#RabbitMQ Tutorial Sample Application

This project implements each of the 6 RabbitMQ Tutorials using Spring AMQP.

It is a CLI app that uses Spring Profiles to control its behavior. Each tutorial is a trio of classes: sender, receiver, and configuration.

##Usage

The app uses Spring Profiles to control what tutorial it's running, and if it's a Sender or Receiver. Choose which tutorial to run by using these profiles:

• {tut1|hello-world},{sender|receiver}
• {tut2|work-queues},{sender|receiver}
• {tut3|pub-sub|publish-subscribe},{sender|receiver}
• {tut4|routing},{sender|receiver}
• {tut5|topics},{sender|receiver}
• {tut6|rpc},{client|server}

After building with maven, run the app however you like to run boot apps.

For example:

java -jar rabbitmq-tutorials.jar --spring.profiles.active=work-queues,sender

For tutorials 1-5, run the Receiver followed by the Sender.

For tutorial 6, run the Server followed by the Client.

##Configuration

When running receivers/servers it's useful to set the duration the app runs to a longer time. Do this by setting the tutorial.client.duration property.

java -jar rabbitmq-tutorials.jar --spring.profiles.active=tut2,receiver,remote --tutorial.client.duration=60000

By default, Spring AMQP uses localhost to connect to RabbitMQ. In the sample, the remote profile causes Spring to load the properties in application-remote.yml that are used for testing with a non-local server. Set your own properties in the one in the project, or provide your own on the command line when you run it.

To use to a remote RabbitMQ installation set the following properties:

spring:
  rabbitmq:
    host: <rabbitmq-server>
    username: <tutorial-user>
    password: <tutorial-user>

To use this at runtime create a file called application-remote.yml (or properties) and set the properties in there. Then set the remote profile as in the example above. See the Spring Boot and Spring AMQP documentation for more information on setting application properties and AMQP properties specifically.
