/*
 Long message ESP8266 MQTT example

 This sketch demonstrates sending arbitrarily large messages in combination
 with the ESP8266 board/library.

 It connects to an MQTT server then:
  - publishes "hello world" to the topic "outTopic"
  - subscribes to the topic "greenBottles/#", printing out any messages
    it receives. NB - it assumes the received payloads are strings not binary
  - If the sub-topic is a number, it publishes a "greenBottles/lyrics" message
    with a payload consisting of the lyrics to "10 green bottles", replacing
    10 with the number given in the sub-topic.

 It will reconnect to the server if the connection is lost using a blocking
 reconnect function. See the 'mqtt_reconnect_nonblocking' example for how to
 achieve the same result without blocking the main loop.

 To install the ESP8266 board, (using Arduino 1.6.4+):
  - Add the following 3rd party board manager under "File -> Preferences -> Additional Boards Manager URLs":
       http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json
  - Open the "Tools -> Board -> Board Manager" and click install for the ESP8266"
  - Select your ESP8266 in "Tools -> Board"
