReceivedHandler: (sender, args) =>
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Received message: {args.Message.PayloadAsString}");
    });

WithSubscription(TopicFilter topicFilter, EventHandler? handler = null)

Adds a subscription using a TopicFilter.

SubscribeOptionsBuilder WithSubscription(TopicFilter topicFilter, EventHandler<OnMessageReceivedEventArgs>? handler = null);

Parameters:

topicFilter (TopicFilter): The topic filter for the subscription.
handler (EventHandler?): A message handler for the subscription.

Example:

builder.WithSubscription(
    new TopicFilter("home/sensors/humidity", QualityOfService.ExactlyOnce),
    (sender, args) =>
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Humidity: {args.Message.PayloadAsString}");
    });

WithSubscriptions(IEnumerable topicFilters)

Adds multiple subscriptions using a list of TopicFilter objects.

SubscribeOptionsBuilder WithSubscriptions(IEnumerable<TopicFilter> topicFilters);

Parameters:

topicFilters (IEnumerable): A collection of topic filters.

Example:

builder.WithSubscriptions(new List<TopicFilter>
{
    new TopicFilter("home/sensors/temperature", QualityOfService.AtLeastOnce),
    new TopicFilter("home/sensors/humidity", QualityOfService.AtMostOnce)
});

WithUserProperty(string key, string value)

Adds a single user property.

SubscribeOptionsBuilder WithUserProperty(string key, string value);

Parameters:

key (string): The key of the user property.
value (string): The value of the user property.

Example:

builder.WithUserProperty("key", "value");

WithUserProperties(Dictionary<string, string> userProperties)

Adds multiple user properties.

SubscribeOptionsBuilder WithUserProperties(Dictionary<string, string> userProperties);

Parameters:

userProperties (Dictionary<string, string>): A dictionary of key-value pairs.

Example:

builder.WithUserProperties(new Dictionary<string, string>
{
    { "key1", "value1" },
    { "key2", "value2" }
});

Build()

Builds the SubscribeOptions object based on the provided settings.

SubscribeOptions Build();

Description:
Constructs the SubscribeOptions instance and validates the configuration.

Example:

var options = builder
    .WithSubscription("home/sensors/temperature", QualityOfService.AtLeastOnce)
    .WithUserProperty("key", "value")
    .Build();

options.Validate();
