MQTT connection

Hi, I followed provided docs , but mosquitto_sub -h localhost -v -t "#" doesn't print mpp-solar -q localhost -c QID . (It works with mosquitto_pub -h localhost -t "basetopic/subtopic" -m "this is the message" ).

This is the CMD2 output:

Any suggestions?

you'll need to supply a mqtt type output processor
add -o to the command to see a list, use -q screen with a mqtt type output to show the format of the messages and -q with the broker address to send
eg list mpp-solar -o
display mpp-solar -q screen -c QID -o mqtt
send mpp-solar -q localhost -c QID -o mqtt

Thank you! Now grafana is getting data :D
