# RabbitMQ Client for Vert.x

A Vert.x client allowing applications to interact with a RabbitMQ broker (AMQP 0.9.1)

This service is experimental and the APIs are likely to change before settling down.

## Getting Started

### Maven

Add the following dependency to your maven project

    <dependency>
      <groupId>io.vertx</groupId>
      <artifactId>vertx-rabbitmq-client</artifactId>
      <version>3.3.1</version>
    </dependency>

### Gradle

Add the following dependency to your gradle project

    dependencies {
      compile 'io.vertx:vertx-rabbitmq-client:3.3.1'
    }

### Create a client

You can create a client instance as follows:

    require 'vertx-rabbitmq/rabbit_mq_client'
    client = VertxRabbitmq::RabbitMQClient.create(vertx, config)

## Operations

The following are some examples of the operations supported by the RabbitMQService API.

Consult the javadoc/documentation for detailed information on all API methods.

### Publish

Publish a message to a queue

    message = {
      'body' => "Hello RabbitMQ, from Vert.x !"
    }
    client.basic_publish("", "my.queue", message) { |pubResult_err,pubResult|
      if (pubResult_err == nil)
        puts "Message published !"
      else
        pubResult_err.print_stack_trace()
      end
    }

### Consume

Consume messages from a queue

    // Create the event bus handler which messages will be sent to
    # Create the event bus handler which messages will be sent to
    vertx.event_bus().consumer("my.address") { |msg|
      json = msg.body()
      puts "Got message: #{json['body']}"
    }

    # Setup the link between rabbitmq consumer and event bus address
    client.basic_consume("my.queue", "my.address") { |consumeResult_err,consumeResult|
      if (consumeResult_err == nil)
        puts "RabbitMQ consumer created !"
      else
        consumeResult_err.print_stack_trace()
      end
    }

### Get

Will get a message from a queue

    client.basic_get("my.queue", true) { |getResult_err,getResult|
      if (getResult_err == nil)
        msg = getResult
        puts "Got message: #{msg['body']}"
      else
        getResult_err.print_stack_trace()
      end
    }

### Consume messages without auto-ack

    # Create the event bus handler which messages will be sent to
    vertx.event_bus().consumer("my.address") { |msg|
      json = msg.body()
      puts "Got message: #{json['body']}"
      # ack
      client.basic_ack(json['deliveryTag'], false) { |asyncResult_err,asyncResult|
      }
    }

    # Setup the link between rabbitmq consumer and event bus address
    client.basic_consume("my.queue", "my.address", false) { |consumeResult_err,consumeResult|
      if (consumeResult_err == nil)
        puts "RabbitMQ consumer created !"
      else
        consumeResult_err.print_stack_trace()
      end
    }

## Running the tests

You will need to have RabbitMQ installed and running with default ports on localhost for this to work. <a href="mailto:nscavell@redhat.com">Nick Scavelli</a>
