what do people make with this?

VIBE 1

Follow the official RabbitMQ tutorial series and run the matching code examples locally in your preferred language.

VIBE 2

Learn how to distribute tasks across multiple worker processes using a work queue pattern in Python or Go.

VIBE 3

Implement a publish-subscribe broadcast so one message is sent to many different consumers at once.

VIBE 4

Route messages to specific destinations using topic or direct exchange patterns in any of the 20-plus supported languages.

in plain english

This repository contains the runnable code examples that accompany the official RabbitMQ tutorials. RabbitMQ is a message broker, which is a piece of software that sits between different parts of an application (or between separate applications) and handles the passing of messages from one part to another. It is commonly used to let different services communicate without being directly connected, which helps with things like background job processing, distributing work across multiple workers, or publishing events that multiple consumers can receive. The tutorials themselves are hosted on the RabbitMQ website and walk through progressively more complex messaging patterns: sending a simple message, distributing tasks across worker processes, broadcasting to multiple receivers, routing messages to specific destinations, and more. This repository holds only the actual code so developers can run the examples locally while following along with the written guides. All examples require a RabbitMQ server running locally with default settings. Installation options for that server are covered in RabbitMQ's own documentation and include a Windows installer, a Docker image, Homebrew on macOS, and packages for Linux distributions. The same tutorial patterns are implemented in more than 20 programming languages, all included in this single repository. Languages covered include Python, Java, Go, Ruby, JavaScript with Node.js, PHP, Rust, Elixir, Kotlin, Scala, Haskell, Clojure, Erlang, Dart, Perl, Swift, C#, and Spring AMQP, among others. Each language has its own subdirectory with self-contained code. The project is maintained by the RabbitMQ team and released under the Apache License 2.0.

prompts (copy fr)

prompt 1

I am following the RabbitMQ tutorials and want to run the Python work queue example locally. Walk me through installing RabbitMQ with Docker and running the sender and receiver scripts.

prompt 2

Show me how the RabbitMQ publish-subscribe example works in Go and explain what the fanout exchange does and why each subscriber gets its own queue.

prompt 3

I want to add a dead-letter queue to the RabbitMQ direct routing example in Java. Show me how messages that fail processing get redirected to a separate queue.

prompt 4

Help me adapt the RabbitMQ topic exchange example in JavaScript to route log messages by severity and source, so error logs go to one service and info logs go to another.

prompt 5

Explain the difference between the RabbitMQ work queue pattern and the publish-subscribe pattern and show me the key code difference in Python.
