Very simple MQTT implementation
Synopsis
mqtt-simple -h mqtt.example.org -c -s "sensors/#" -s "debug/#" -s "#" mqtt-simple -h mqtt.example.org -p "example/unretained" -m "message" mqtt-simple -h mqtt.example.org -r -p "example/retained" -m "message" tail -f logfile | mqtt-simple -h mqtt.example.org -p "log/example" mqtt-simple --ssl --insecure ... mqtt-simple --ssl --ca ca.crt --cert client.crt --key client.key
Description
This is just a simple utility program. It doesn't do much. Specifically, all the QoS features are unsupported. Also, don't expect fancy error messages and such :-)
Command Line Options
- -h --host
MQTT server to connect to, required.
- -p --publish topic
Publish a message. Uses the message given with
-m
, or will read lines from stdin, and publish a message for each given line.- -m --message message
Message to publish. Requires
-p
.- -r --retain
Causes messages published with
-p
to have the "retain" flag on.- -s --subscribe filter
Subscribe to the given topic filter. Use the standard MQTT wildcards like
+
and#
. Outputs matching published messages on stdout. Can be given multiple times.- -e --except filter
Suppress published messages that match filter. Can be given multiple times.
- --count number
Quit after receiving number messages.
- --message-only
Output only the message values, without the topics.
- -1 --one
Shortcut for
--count 1 --message-only
.- --color
- --no-color
For each given
-s
, print the matching topic in a different color. Note that the first matching topic will be used for color selection, so specify the topics with the most specific one first, the least specific one (like#
) last.Color is enabled by default if stdout is a terminal.
- --raw
Pass ASCII control characters unaltered. By default, they're replaced by
^@
notation or, when--color
is enabled, reverse video characters. For example, an ASCII newline would be displayed as^J
unless--raw
is used.- -d --datetime format
Prefix messages with a timestamp. Optionally, a format for
strftime
can be supplied.- -u --user --username username
Specify a username. Overrides the environment variable
MQTT_SIMPLE_USERNAME
.- --pass --password password
Specify a password. Overrides the environment variable
MQTT_SIMPLE_PASSWORD
.

- --ssl
Use SSL instead of unencrypted connection.
- --insecure
Disable SSL certificate validation and enable clear text passwords. Useful for testing, bad idea in production.
Overrides the environment variables
MQTT_SIMPLE_SSL_INSECURE
andMQTT_SIMPLE_ALLOW_INSECURE_LOGIN
.- --ca path
The Certificate Authority to validate against. path can be a file or a directory. If unspecified, IO::Socket::SSL attempts to use the system wide CA configuration.
Overrides the environment variable
MQTT_SIMPLE_SSL_CA
.- --cert path
- --key path
A client certificate with its key.
Override the environment variables
