load_amqp

Loads a byte stream via AMQP messages.

load_amqp [url:str, channel=int, exchange=str, routing_key=str, queue=str,
          options=record, passive=bool, durable=bool, exclusive=bool,
          no_auto_delete=bool, no_local=bool, ack=bool]

Description

The load_amqp operator is an AMQP 0-9-1 client to receive messages from a queue.

url: str (optional)

A URL that specifies the AMQP server. The URL must have the following format:

amqp://[USERNAME[:PASSWORD]@]HOSTNAME[:PORT]/[VHOST]

When the URL is present, it will overwrite the corresponding values of the configuration options.

channel = int (optional)

The channel number to use.

Defaults to 1.

exchange = str (optional)

The exchange to interact with.

Defaults to "amq.direct".

routing_key = str (optional)

For the loader, the name of the routing key to bind a queue to an exchange. For the saver, the routing key to publish messages with.

Defaults to the empty string.

options = record (optional)

An option record for RabbitMQ , e.g., {max_channels: 42, frame_size: 1024, sasl_method: "external"}.

Available options are:

hostname: 127.0.0.1
port: 5672
ssl: false
vhost: /
max_channels: 2047
frame_size: 131072
heartbeat: 0
sasl_method: plain
username: guest
password: guest

queue = str (optional)

The name of the queue to declare and then bind to.

Defaults to the empty string, resulting in auto-generated queue names, such as "amq.gen-XNTLF0FwabIn9FFKKtQHzg".

passive = bool (optional)

If true, the server will reply with OK if an exchange already exists with the same name, and raise an error otherwise.

Defaults to false.

durable = bool (optional)

If true when creating a new exchange, the exchange will be marked as durable. Durable exchanges remain active when a server restarts. Non-durable exchanges (transient exchanges) are purged if/when a server restarts.

Defaults to false.

exclusive = bool (optional)

If true, marks the queue as exclusive. Exclusive queues may only be accessed by the current connection, and are deleted when that connection closes. Passive declaration of an exclusive queue by other connections are not allowed.

Defaults to false.

no_auto_delete = bool (optional)

If true, the exchange will not be deleted when all queues have finished using it.

Defaults to false.

no_local = bool (optional)

If true, the server will not send messages to the connection that published them.

Defaults to false.

ack = bool (optional)

If true, the server expects acknowledgements for messages. Otherwise, when a message is delivered to the client the server assumes the delivery will succeed and immediately dequeues it. This functionality may decrease performance at and improve reliability. Without this flag, messages can get lost if a client dies before they are delivered to the application.

Defaults to false.

Examples

Consume a message from a specified AMQP queue
