Connect a client to IoT Platform by using the SDK for Go

Development environment

Go 1.12.7 is used in this example.

Download the SDK

You can run the following command to import AMQP SDK for Go:

import "pack.ag/amqp"

For more information about how to use the SDK, see package amqp.

Sample code

package main

import (
    "context"
    "crypto/hmac"
    "crypto/sha1"
    "encoding/base64"
    "fmt"
    "pack.ag/amqp"
    "time"
)
// The parameters. For more information, see the "Connect an AMQP client to IoT Platform" topic. 
const accessKey = "${YourAccessKey}"
const accessSecret = "${YourAccessSecret}"
const consumerGroupId = "${YourConsumerGroupId}"
const clientId = "${YourClientId}"
// iotInstanceId: the ID of the instance. 
const iotInstanceId = "${YourIotInstanceId}"
// The endpoint. For more information, see the "Connect an AMQP client to IoT Platform" topic. 
const host = "${YourHost}"

func main() {
    address := "amqps://" + host + ":5671"

    hmacKey := hmac.New(sha1.New, []byte(accessSecret))
    hmacKey.Write([]byte(stringToSign))
    // Calculates a signature. For more information about how to specify the password parameter, see the "Connect an AMQP client to IoT Platform" topic.

You can specify the parameters in the preceding code based on the parameter descriptions in the following table. For more information, see Connect an AMQP client to IoT Platform.

Sample results

• Sample success result: After you run the code, the following log data may be returned. The data indicates that the AMQP client is connected to IoT Platform and can receive messages.
• Sample failure result:

  You can check the code or network environment based on logs, solve the problem, and then run the code again.
