Updated the unit file examples to add a dependency on the network-online.target systemd target to prevent mosquitto from starting without network connectivity. Added a documentation line to the unit files pointing to mosquitto manpages. Signed-off-by: Rich Mattes <richmattes@gmail.com>
Eclipse Mosquitto
Mosquitto is an open source implementation of a server for version 3.1 and
3.1.1 of the MQTT protocol. It also includes a C and C++ client library, and
the mosquitto_pub and mosquitto_sub utilities for publishing and
subscribing.

There is also a public test server available at http://test.mosquitto.org/
Installing
See http://mosquitto.org/download/ for details on installing binaries for various platforms.
Quick start
If you have installed a binary package the broker should have been started automatically. If not, it can be started with a basic configuration:
mosquitto
Then use mosquitto_sub to subscribe to a topic:
mosquitto_sub -t 'test/topic' -v
And to publish a message:
mosquitto_pub -t 'test/topic' -m 'hello world'
Documentation
Documentation for the broker, clients and client library API can be found in
the man pages, which are available online at http://mosquitto.org/man/. There
are also pages with an introduction to the features of MQTT, the
mosquitto_passwd utility for dealing with username/passwords, and a
description of the configuration file options available for the broker.
Detailed client library API documentation can be found at http://mosquitto.org/api/
Building from source
To build from source the recommended route for end users is to download the archive from http://mosquitto.org/download/.
On Windows and Mac, use cmake to build. On other platforms, just run make
to build. For Windows, see also readme-windows.md.
If you are building from the git repository then the documentation will not
already be built. Use make binary to skip building the man pages, or install
docbook-xsl on Debian/Ubuntu systems.
Build Dependencies
- c-ares (libc-ares-dev on Debian based systems) - disable with
make WITH_SRV=no - libuuid (uuid-dev) - disable with
make WITH_UUID=no - libwebsockets (libwebsockets-dev) - enable with
make WITH_WEBSOCKETS=yes - openssl (libssl-dev on Debian based systems) - disable with
make WITH_TLS=no - xsltproc (xsltproc and docbook-xsl on Debian based systems) - only needed when building from git sources - disable with
make WITH_DOCS=no
