Introduction

vertxbuspp is a C++11 Vert.x 3.x event bus client using websocket only transport and consisting of two files (VertxBus header and source) plus lightweight main dependencies (Websocketpp, ASIO and JsonCPP).

Using vertxbuspp

• Copy the content of vertxbuspp: VertxBus.h, VertxBus.cpp and the folders asio, websocketpp and json to your project.
• Add asio/include, websocket and json to your include dirs and compile jsoncpp.cpp and VertxBus.cpp.
• Check the examples to open a connection and communicate with your Vert.x server.
• You can build the examples with cmake plus your favourite compiler and test them with vertx run Server.java.

Using vertxbuspp with TLS support

• Link with libssl/OpenSSL.
• Add VERTXBUSPP_TLS to your preprocessor definitions.
• The example ssl_tls can be added to the cmake build with SSL_EXAMPLE=ON (on Windows, don't forget to copy your OpenSSJL DLLs to avoid an Ordinal 313 error).

Dependencies

• Windows / Visual Studio : rpcrt4.lib (already pragma'ed).
• Windows / Cygwin : libuuid, pthread
• Linux : libuuid, pthread
• MacOSX : pthread
• Add OpenSSL to your dependencies if using TLS support.

Notes

ASIO and JsonCPP have been patched to ensure a compatibility with Cygwin.
The examples have been tested on Windows (Visual Studio 2013, Cygwin), Linux and MacOSX.
