There are a lots of good options if you want to run a RabbitMQ cluster in docker. Here's an solution that only rely on docker official images 🎉
The main benifit with this approach is that you can use any version of RabbitMQ, which is maintaied by docker and will be up-to-date with future releases.
git clone https://github.com/orginux/docker-rabbitmq-ha-cluster.git
cd docker-rabbitmq-ha-cluster
chmod 600 erlang.cookie
docker-compose up -dMost things will be how you expect:
- See the default username and password in .env file
- The broker accepts connections on
localhost:5672 - The Management interface is found at
localhost:15672
This docker-compose.yml file comes with the latest version of HA Proxy, an open source software that provides a high availability load balancer and proxy server.
It should be fairly easy to add a port mapping for the individual containers if it is desired to connect to a specific broker node.
