<title>Description</title>
<para><command>mosquitto_pub</command> is a simple MQTT version 5/3.1.1
client that will publish a single message on a topic and
exit.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Encrypted Connections</title>
<para><command>mosquitto_pub</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>$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mosquitto_pub</option> or
<option>$HOME/.config/mosquitto_sub</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 are the message type options, of which only one can be
specified. 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>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-A</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Bind the outgoing connection to a local ip
address/hostname. Use this argument if you need to
restrict network communication to a particular
interface.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-c</option></term>
<term><option>--disable-clean-session</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Disable the 'clean session' flag. This means that all
of the subscriptions for the client will be maintained
after it disconnects, along with subsequent QoS 1 and QoS 2
messages that arrive. When the client reconnects, it will
receive all of the queued messages.</para>
<para>If using this option, the client id must be set
manually with <option>--id</option></para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

<listitem>
<para>Define the path to a file containing PEM encoded CA

communication.</para>
<para>See also <option>--capath</option></para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--capath</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Define the path to a directory containing PEM encoded CA
certificates that are trusted. Used to enable SSL
communication.</para>
<para>For <option>--capath</option> to work correctly, the
certificate files must have ".crt" as the file ending
and you must run "openssl rehash <path to capath>" each
time you add/remove a certificate.</para>
<para>See also <option>--cafile</option></para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--cert</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Define the path to a file containing a PEM encoded

server.</para>
<para>See also <option>--key</option>.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--ciphers</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>An openssl compatible list of TLS ciphers to support
in the client. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>ciphers</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-D</option></term>
<term><option>--property</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Use an MQTT v5 property with this publish. If you use
this option, the client will be set to be an MQTT v5
client. This option has two forms:</para>
<para><option>-D command identifier value</option></para>
<para><option>-D command identifier name value</option></para>
<para><option>command</option> is the MQTT command/packet
identifier and can be one of CONNECT, PUBLISH, PUBREL,
DISCONNECT, AUTH, or WILL. The properties available for
each command are listed in the
<link linkend='properties'>Properties</link>
section.</para>
<para><option>identifier</option> is the name of the
property to add. This is as described in the
specification, but with '-' as a word separator. For
example:
<option>payload-format-indicator</option>. More details
are in the <link linkend='properties'>Properties</link>
section.</para>
<para><option>value</option> is the value of the property
to add, with a data type that is property
specific.</para>
<para><option>name</option> is only used for the
<option>user-property</option> property as the first of
the two strings in the string pair. In that case,
<option>value</option> is the second of the strings in
the pair.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-f</option></term>
<term><option>--file</option></term>

<para>Specify the host to connect to. Defaults to localhost.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-i</option></term>
<term><option>--id</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>The id to use for this client. If not given, defaults
to mosquitto_pub_ appended with the process id of the
client. Cannot be used at the same time as the
<option>--id-prefix</option> argument.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-I</option></term>
<term><option>--id-prefix</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Provide a prefix that the client id will be built
from by appending the process id of the client. This is
useful where the broker is using the clientid_prefixes
option. Cannot be used at the same time as the
<option>--id</option> argument.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--insecure</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>When using certificate based encryption, this option
disables verification of the server hostname in the
server certificate. This can be useful when testing
initial server configurations but makes it possible for
a malicious third party to impersonate your server
through DNS spoofing, for example. Use this option in
testing <emphasis>only</emphasis>. If you need to
resort to using this option in a production
environment, your setup is at fault and there is no
point using encryption.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-k</option></term>
<term><option>--keepalive</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>The number of seconds between sending PING commands
