Spring Boot and Messaging Queue - [Rabbit MQ] using Docker

Spring Boot [Publisher- Subscriber] - Rabbit MQ using Docker

RabbitMQ is an open-source message-broker software that originally implemented the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol and has since been extended with a plug-in architecture to support Streaming Text Oriented Messaging Protocol, MQ Telemetry Transport, and other protocols.

JMS[Java Message Service] is a service used to send messages between a subscriber and a publisher. The Publisher adds the message in a queue and a Subscriber[service] can access that message from the queue.

There are different Messaging services such as:-
1) Rabbit MQ
2) Active MQ
3) Feign Client
4) Kafka

We will be using Rabbit MQ for this project.

Docker is required to be installed on the machine.

Usage

MessagingConfig.java

@Configuration
public class MessagingConfig {
    @Bean
    public Queue queue() {
         return new Queue(Constants.QUEUE);
    }
    @Bean
    public TopicExchange exchange() {
        return new TopicExchange(Constants.EXCHANGE); 
    }
    @Bean   
    public Binding binding(Queue queue , TopicExchange exchange) {
        return BindingBuilder.bind(queue).to(exchange).with(Constants.ROUTING_KEY); 
    }

    @Bean
    public MessageConverter converter() {
        return new Jackson2JsonMessageConverter();
    }

    @Bean
    public AmqpTemplate template(ConnectionFactory connectionFactory) {
            final RabbitTemplate rabbitTemplate = new RabbitTemplate(connectionFactory);
            rabbitTemplate.setMessageConverter(converter());
            return rabbitTemplate;
    }
}

OrderPublisher.java

@RestController 
@RequestMapping("/order")
public class OrderPublisher {

    @Autowired
    private RabbitTemplate rabbitTemplate;

        @PostMapping("/{restaurantName}")
        public String bookOrder(@RequestBody Order order, @PathVariable String restaurantName ) {
            order.setOrderId(UUID.randomUUID().toString());
            OrderStatus orderStatus = new OrderStatus(order, "PROCESS", "Order Successfully Placed"+ restaurantName);

            rabbitTemplate.convertAndSend(Constants.EXCHANGE,Constants.ROUTING_KEY, orderStatus);
            return "success!!"; 
        }
}

User.java (consumer)

@Component
public class User {

    @RabbitListener(queues = Constants.QUEUE )
    public void consumeMessageFromQueue(OrderStatus orderStatus) {
        System.out.println("Message Received from queue: " +orderStatus );
    }
}

Constants.java

Constants are defined in the class.

public class Constants {
    public static final String QUEUE = "rabbit_queue";
    public static final String EXCHANGE = "rabbit_exchange";
    public static final String ROUTING_KEY = "rabbit_routingKey";
}
