what is the difference between reject and ack #84
Comments
Hi @episodeyang,
'reject' is an explicit "not acknowledged" and do not requeue (by default). RabbitMQ will drop the message from the queue entirely, as the message will not be processable in that queue. you can specify a 'requeue' parameter for reject, like nack. (see https://www.rabbitmq.com/amqp-0-9-1-reference.html#basic.reject) The advantage of 'nack' over reject is that nack works with mutliple messages if you want it to. reject, i think, is for a single message. personally, i use i'm a little fuzzy on the exact details, still... but i think in general these descriptions are pretty close |
Thanks for the explanation! |
very well explained. thanks @derickbailey ! |
