I’m new to PAHO MQTT Client functions and subscribing to topics. From experience in Thonny it it appears to be an asynchronous environment with the processing done in the ‘on_message’ function.
I’m looking for best practices on what to do once a payload is read and processed. I’m going to have additional processing to do and I’m wondering if I should pass the payload off to a spawn program or writing to a monitored file.
Thanks
If your extra processing requires more than a small amount of time, it would be best to pass the message to another process/thread so that the on_message callback can return and hence allow the network loop to continue.
Apart from that, I would say that the specifics of how to do it really depends on what you’re happiest with.

I develop applications in BASIC language using Mosquitto_Pub and Mosquitto_Sub.
I would like my applications to display errors occuring when executing Mosquitto_Pub and Mosquitto_Sub.
How can I do that ?
