Jackrabbit

RabbitMQ in Node.js without hating life.

producer.js:

var jackrabbit = require('jackrabbit');
var rabbit = jackrabbit(process.env.RABBIT_URL);

rabbit
  .default()
  .publish('Hello World!', { key: 'hello' })
  .on('drain', rabbit.close);

consumer.js:

var jackrabbit = require('jackrabbit');
var rabbit = jackrabbit(process.env.RABBIT_URL);

rabbit
  .default()
  .queue({ name: 'hello' })
  .consume(onMessage, { noAck: true });

function onMessage(data) {
  console.log('received:', data);
}

Use

For now, the best usage help is found in the examples, which map 1-to-1 with the official RabbitMQ tutorials.

Installation

npm install --save jackrabbit

Tests

The tests are set up with Docker + Docker-Compose, so you don't need to install rabbitmq (or even node) to run them:

$ docker-compose run jackrabbit npm test
