rmq is a command line Swiss army knife for sending and receiving messages to and from RabbitMQ.
To send a random message to a queue:
$ rmq -d in -c 1 -k foo
2014-27-03 02:36:08.673 - sender connected to localhost
2014-27-03 02:36:08.674 - [296291375195656193] sending 1.00 kB (91f17fdc)
To receive messages from a queue:
$ rmq -d out -q foo
2014-27-03 02:35:54.500 - receiver connected to localhost
2014-27-03 02:35:54.504 - receiver (fLnW) subscribed to queue foo (prefetch=0)
2014-27-03 02:36:08.676 - [fLnW] 296291375195656193 receiving 1.00 kB (91f17fdc) @ 1.14 ms
To send a JSON message to a queue using command line arguments:
$ rmq -d in -c 1 -k foo foo=x bar=y
2014-25-07 11:13:58.594 - sender connected to 127.0.0.1
2014-25-07 11:13:58.595 - [339711942334386177] sending 0.02 kB (eb07f4ad)
The space separated key value pairs are delimited by an = sign.
To get (very) basic info about the server:
$ rmq -I
RabbitMQ Server 3.2.4
- Send and receive random messages to RabbitMQ from the command line
- Send JSON message payloads using command line arguments
- Send an arbitrary number of messages
- Specify the average size and standard deviation of the messages to send
- Concurrent sending receiving in either separate AMQP connections or channels or both
- Crude send rate throttling
- Crude consumer latency simulation
- Setting the prefetch length for consumers
- Consumer tags can be used to correlate log output with RabbitMQ management
- Use persistent messaging as an option
- Prints latency metrics for round trip operations
- Deep entropy analysis for sending and receiving messages
- Optionally auto-re-subscribe to cancelled subscriptions (e.g. with mirrored queues)
On OSX you can use Homebrew to install rmq:
$ brew tap relops/homebrew-rmq
$ brew install rmq
On Linux and OSX, you can download the binary:
If your platform is not covered here, please get in touch and we can probably cross-compile it for you.
$ rmq -h
Usage:
rmq [OPTIONS]
Application Options:
-Q, --queue-info= List queues
-d, --direction= Use rmq to send (-d in) or receive (-d out) messages
-x, --exchange= The exchange to send to (-d in) or bind a queue to when receiving (-d out)
-q, --queue= The queue to receive from (when used with -d in)
-T, --persistent Use persistent messaging (false)
-n, --no-declare If set, then don't attempt to declare the queue or bind it (false)
-f, --prefetch= The number of outstanding acks a receiver will be limited to, default of 0 means unbounded (0)
-y, --priority= The relative priority for receiving messages (0)
-G, --global-prefetch Whether to share the prefetch limit accross all consumers of a channel (false)
-k, --key= The key to use for routing (-d in) or for queue binding (-d out)
-c, --count= The number of messages to send (10)
-i, --interval= The delay (in ms) between sending or receiving messages (0)
-D, --delete If set, it will remove the object specified by the -q or -a argument (false)
-I, --info If set, print basic server info (requires management API to be installed on the server) (false)
-g, --concurrency= The number of processes per connection (1)
-m, --connections= The number of connections to use (1)
-z, --size= Message size in kB (1)
-t, --stddev= Standard deviation of message size (0)
-R, --replication= The number of nodes to replicate queues to (0)
-N, --nodes= The nodes to apply the command to (use with -a)
-A, --ha= HA information
-a, --ha-name= The HA policy name to use when creating a policy
-r, --renew Automatically resubscribe when the server cancels a subscription (used for mirrored queues) (false)
-u, --user= The user to connect as (guest)
-w, --pass= The user's password (guest)
-H, --host= The Rabbit host to connect to (127.0.0.1)
-p, --port= The Rabbit port to connect on (5672)
-P, --management-port= The Rabbit HTTP management port to connect on (15672)
-e, --entropy Display message level entropy information (false)
-V, --version Print rmq version and exit
-v, --verbose Show verbose debug information
