RabbitMQ¶
Install RabbitMQ¶
RabbitMQ is available from the rabbitmq_rabbitmq-server repository, this repository can be installed with the following command:
curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/script.rpm.sh | sudo bash
You also need the rabbitmq_erlang repository so you can install erlang:
curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/rabbitmq/erlang/script.rpm.sh | sudo bash
RabbitMQ and erlang can then be installed with the command:
yum install rabbitmq-server erlang --enablerepo=rabbitmq_erlang,rabbitmq_rabbitmq-server
rabbitmq-env.conf¶
You need to create the file rabbitmq-env.conf before starting RabbitMQ:
For external access, replace 127.0.0.1 with the servers IP address
printf "HOSTNAME=localhost\nNODE_IP_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1\nNODENAME=rabbit@localhost" > /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-env.conf
Start RabbitMQ¶
You can start the RabbitMQ service with the command:
systemctl start rabbitmq-server
Start On Boot¶
You can enable rabbitmq-server on boot after installing it with this command:
systemctl enable rabbitmq-server
Enable and use the RabbitMQ management console¶
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management
chown -R rabbitmq:rabbitmq /var/lib/rabbitmq/
Create user¶
Replace rmqadminuser with your chosen username and rmqadminuserpassword with your desired password.
rabbitmqctl add_user rmqadminuser rmqadminuserpassword
rabbitmqctl set_user_tags rmqadminuser administrator
rabbitmqctl set_permissions -p / mqadmin ".*" ".*" ".*"
