MQTTX CLI

I am using the --file-save option of MQTTX CLI and I want to see the full packet or at least the topic included with the saved file. How do I do that? Thanks.

Hi @jdonth ! As of now, I don't think there's a way to save the topic or full packet with the file, the --file-save functionality in cli/src/lib/sub.ts is implemented as

const receivedMessage = processReceivedMessage(payload, schemaOptions, format)
const savePath = fileSave ? createNextNumberedFileName(fileSave) : fileWrite
if (savePath) {
  fileSave && writeFile(savePath, receivedMessage)
  fileWrite && appendFile(savePath, receivedMessage, delimiter)
}

Only the payload is being saved when you pass in --file-save option. However, you can always use the --verbose or --output-mode clean and redirect the console output to a file.
