Go-RabbitMQ-producer-consumer-model

This repository contains a simple demonstration of the producer-consumer model using RabbitMQ in Go. It showcases basic operations such as connecting to a RabbitMQ server, declaring queues, and sending/receiving messages.

Overview

The codebase includes a basic implementation of a message producer and consumer using RabbitMQ. The producer sends messages to a specified queue, and the consumer retrieves and processes these messages.

Prerequisites

Before running this project, ensure you have the following installed:

• Go (version 1.x or higher)
• RabbitMQ server (locally or remotely accessible)

Installation

1. Clone the Repository

2. Install Dependencies

• This project uses the github.com/rabbitmq/amqp091-go package. Install it using:

  go get github.com/rabbitmq/amqp091-go
  

Running the Application

1. Start RabbitMQ Server

• Ensure your RabbitMQ server is running and accessible.

2. Run the Application

• Run the application using:

  go run main.go
  

• This will start both the producer and consumer.

Understanding the Code

• main.go: Contains the main logic for setting up the RabbitMQ connection, channels, producer, and consumer.
• producer: Responsible for sending messages to the RabbitMQ queue.
• consumer: Listens for messages from the queue and processes them.
