Subscribe Flow

In this section the subscription flow is described. VerneMQ provides several hooks to intercept the subscription flow. The most important ones are the auth_on_subscribe and auth_on_subscribe_m5 hooks which act as an application level firewall granting or rejecting subscribe requests.

auth_on_subscribe and auth_on_subscribe_m5

The auth_on_subscribe and auth_on_subscribe_m5 hooks allow your plugin to grant or reject subscribe requests sent by a client. They also makes it possible to rewrite the subscribe topic and qos. The auth_on_subscribe hook is specified in the Erlang behaviour auth_on_subscribe_hook and the auth_on_subscribe hook in the auth_on_subscribe_m5_hook behaviour available in the vernemq_dev repo.

on_subscribe and on_subscribe_m5

on_unsubscribe and on_unsubscribe_m5
