node-amqp
Wrapper around the amqplib node library.
The main goal of this module is to hide the actual procedures needed to establish a amqp connection instantiating objects.
node-amqp is developed by 720kb.
Requirements
Node.js v5.0.0+
Installation
This module can be installed via npm issuing:
$ npm install node-amqp --save
in your project folder.
Usage
At this moment, the module expose four objects that manage two kind of interactions between actors:
- Publish/Subscribe;
- Work queue.
The first configuration is achieved with the Publisher and Subscriber objects; the second is achieved with Task and Worker objects.
All these notify theirs connections state with events, at the moment the only usable are:
amqp:ready: emitted when the amqp connection and client channel are correctly instantiated and configured;amqp:connection-closed: emitted when the amqp connection is closed;amqp:channel-close: emitted when the client channel opened upon the amqp connection is closed.
Examples
Here are short usage examples:
Publish/Subscribe
//Publish
const nodeAmqp = require('node-amqp')
, Publisher = nodeAmqp.Publisher
, publisher = new Publisher({
'host': '<amqp host>', //e.g. amqp://localhost
'exchangeName': '<exchange where publish the messages>', //e.g. node-amqp:exchange-test
'socketOptions': {} // socket options used for example to configure ssl. Reference for this can be found at http://www.squaremobius.net/amqp.node/channel_api.html#connect
});
publisher.send('a message!'); //objects must be serialized, for example in JSON//Publish
const nodeAmqp = require('node-amqp')
, Subscriber = nodeAmqp.Subscriber;
class MySubscriber extends Subscriber {
constructor() {
super({
'host': '<amqp host>', //e.g. amqp://localhost
'exchangeName': '<exchange where published messages are>', //e.g. node-amqp:exchange-test
'socketOptions': {} // socket options used for example to configure ssl. Reference for this can be found at http://www.squaremobius.net/amqp.node/channel_api.html#connect
});
}
onMessage(message) {
let messageArrived = message.content.toString();
console.info(`${messageArrived} published!`);
}
}
const subscriber = new MySubscriber();Work queue
//Producer
const nodeAmqp = require('node-amqp')
, Task = nodeAmqp.Task
, task = new Task({
'host': '<amqp host>', //e.g. amqp://localhost
'queueName': '<queue where put the messages>', //e.g. node-amqp:queue-test
'socketOptions': {} // socket options used for example to configure ssl. Reference for this can be found at http://www.squaremobius.net/amqp.node/channel_api.html#connect
});
task.send('a message!'); //objects must be serialized, for example in JSON//Consumer
const nodeAmqp = require('node-amqp')
, Worker = nodeAmqp.Worker
, worker = new Worker({
'host': '<amqp host>', //e.g. amqp://localhost
'queueName': '<queue where get the messages>', //e.g. node-amqp:queue-test
'socketOptions': {} // socket options used for example to configure ssl. Reference for this can be found at http://www.squaremobius.net/amqp.node/channel_api.html#connect
});
//1st approach register a consumer:
worker.consume()
.then(message => {
worker.cancelConsumer(); //if you want to cancel the consumer call this method.
let messageArrived = message.content.toString();
console.info(`${messageArrived} arrived from producer`);
})
.catch(err => {
throw new Error(err);
});
//2nd approach query for a message:
worker.receive()
.then(message => {
if (message) { //false if there is nothing on queue
let messageArrived = message.content.toString();
console.info(`${messageArrived} present in queue`);
}
})
.catch(err => {
throw new Error(err);
