Support for the reply-to header about stompit HOT 1 CLOSED

The stompit library has supported RabbitMQ temp queue destinations since v0.22.0, but I agree with you that the library doesn't appear to support this feature, as the required method to use is undocumented and there's no relevant code example provided.

Automatic subscriptions created by a broker can be registered with the client by calling the Client#setImplicitSubscription method. This method should only be called once for each temporary queue destination you define. Automatic subscriptions cannot be cancelled and exist until the client disconnects.

In your example you would call this alternative subscription method once before or immediately after the first send, like for example:

client.setImplicitSubscription('/temp-queue/test', 'auto', function(error, message) {
    // find and call the reply callback
});

The second argument must have value of 'auto' to match the ack mode set by RabbitMQ.

When sending a request include the reply-to header in your send headers:

client.send({
  'destination': '/queue/test',
  'reply-to': '/temp-queue/test'
});

The stompit library cannot provide a request/response API useful for RPC. The problems of binding a reply callback to a request and how to encode/decode a request id in a message is for the user or another library to solve.
