DESCRIPTION

A very simple consumer which can query one value of a given metric.

OPTIONS

[`-V`] \| [`--version`]	Print the version number and exit.
[`-a method`] \| [`--auth method`]	The authentication method to use. If not specified, the strongest method supported by both the producer and the consumer will be used.
[`-h`] \| [`--help`]	Print a short help message on parameters and usage.
[`-n metric`] \| [`--name metric`]	Specify the metric name to be queried. This option is mandatory.
[`-p name=value`] \| [`--param name=value`]	Specify metric parameters. Each occurance of this option adds a parameter to the list.
[`-t sec`] \| [`--timeout sec`]	Abort if a command does not complete within the specified time. If the value given is not positive, there will be no timeout (this is also the default).
`--timing`	Do a simple latency measurement. The result will be printed to stderr.
