RabbitMQ in Node.js without hating life.
producer.js:
var jackrabbit = require('jackrabbit');
var rabbit = jackrabbit(process.env.RABBIT_URL);
rabbit
.default()
.publish('Hello World!', { key: 'hello' })
.on('drain', rabbit.close);
consumer.js:
var jackrabbit = require('jackrabbit');
var rabbit = jackrabbit(process.env.RABBIT_URL);
rabbit
.default()
.queue({ name: 'hello' })
.consume(onMessage, { noAck: true });
function onMessage(data) {
console.log('received:', data);
}
var jackrabbit = require('jackrabbit');
var rabbit = jackrabbit(process.env.RABBIT_URL);
rabbit
.default()
.queue({ name: 'important_job' })
.consume(function(data, ack, nack, msg) {
// process data...
// and ACK on success
ack();
// or alternatively NACK on failure
nack();
})
Jackrabbit is designed for simplicity and an easy API. If you're an AMQP expert and want more power and flexibility, check out wascally.
For now, the best usage help is can be found in examples, which map 1-to-1 with the official RabbitMQ tutorials.
npm install --save jackrabbit
The tests are set up with Docker + Docker-Compose, so you don't need to install rabbitmq (or even node) to run them:
$ docker-compose run jackrabbit npm test
If using Docker-Machine on OSX:
$ docker-machine start
$ eval "$(docker-machine env default)"
$ docker-compose run jackrabbit npm test
