CF RabbitMQ Example App

This app is an example of how you can consume a Cloud Foundry service within an app. It can also be used to verify a RabbitMQ service installation.

It allows you to push message into, and pull messages out of, RabbitMQ message queues, via a REST endpoint.

Getting Started

Install the app by pushing it to your Cloud Foundry and binding with the Pivotal RabbitMQ service

Example:

$ git clone git@github.com:starkandwayne/cf-rabbitmq-example-app.git
$ cd rabbitmq-example-app
$ cf push rabbitmq-example-app --no-start
$ cf create-service p-rabbitmq development rabbitmq
$ cf bind-service rabbitmq-example-app rabbitmq

Endpoints

GET /ping

Verifies that the application is up and responding, and can connect to the RabbitMQ backend service. Example:

$ export APP=rabbitmq-example-app.my-cloud-foundry.com
$ curl $APP/ping
OK

POST /queues

Define a queue, passed in the 'name' field. Example:

$ curl -X POST $APP/queues -d 'name=a-test-queue'
SUCCESS

GET /queues

Prints the queues that have been defined so far. Example:

$ curl $APP/queues
a-test-queue

PUT /queue/:name

Pushes a message, passed in the 'data' field, into the named message queue. Example:

$ curl -X PUT $APP/queue/a-test-queue -d 'data=Hello'
SUCCESS

GET /queue/:name

Pulls a single message from the named message queue. Example:

$ curl -X GET $APP/queue/a-test-queue
Hello
