Get subscription relationship from MySQL

Set up the MySQL database and set the user name and password to root/public. Take MacOS X as an example:

$ brew install mysql

$ brew services start mysql

$ mysql -u root -h localhost -p

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'public';

Initialize the MySQL database:

$ mysql -u root -h localhost -ppublic

create database mqtt;

Create the mqtt_sub table:

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `mqtt_sub`;

CREATE TABLE `mqtt_sub` (
  `id` bigint unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `clientid` varchar(64) DEFAULT NULL,
  `topic` varchar(180) DEFAULT NULL,
  `qos` tinyint(1) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  KEY `mqtt_sub_idx` (`clientid`,`topic`,`qos`),
  UNIQUE KEY `mqtt_sub_key` (`clientid`,`topic`),
  INDEX topic_index(`topic`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8MB4;
