RabbitMQ datasource

The RabbitMQ datasource provides the message count from RabbitMQ queues. The datasource use Basic Auth to authenticate a user.

Config

Set source to rabbitmq. Add the following config proporties:

Config property	Description
url	Url of RabbitMQ server
queueName	Name of the queue to monitor
auth	Authorization params

Example

{
  id: 'rabbitmqsource',
  plugin: 'generic',
  source: 'rabbitmq',
  updateInterval: 5000,
  timeout: 5000,
  config: {
    auth: {
      type: "basic",
      options: {
        username: "rabbitmq-username",
        password: "rabbitmq-password"
      }
    },
    url: "http://rabbitserver:15672/",  
    queueName: "Omnibus"
  }
}

The data source produces a JSON object like this:

{
  queueName: "Omnibus,
  messageCount: 0
}

We recommend using the queue widget.

  plugin: 'generic',

  datasourceId: 'rabbitmqsource',
  displayName: 'My queue',
