About this Repo

This is a Git repo for a customized version of the official Docker image for RabbitMQ, that allows RabbitMQ to be run as a cluster within a Rancher service.

Usage

1. Refer to Official RabbitMQ Docker Repository for basic instructions.
2. Set Docker hostname to service name, using Rancher's internal DNS FQDN (e.g. rabbit.rancher.internal)
3. Provide Rancher service name to environment variable RANCHER_SERVICE_NAME

Example docker-compose.yml

rabbit:
  ports:
    - 15672/tcp
  hostname: rabbit.rancher.internal
  environment:
    RANCHER_SERVICE_NAME: rabbit
    RABBITMQ_ERLANG_COOKIE: "RABBITCOOKIE"
  labels:
    io.rancher.container.dns: true
  image: dsvmacdonald/rancher-rabbitmq
