I am pretty new to programming and GitHub. I was trying my best to find a solution in other forums, but there are very few topics about dynamic security. So I hope that I can find some help here. For my bachelor thesis I need to work with the dynamic security plug-in. I installed Mosquitto with homebrew and thought that I can use dynamic-security without any problems. To use the dynamic security plug in, I must change the Mosquitto.config-file and add the following two lines:

plugin path/to/mosquitto_dynamic_security.so
plugin_opt_config_file path/to/dynamic-security.json

The dynamic-security.json file is easy to find. But I just can't find the mosquitto_dynamic_security.so. I used several terminal-commands to find the file but I always get the response that this file doesn't exist. The documentation also doesn't include any information on the installation on MacOs devices.

  • Is it even possible to use this plug-in on macOS?

  • Was anyone able to use the dynamic security plugin in macOS successfully?

  • If so, where do I find mosquitto_dynamic_security.so-file?

  • Do I have to create it myself or is there something else I must consider before installing mosquitto with homebrew?

If anyone could give me hint, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

  • This is a question for homebrew, do they build mosquitto with the plugins enabled and if so where do they put it. But https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/mosquitto.rb implies they do not build the plugin. – hardillb Sep 03 '22 at 06:39
