Command put

put adds messages to a destination. Each message is represented by a simple format in the form <properties>\tbody, where properties are a simple json-encoded array, separated by a tab from the body. Messages can be passed by stdin or a file.

Syntax

pput <target> [options] (short for plunger <target> -C put [options])

Example

Simple message with and without a property

$ echo -e "{}\tHello world!" | pput target
$ echo -e "{\"myproperty\":\"sample\"}\tHello\nworld!" | pput target

Time to live

You can define the time the message is kept by the messaging-server. The ttl is written in a human readable syntax, where the amount and unit of time are written as pair. Units are:

• ms = milliseconds
• s = seconds
• m = minutes
• h = hours
• d = days

Examples

$ pput target -t "1m" # TTL 1 minute
$ pput target -t "2h 5m 10s" # TTL 2 hours, 5 minutes and 10 seconds
