RabbitMQ server

Simple implementation of the RabbitMQ server Docker image based on Tutum code.

Instalation

Preferred way to install and using the project is via the Docker Hub.

docker pull apollo13/rabbitmq-server

Running the RabbitMQ server

On development environment, before the starting of the server check existence of running Redis docker image as is described in apollo13/ubuntu README.md

Run the following command to start rabbitmq:

docker run --name rabbitmq-server -d -p 5672:5672 -p 15671:15671 -p 15672:15672 -p 15674:15674 --env EC2_ENVIRONMENT=false apollo13/rabbitmq-server

For boot2docker users: Set port forwarding from boot2docker to local computer:

VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port5672,tcp,,5672,,5672";
VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port15672,tcp,,15671,,15671";
VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port15672,tcp,,15672,,15672";
VBoxManage modifyvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port15674,tcp,,15674,,15674";

For already running boot2docker virtual:

VBoxManage controlvm "boot2docker-vm" natpf1 "tcp-port5672,tcp,,5672,,5672";
VBoxManage controlvm "boot2docker-vm" natpf1 "tcp-port15672,tcp,,15671,,15671";
VBoxManage controlvm "boot2docker-vm" natpf1 "tcp-port15672,tcp,,15672,,15672";
VBoxManage controlvm "boot2docker-vm" natpf1 "tcp-port15674,tcp,,15674,,15674";

The first time that you run your container, a new random password will be set. To get the password, check the logs of the container by running:

docker logs rabbitmq-server

You will see an output like the following:

========================================================================
You can now connect to this RabbitMQ server using, for example:

    curl --user admin:5elsT6KtjrqV  http://<host>:<port>/api/vhosts

Please remember to change the above password as soon as possible!
========================================================================

In this case, 5elsT6KtjrqV is the password set. You can then connect to RabbitMQ:

curl --user admin:5elsT6KtjrqV  http://<host>:<port>/api/vhosts

Or try to open Rabbit MQ management from the browser:

http://localhost:15672

Alternatively you can set up initial username and password while starting the container using environment variables:

docker run --name rabbitmq-server -d -p 5672:5672 -p 15671:15671 -p 15672:15672  -p 15674:15674 --env RABBITMQ_USER=apollo --env RABBITMQ_PASS=mysecretpassword --env EC2_ENVIRONMENT=false apollo13/rabbitmq-server

For Development environment you have to set link to docker container with redis for storing credentials for other containers

docker run --name rabbitmq-server -d -p 5672:5672 -p 15671:15671 -p 15672:15672 -p 15674:15674 --link --env EC2_ENVIRONMENT=false config-service:config-service apollo13/rabbitmq-server

Building Docker image locally

Prepare standard named project directory

mkdir ./rabbitmq-server
cd ./rabbitmq-server

Preferred way to build the Docker image is via the GIT.

git clone git@bitbucket.org:apollo-13/docker-rabbitmq-server.git

Build the image in the root folder ./ of the cloned repository

docker build -t apollo13/rabbitmq-server .

Settings

The following environment variables are supported:

RABBITMQ_USER : Name of the administrator account to be created (default admin).

RABBITMQ_PASS : Password to the administrator account specified in RABBITMQ_USER setting.

RABBITMQ_SSL_CERT, RABBITMQ_SSL_KEY, RABBITMQ_SSL_CACERT : SSL certificates for WebStomp.
