Publish a message to a topic (--mqtt_pub_topic)

To publish a message to an MQTT topic, use the following command:

 trustedge mqtt --mqtt_servername broker.hivemq.com --mqtt_pub_topic house/bulb1 --mqtt_pub_message "test message" --mqtt_port 1883

--mqtt_servername <servername> Specifies the MQTT broker to connect to. In this case, the broker is broker.hivemq.com.
--mqtt_pub_topic <topic> Defines the topic to which the message will be published. In this example, the topic is house/bulb1.
--mqtt_pub_message <message> The message that will be published to the topic specified by --mqtt_pub_topic. In this case, the message is "test message".
--mqtt_port <port> Specifies the network port used to connect to the MQTT broker. The port being used in this example is 1883, which is the default for MQTT over TCP.

Subscribe to a topic (--mqtt_sub_topic)

To subscribe to an MQTT topic, use the following command:

 trustedge mqtt --mqtt_servername broker.hivemq.com --mqtt_sub_topic house/bulb1 --mqtt_port 1883

After running the above command, trustedge enters a "listening" state and waits for messages to arrive on that topic.

--mqtt_servername <servername> Specifies the MQTT broker to connect to. In this case, the broker is broker.hivemq.com.
--mqtt_sub_topic <topic> Subscribes to the specified topic. In this example, the client will subscribe to the topic house/bulb1.
--mqtt_port <port> Specifies the network port used to connect to the MQTT broker. The port being used in this example is 1883, which is the default for MQTT over TCP.
