<title>Description</title>
|
<para><command>mosquitto_rr</command> is an MQTT version 5/3.1.1
|
client that can be used to publish a request message and wait for a
|
response. When using MQTT v5, which is the default,
|
<command>mosquitto_rr</command> will use the Request-Response
|
feature.</para>
|
</refsect1>
|
|
<refsect1>
|
<title>Encrypted Connections</title>
|
<para><command>mosquitto_rr</command> supports TLS encrypted
|
connections. It is strongly recommended that you use an encrypted
|
connection for anything more than the most basic setup.</para>
|
<para>To enable TLS connections when using x509 certificates, one of
|
either <option>--cafile</option> or <option>--capath</option> must
|
be provided as an option.</para>
|
<para>To enable TLS connections when using TLS-PSK, you must use the
|
<option>--psk</option> and the <option>--psk-identity</option>
|
options.</para>
|
</refsect1>
|
|
<refsect1>
|
<title>Options</title>
|
<para>The options below may be given on the command line, but may also
|
be placed in a config file located at
|
<option>$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mosquitto_rr</option> or
|
<option>$HOME/.config/mosquitto_rr</option> with one pair of
|
<option>-option <replaceable>value</replaceable></option>
|
per line. The values in the config file will be used as defaults
|
and can be overridden by using the command line. The exceptions to
|
this is <option>-t</option>, which if given in the config file will
|
not be overridden. Note also that currently some options cannot be
|
negated, e.g. <option>-S</option>. Config file lines that have a
|
<option>#</option> as the first character are treated as comments
|
and not processed any further.</para>

<title>Output format</title>
|
<para>There are three ways of formatting the output from mosquitto_rr.
|
In all cases a new-line character is appended for each message
|
received unless the <option>-N</option> argument is passed to
|
mosquitto_rr.</para>
|
<para>Payload-only is the default output format and will
|
print the payload exactly as it is received.</para>
|
<para>Verbose mode is activated with <option>-v</option> and prints the
|
message topic and the payload, separated by a space.</para>
|
<para>The final option is formatted output, which allows the user to
|
define a custom output format. The behaviour is controlled with
|
the <option>-F format-string</option> option. The format string is
|
a free text string where interpreted sequences are replaced by
|
different parameters. The available interpreted sequences are
|
described below.</para>
|
<para>Three characters are used to start an interpreted sequence:
|
<option>%</option>, <option>@</option> and <option>\</option>.
|
Sequences starting with <option>%</option> are either parameters
|
related to the MQTT message being printed, or are helper sequences
|
to avoid the need to type long date format strings for example.
|
Sequences starting with <option>@</option> are passed to the
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>strftime</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
function (with the @ replaced with a % - note that only the
|
character immediately after the @ is passed to strftime). This
|
allows the construction of a wide variety of time based outputs.
|
The output options for strftime vary from platform to platform, so
|
please check what is available for your platform. mosquitto_rr
|
does provide one extension to strftime which is
|
<option>@N</option>, which can be used to obtain the number of
|
nanoseconds passed in the current second. The resolution of this
|
option varies depending on the platform. The final sequence
|
character is <option>\</option>, which is used to input some
|
characters that would otherwise be difficult to enter.</para>
