go-rabbitmq

Wrapper of streadway/amqp that provides reconnection logic and sane defaults. Hit the project with a star if you find it useful ⭐

Supported by Qvault

Motivation

Streadway's AMQP library is currently the most robust and well-supported Go client I'm aware of. It's a fantastic option and I recommend starting there and seeing if it fulfills your needs. Their project has made an effort to stay within the scope of the AMQP protocol, as such, no reconnection logic and few ease-of-use abstractions are provided.

The goal with go-rabbitmq is to still provide most all of the nitty-gritty functionality of AMQP, but to make it easier to work with via a higher-level API. Particularly:

• Automatic reconnection
• Multithreaded consumers via a handler function
• Reasonable defaults
• Flow control handling

⚙️ Installation

Outside of a Go module:

go get github.com/wagslane/go-rabbitmq

🚀 Quick Start Consumer

Default options

consumer, err := rabbitmq.NewConsumer("amqp://user:pass@localhost")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
err = consumer.StartConsuming(
    func(d rabbitmq.Delivery) bool {
        log.Printf("consumed: %v", string(d.Body))
        // true to ACK, false to NACK
        return true
    },
    "my_queue",
    []string{"routing_key1", "routing_key2"}
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

With options

consumer, err := rabbitmq.NewConsumer(
    "amqp://user:pass@localhost",
    rabbitmq.WithConsumerOptionsLogging,
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
err = consumer.StartConsuming(
    func(d rabbitmq.Delivery) bool {
        log.Printf("consumed: %v", string(d.Body))
        // true to ACK, false to NACK
        return true
    },
    "my_queue",
    []string{"routing_key1", "routing_key2"},
    rabbitmq.WithConsumeOptionsConcurrency(10),
    rabbitmq.WithConsumeOptionsQueueDurable,
    rabbitmq.WithConsumeOptionsQuorum,
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

🚀 Quick Start Publisher

Default options

publisher, returns, err := rabbitmq.NewPublisher("amqp://user:pass@localhost")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
err = publisher.Publish([]byte("hello, world"), []string{"routing_key"})
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

With options

publisher, returns, err := rabbitmq.NewPublisher(
    "amqp://user:pass@localhost",
    // can pass nothing for no logging
    rabbitmq.WithPublisherOptionsLogging,
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
err = publisher.Publish(
    []byte("hello, world"),
    []string{"routing_key"},
    // leave blank for defaults
    rabbitmq.WithPublishOptionsContentType("application/json"),
    rabbitmq.WithPublishOptionsMandatory,
    rabbitmq.WithPublishOptionsPersistentDelivery,
)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

go func() {
    for r := range returns {
        log.Printf("message returned from server: %s", string(r.Body))
    }
}()
