Send

Synopsis

send [OPTIONS] EVENT-SPEC [DESTINATION-URI]

Description

Send an event constructed according to EVENT-SPEC to listeners on scopes specified by DESTINATION-URI.

EVENT-SPEC is treated as follows:

• As string when surrounded with double-quotes (")
• As integer number when consisting of digits without decimal point
• As float number when consisting of digits with decimal point
• If EVENT-SPEC is the single character -, the entire “contents” of standard input (until end of file) is read as a string and used as argument for the method send

DESTINATION-URI designates the destination scope to which the event should be sent and the transport configuration which should be used for sending the event.
