RabbitMQ

RabbitMQ - an AMQP client for NodeJS

Installation

"dependencies": {
    "amqplib": "^0.5.5",
    "dotenv": "^8.1.0"
}

npm install amqp-library

Requirements

• set the rabbitmq url in your .env.

  RABBITMQ_URL=amqp://localhost

  or `javascript //when initializing RabbitMQ, pass in the url rabbitMQ.init("amqp://localhost") .then(connection => {}) .catch(err => {});

## Initialization
```javascript
const RabbitMQ = require('rabbitmq');

Basic functionality

• Create A Channel

  //(async/await)
  const rabbitMQ = new RabbitMQ();
  const connection = await rabbitMQ.init();
  const channel = await rabbitMQ.createChannel(channelName, {
    durable: true //options: checkout https://www.rabbitmq.com for more options
  });

• To queue a data for processing `javascript //(async/await) const rabbitMQ = new RabbitMQ(); const connection = await rabbitMQ.init(); const channel = await rabbitMQ.createChannel(channelName, { durable: true //options: checkout https://www.rabbitmq.com for more options });

const payload = { timestamp: Date.now(), name: "A Name", email: "Email" }; const data = await rabbitMQ.queue(channelName, payload,{persistent: true}); console.log("Payload", data); //{data: true}

-- To assert/create an exchange 
```javascript
const exchangeName = "logs";
const rabbitMQ = new RabbitMQ();
const connection = await rabbitMQ.init();
const exchange =  await rabbitMQ.assertExchange(exchangeName,"fanout", {durable: true}); //exchange types includes fanout, direct, topic and header.checkout https://www.rabbitmq.com for more exchange types. 
console.log({exchange});
//Exchange { exchange: { exchange: 'test-exchange' } }

-- To Publish to an exchange

const exchangeName = "logs";
const rabbitMQ = new RabbitMQ();
const connection = await rabbitMQ.init();
const exchange =  await rabbitMQ.assertExchange(exchangeName,"fanout", {durable: true});
const push = await rabbitMQ.publish(exchangeName,'',{
    timestamp: Date.now(),
    name: "A Name",
    email: "Email"
});

console.log({push});
//{ push: true }

-- To create/assert A queue

const exchangeName = "logs";
const queueName = "test-exchange-queue";
const queueOption = {exclusive: true};
const bindKey = "route"; //read more on routing here https://rabbitmq.com/tutorials/tutorial-four-javascript.html
const rabbitMQ = new RabbitMQ();
const connection = await rabbitMQ.init();
const queue =  await rabbitMQ.assertQueue(exchangeName, queueName, queueOption, bindKey);
console.log({queue});
//   queue: { queue: 'test-exchange-queue', messageCount: 0, consumerCount: 0 }

-- To listen to a queue and pull data for processing

//(async/await)
const rabbitMQ = new RabbitMQ();
const connection = await rabbitMQ.init();
const channel = await rabbitMQ.createChannel(channelName, {
    durable: true //options: checkout https://www.rabbitmq.com for more options
});

rabbitMQ.listen(channelName,{
    noAck: false // listen options:checkout https://www.rabbitmq.com for more options
}, (payload) => {
    channel.ack(payload); //acknowledge that processing has been done and remove from queue
    expect(connection).to.not.be.null;
    expect(channel).to.not.be.null;
});

//Warning: If you enable acknowledgement {noAck: false}, the next data on the queue 
//won't be released by the queue until  the current data is acknowledge.

-- To close a connection

    rabbitMQ.close();
