mqttui(1) General Commands Manual mqttui(1) NAME mqttui - Subscribe to a MQTT Topic or publish something quickly from the terminal SYNOPSIS mqttui [--payload-size-limit] [-b|--broker] [-u|--username] [--password] [-i|--client-id] [--client-cert] [--client-key] [--insecure] [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [TOPIC] [subcommands] DESCRIPTION Subscribe to a MQTT Topic or publish something quickly from the terminal OPTIONS --payload-size-limit=PAYLOAD_SIZE_LIMIT [default: 8000] Truncate the payloads stored to the given size. Payloads bigger than that are truncated and not inspected for formats like JSON or MessagePack. Only their beginning up to the specified amount of bytes can be viewed. Increasing this value might result in higher memory consumption especially over time.
