RabbitMQ Messaging using HTTP

Instructions

In order to run the messaging service, make sure you have Docker installed. This is required for our RabbitMQ instance, which is used by the messaging service.

In the root directory of the project, run the following:

rabbit-messaging $   export GO111MODULE=on
rabbit-messaging $   make

This command builds Go executables for Mac, Linux and Windows environments. Build the RabbitMQ Docker image:

rabbit-messaging $   docker build -t rabbit_rabbit .

Run the Docker container:

rabbit-messaging $   docker run -it -h guest -e RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER=guest -e RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS=guest -p 15672:15672 -p 5671:5671 -p 5672:5672 -p 15671:15671 -p 25672:25672 -p 1883:1883  -v /tmp/rabbitmq:/var/lib/rabbitmq rabbit_rabbit

Run the Go executable:

rabbit-messaging $  ./rabbit_msg_v1.0.0-mac

Test the server:

rabbit-messaging  $ curl -XPOST -d '{"username": "alex", "message": "an example message"}' http://localhost:12312/hello-channel1/messages

{"id":"2019-08-18T15:07:14.716023-07:00"}

rabbit-messaging  $ curl -GET http://localhost:12312/hello-channel1/messages

{
    "messages":
    [
        {"username":"test1","message":"test1 message","id":"2019-08-18T14:53:46.127964-07:00"},

        ...

        {"username":"alex","message":"an example message","id":"2019-08-18T15:07:14.716023-07:00"}
    ]
}

rabbit-messaging  $ curl -GET http://localhost:12312/hello-channel1/messages?last_id=2019-08-18T14:55:53.859255-07:00

{
    "messages":
    [
        {"username":"regex5","message":"regex test5","id":"2019-08-18T14:55:53.859255-07:00"},

        {"username":"alex","message":"an example message","id":"2019-08-18T15:07:14.716023-07:00"}
    ]
}
