RabbitMQ Cluster in Kubernetes

(Using the rabbitmq-clusterer plugin)

This is an example of how one might implement a rabbitmq cluster in Kubernetes using the clusterer plugin. Advice, input and pull requests on how to improve this would be greatly appreciated.

Prerequisites

This readme assumes you are familiar with running Docker plus Kubernetes/Minikube. You also need to run a Docker Registry.

Build the docker image

docker build -t localhost:5000/com/example/rabbitmq_clusterer .

Push the image

docker push localhost:5000/com/example/rabbitmq_clusterer

Start rabbitmq services

kubectl create -f kube/rabbitmq-clustered-service1.yaml
kubectl create -f kube/rabbitmq-clustered-service2.yaml
kubectl create -f kube/rabbitmq-clustered-service3.yaml

Start replication controllers

kubectl create -f kube/rabbitmq-clustered-rc1.yaml
kubectl create -f kube/rabbitmq-clustered-rc2.yaml
kubectl create -f kube/rabbitmq-clustered-rc3.yaml

Apply the cluster configuration on one of the containers

# login to a pod
# your pod name will vary
kubectl exec -it rabbit1-gwoxt bash 
apply-cluster-config.sh

Check if the cluster configuration succeeded

kubectl logs -f rabbit1-gwoxt

If successful you'll see the following at the end of the log stream:

 =INFO REPORT==== 19-Dec-2016::02:36:19 ===
 rabbit on node rabbit@rabbit2 up
 
 =INFO REPORT==== 19-Dec-2016::02:36:19 ===
 rabbit on node rabbit@rabbit3 up

Start the rabbitmq round-robin service

     kubectl create -f kube/rabbitmq-clustered-svc.yaml

Describe the rabbitmq service:

 kubectl describe service rabbitmq-svc
 Name:			rabbitmq-svc
 Namespace:		default
 Labels:			name=rabbitmq-svc
 Selector:		type=rabbitmq
 Type:			NodePort
 IP:			10.0.0.172
 Port:			amqp-tls	5671/TCP
 NodePort:		amqp-tls	30399/TCP
 Endpoints:		172.17.0.5:5671,172.17.0.6:5671,172.17.0.7:5671
 Port:			amqp	5672/TCP
 NodePort:		amqp	31200/TCP
 Endpoints:		172.17.0.5:5672,172.17.0.6:5672,172.17.0.7:5672
 Port:			mgmt	15672/TCP
 NodePort:		mgmt	30849/TCP
 Endpoints:		172.17.0.5:15672,172.17.0.6:15672,172.17.0.7:15672
 Session Affinity:	None
 No events.

Load the rabbitmq management console in your browser

The exposed port for the management console in this example is: 30849. See NodePort: mgmt 30849/TCP above

http://<docker-host>:30849
