AWSCLI_Payload_Tester

##Part 1 AWS CLI using MQTT (no certs) to IoT Core (MQTT test client: Subscribe) ##

//check your current AWS IoT Core Region
//aws iot describe-endpoint --endpoint-type iot:Data-ATS

//By default, the AWS CLI version 2 now passes all binary input and binary output parameters as base64-encoded strings. A parameter that requires binary
//input has its type specified as blob (binary large object) in the documentation.

aws --region us-west-2 iot-data publish --topic "myTopic" --cli-binary-format raw-in-base64-out --payload "{\"uptime\": 123,\"temp\": 44,\"humidity\": 33}"

//If you want to encode your payload in base64 here is the equivalent payload from above encoded (using encoding online at https://www.base64encode.org/ )

aws --region us-west-2 iot-data publish --topic "myTopic" --payload IntcInVwdGltZVwiOiAxMjMsXCJ0ZW1wXCI6IDQ0LFwiaHVtaWRpdHlcIjogMzN9Ig==

//To upload a whole JSON file of sensor readings (your json file will be the path from your current working directory)

aws --region us-west-2 iot-data publish --topic "myTopic" --cli-binary-format raw-in-base64-out --payload file://sample-json-file.json

//To upload a whole JSON file of base64 encoded sensor readings (your json file will be the path from your current working directory)

aws --region us-west-2 iot-data publish --topic "myTopic" --output json --payload file://base64.json

//A test payload for the AWS IoT Core console
