DESCRIPTION:

ruote-amqp provides an AMQP participant/listener pair that allows you to distribute workitems out to AMQP consumers for processing, as well as launching processes over AMQP.

To learn more about remote participants in ruote please see ruote.rubyforge.org/part_implementations.html

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

• Flexible participant for sending workitems
• Flexible listener for receiving replies
• Flexible launch item listener for launching processes over AMQP
• Fully evented (thanks to the amqp gem)

SYNOPSIS:

Please review the rdoc in RuoteAMQP::Participant and Ruote::AMQP::Listener

REQUIREMENTS:

• ruote 2.1.4 or later
• amqp 0.6.6 or later
• rufus-json 0.1.0 or later
• rabbitmq 1.6.0 or later

INSTALL:

Please be sure to have read the requirements section above

• sudo gem install ruote-amqp

TESTS:

To run the tests you need the following requirements met, or the testing environment will fail horribly.

RabbitMQ vhost

The tests use dedicated vhost on a running AMQP broker. To configure RabbitMQ you can run the following commands:

  # rabbitmqctl add_vhost ruote-test
  # rabbitmqctl add_user ruote ruote
  # rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p ruote-test ruote '.*' '.*' '.*'

If you need to change the AMQP configuration used by the tests, edit the +spec/spec_helper.rb+ file.

DAEMON-KIT:

Although the RuoteAMQP gem will work perfectly well with any AMQP consumer, it is recommended that you use daemon-kit to write your remote participants.

daemon-kit offers plenty of convenience for remote participants and includes a code generator for ruote remote participants.

DaemonKit doesn’t currently support ruote 2.1, support is forthcoming.
