Introduction

This repository contains sample code to authenticate and authorize an external client application to connect to a RabbitMQ message broker using an JWT toke aquired from a Microsoft Entra ID tenant using the Microsoft MSAL Python librabry

Getting Started

Firstly a private key and a certificate to authenticate with Microsoft Entra ID must be created. This certificate must be uploaded to the Microsoft Entra ID.

Create certificate

To generate the private key and certificate run the script generate_certificate.sh and answer the questions. The resulting certificate and private key will be saved to the src/certficate directory

./generate_certificate.sh

Running the code

Configuration is done in the config.yaml file. See this file for a description of the values required. Obtain the required values from an admin of the Microsoft Entra ID tenant.

To install requirements run the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

To run the script and connect to RabbitMQ cd to the src directory and run the command

python main.py
