Introduction

The TIBCO StreamBase® Adapter for RabbitMQ Producer allows the system to send data to a RabbitMQ broker. The connection to the broker can be shared across multiple RabbitMQ adapters and each adapter will create its own channel on the connection. A producer can create an exchange and queue or use an existing exchange or queue.

Properties

This section describes the properties you can set for this adapter, using the various tabs of the Properties view in StreamBase Studio.

General Tab

Name: Use this required field to specify or change the name of this instance of this component, which must be unique in the current EventFlow module. The name must contain only alphabetic characters, numbers, and underscores, and no hyphens or other special characters. The first character must be alphabetic or an underscore.

Operator: A read-only field that shows the formal name of the operator.

Class name: Shows the fully qualified class name that implements the functionality of this operator. If you need to reference this class name elsewhere in your application, you can right-click this field and select Copy from the context menu to place the full class name in the system clipboard.

Start options: This field provides a link to the Cluster Aware tab, where you configure the conditions under which this operator starts.

Enable Error Output Port: Select this check box to add an Error Port to this component. In the EventFlow canvas, the Error Port shows as a red output port, always the last port for the component. See Using Error Ports to learn about Error Ports.

Description: Optionally enter text to briefly describe the component's purpose and function. In the EventFlow Editor canvas, you can see the description by pressing Ctrl while the component's tooltip is displayed.

Operator Properties Tab

Property	Type	Description
RabbitMQ Configuration	Edit Button	Shortcut to the StreamBase Configuration File Editor, used for adapter configuration or converting an existing application's `adapter-configurations.xml` file to HOCON format.
RabbitMQ Server	drop-down list	A list of RabbitMQ server connections that have been specified in the `adapter-configurations.xml` file. See the Adapter File Configuration section of this document for information relating to the RabbitMQ connection options.
Create Channel On Connect	check box	When enabled a channel with the properties given at design time is created.
Qos	integer	If a positive integer value is supplied it is used as the channels quality of service value. A value of 0 means unlimited.
Qos Global	check box	When enabled the Qos setting is applied to the entire channel rather than each consumer.
Message Serializer Class	string	The class that implements the IRabbitMQSerializer and is instantiated to convert message bytes to the resulting message schema. Note See the section on custom serialization in this document.
Enable Control Port	check box	When enabled a control port allows commands to be sent to the operator to perform actions during runtime.
Enable Status Port	check box	When enabled a status port becomes available which will emit status tuples for various events of this operator.
Log Level	INFO	Controls the level of verbosity the adapter uses to issue informational traces to the console. This setting is independent of the containing application's overall log level. Available values, in increasing order of verbosity, are: OFF, ERROR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE.

Exchange Tab

Property	Type	Description
Name	string	The name of the exchange to connect to or create when `Createchannel On Connect` is enabled. If this value is blank the default exchange is used. This value cannot be blank if declare exchange is enabled.
Declare Exchange	check box	When enabled the system tries to declare this exchange on the server. This option is only valid when `Createchannel On Connect` is enabled. If enabled the `Name` property must be specified. If any other adapter is also set to declare an exchange and has the same name, the declare options must be identical or a runtime error will occur on startup. It is suggested that only on adapter set the declare flag and other adapters simply use the exchange name.
Type	drop-down list	The type of exchange to create. This option is only valid when `Createchannel On Connect` is enabled. See the RabbitMQ documentation for descriptions of the exchange types.
Use Defaults	check box	When checked the exchange is created as a non-autodelete, non-durable exchange with no extra arguments.
Is Durable	check box	When enabled the exchange is set to durable when created.
Is Auto Delete	check box	When enabled the exchange is set to deleted when not used.
Exchange Arguments	key value pair	The arguments to use when creating an exchange.

Queue Tab

Property	Type	Description
Name	string	The name of the queue to connect to or create if `Createchannel On Connect` is enabled. If this value is blank and declare queue is enabled a temporary queue is created. The name of the queue can be received from the status port when action is queue.
Declare Queue	check box	When enabled the system tries to declare this queue on the server. This option is only valid when `Createchannel On Connect` is enabled. If any other adapter is also set to declare a queue and has the same name, the declare options must be identical or a runtime error occurs on startup. It is suggested that only on adapter set the declare flag and other adapters simply use the queue name.
Is Durable	check box	When enabled the exchange is set to durable when created.
Is Auto Delete	check box	When enabled the exchange is set to deleted when not used.
Is Exclusive	check box	When enabled the queue is set to exclusive.
Queue Arguments	key value pair	The arguments to use when creating an queue.

Routing Tab

Property	Type	Description
Routing Keys	key value	The routing keys to use which are used differently depending on the type of exchange that is currently connected. See the RabbitMQ documentation for information about routing keys.

Message Tab

Property	Type	Description
Properties	drop-down list	A selection of property types that can be set for messages. If the type is set to custom you can set up the type with any format you require using the other properties on this tab. The property types are defined as follows: Default - RabbitMQ default message properties Basic - Content-type "application/octet-stream", Delivery Mode non-persistent, priority zero Minimal Basic - Empty basic properties, with no fields set Minimal Persistent Basic - Empty basic properties, with only Delivery Mode set to persistent Persistent Basic - Content-type "application/octet-stream", Delivery Mode persistent, priority zero Persistent Text Plain - Content-type "text/plain", Delivery Mode persistent, priority zero Text Plain - Content-type "text/plain", Delivery Mode non-persistent, priority zero Custom - User defined
Content Encoding	string	The content encoding to use when publishing the message. Only valid when Properties set to Custom.
Content Type	string	The content type to use when publishing the message. Only valid when Properties set to Custom.
Delivery Mode	option	The delivery mode to use when publishing the message. Only valid when Properties set to Custom.
Priority	string	The priority to use when publishing the message, must be a valid integer greater than 0. Only valid when Properties set to Custom.

Cluster Aware Tab

Use the settings in this tab to allow this operator or adapter to start and stop based on conditions that occur at runtime in a cluster with more than one node. During initial development of the fragment that contains this operator or adapter, and for maximum compatibility with TIBCO Streaming releases before 10.5.0, leave the Cluster start policy control in its default setting, Start with module.

Cluster awareness is an advanced topic that requires an understanding of StreamBase Runtime architecture features, including clusters, quorums, availability zones, and partitions. See Cluster Awareness Tab Settings on the Using Cluster Awareness page for instructions on configuring this tab.

Concurrency Tab

Use the Concurrency tab to specify parallel regions for this instance of this component, or multiplicity options, or both. The Concurrency tab settings are described in Concurrency Options, and dispatch styles are described in Dispatch Styles.

Caution

Concurrency settings are not suitable for every application, and using these settings requires a thorough analysis of your application. For details, see Execution Order and Concurrency, which includes important guidelines for using the concurrency options.

Data Port

Description

Use the data port to send message data.

Data Port Schema

message, string/tuple/blob/custom. The message. If the message is a tuple it is serialized as a binary tuple unless a custom serializer is specified.
channel (optional), integer. If the adapter is connected to multiple channels, a channel ID must be specified to determine which channel to send the message on. The channel ID is output as the object field of the status port when action equals channel. If the adapter is only connected to a single channel it will be used by default and this field can be ignored.
exchangeName (optional), string. The exchange to which to send the message to. If this field is missing or empty the currently connected exchange is used.
routingKey (optional), string. The routing key to use when sending this message. If this field is missing an empty routing key is used.
mandatory (optional), boolean. If present and a value of true the message is set as mandatory. If the field is missing the default value of false is used.
immediate (optional), boolean. If present and a value of true the message is set as immediate. If the field is missing the default value of false is used.
replyTo (optional), string. The replyTo property to set for the message. If this field is missing or empty this value is ignored.

- Error — Indicates this message is related to an error that occurred.
- Warn — Indicates this message is related to a warning that the user should be aware of.
- Info — Indicates this message is related to extra status information.
action, string.
- Connected — Connected to requested broker list.
- Connecting — Starting to connect
- Disconnecting — Disconnecting from.
- Connection — Information about the current connection
- Update Brokers — Information about updating the brokers
- Command — A user command
- Send — Trying to send a message
object, string. This value may be null. If it is not null, it contains a value relevant to the status message.
message, string. This is a formatted human readable message that explains the status message.
time, timestamp. The time the status message occurred.

Custom Serializer

When a class is supplied for the message serialization and the input message field is of type tuple you must provide a class that implements the com.streambase.sb.adapter.rabbitmq.IRabbitMQSerializer interface. Here is an example:

package com.streambase.rabbitmq.sample;

import java.util.EnumSet;

import com.streambase.sb.Tuple;
import com.streambase.sb.adapter.rabbitmq.IRabbitMQSerializer;
import com.streambase.sb.TupleJSONUtil;
import com.streambase.sb.TupleJSONUtil.Options;

public class CustomSerializer implements IRabbitMQSerializer {

  @Override
  public byte[] seralize(Tuple tuple, String exchange, String routingKey) throws Exception {
      EnumSet<Options> options = EnumSet.of(Options.INCLUDE_NULL_FIELDS, Options.INCLUDE_NULL_FIELDS, Options.PREFER_MAP);
      String jsonTuple = TupleJSONUtil.toJSONString(tuple, options, "");
      return jsonTuple.getBytes();
  }
}
