Subscribe to different MQTT brokers and topics simultaneously, and soak up what they have to offer. msoak is documented in it's man page of which there is a version as PDF.
Launch msoak with the example configuration file:
$ msoak example.configThen publish a message:
mosquitto_pub -t tests/sponge/1 -m "$(jo name=Jane number=42)"you should see the payload as formatted by Lua. The word loc at start of output is the id of the connection as specified in example.config. (jo is a utility to easily produce JSON output in a shell, and it may well be available as a package for your system of choice.)
loc tests/sponge/1 Hello Jane -> now=18:12:50Z
To test msoak, you will need a source of MQTT test traffic, This could be a test server or a production server that you run, or one of the public test servers. The example configuration assumes that you have a test server running on localhost; edit this to suit.
In order to build msoak you will require:
