An example setup demoing a basic use of Node.js and AMQP.

#AMQP Test

This app is a basic Node.js system showing how to use JackRabbit and AMQP. To use the app you need rabbitmq installed, installation instructions for Mac OSX are available here.

##Usage Firstly open a terminal window and launch rabbit mq using

rabbitmq-server

To use the app run the main server

node index.js

Then open a new terminal window and launch a service by navigating to the services directory and launching the info service using

node services/info.js

or you can run the time service useing

node services/time.js

You can launch multiple instances of the service(s) by repeating this and they will all subscribe to the same queue.

To then make a request to the server to call a service open a final terminal session calling

curl 0.0.0.0:8080/info

If you make this request multiple times then you can see the different services responding to the requests.
