Reconnect after lost connection about esp-mqtt HOT 6 CLOSED

Reconnection is built in. A connection attempt is made every second. What broker are you using?

from esp-mqtt.

I'm currently use mosquitto. will switch over to a cloud service sometime in the next month or so.

So does that mean I should not call a re-start on lost-connection callback?

Yes. The following example illustrates the correct usage: https://github.com/256dpi/esp-mqtt/blob/master/test/main/main.c.

Ok - is there a hook/attribute somewhere in the code that would help me figure out why I'm getting the occasional disconnect?

fyi - haven't had that much experience with the library yet but I really appreciate the ease which it can be integrated into esp32. thanks

Not at the moment. I would recommend to add some ESP_LOG calls in the checked out source code and reset the repository once you are done. ✌️

I have to say, in my experience the esp32 has not the most stable wifi connection. I usually also see some disconnects in my projects. Possibly the upcoming v3 release of esp-idf will also fixe some underlying bugs.

Ok, I will add some debug stuff.

On the esp32, I agree on the instability although I've been using latest version for awhile and it seems much more stable. While I seem to be losing the mqtt connection occasionally, my wifi does not seem to be dropping out which is why I'm focused on the broker at the moment. I may just switch to a cloud broker and see if the instability continues.
