Receive Meshblu Messages

Meshblu XMPP uses a special link in order to send the device its Meshblu messages. By connecting to the XMPP server, the device is automatically connected to the Firehose.

When a message is received, it looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <message xmlns:stream="http://etherx.jabber.org/streams" to="2710c086-bccd-4cfa-bcc0-1a21b655d34c@meshblu.octoblu.com" from="meshblu.octoblu.com" type="normal"> <metadata> <route> <hop to="2710c086-bccd-4cfa-bcc0-1a21b655d34c" from="c58b8033-8281-4e1d-af3e-a4ecbf09b369" type="broadcast.sent" /> <hop to="2710c086-bccd-4cfa-bcc0-1a21b655d34c" from="c58b8033-8281-4e1d-af3e-a4ecbf09b369" type="broadcast.received" /> <hop to="2710c086-bccd-4cfa-bcc0-1a21b655d34c" from="2710c086-bccd-4cfa-bcc0-1a21b655d34c" type="broadcast.received" /> </route> </metadata> <raw-data>{"devices":["*"],"payload":"howdy"}</raw-data> </message>

See the Firehose documentation for more information on what the metadata means.
