@dimisjim Thanks for submitting this feature 👍
I expect existing users could benefit from this, but would also appreciate the option of retaining the existing behavior.
In addition, it would be useful if you could adjust the documentation to take into account any new option.

This changes the default behavior which currently exists; is there a reason for this?

I've removed the default value via: 4de0952
Is my assumption correct that it will now fallback to data.feed.title or feed_url if no --topic arg is specified?

While this change sets the topic, this doesn't preserve the existing behavior, when a fixed topic is not specified.

Maybe specify an example topic containing spaces, e.g. --topic="topic name", since that's more typical naming style.

I would expect feed_url to often be too long; do we want to clamp too long topics here in the client code?

not sure what your suggestion is here really.
data.feed.title or feed_url was already here before my PR
