Hey,
is there a plan to support rabbitmq amqp 1.0 library?

[csp1992]

Hello, I have the same question. There is a official support of amqp 1.0 in spring boot 3?. Any plans of support in this library?

[artembilan]

According to some resources in the Internet we can use JMS auto-configuration in Spring Boot to talk to AMQP 1.0 protocol: https://github.com/amqphub/amqp-10-jms-spring-boot/tree/main/amqp-10-jms-spring-boot-examples.

We don't deny this issue since it would bring a Spring-friendly API over the mentioned rabbitmq-amqp-java-client library.

Hi @artembilan, as mention above, I am willing to handle this issue. Do you know if this issue already started?

[artembilan]

Yes, my plan is to start looking into this from next Monday.
However you are free to share your vision for this new module:

1. What its name?
2. How do we manage connection(s)?
3. Do you foresee Amqp10Template (similar to RabbitTemplate) implementation?
4. What is your thought about @RabbitListener support? Or we might have an @Amqp10Listener instead?

I'm opened for any suggestions

Thank you!

OK. I have started working on this.
So far I have:

1. Module name is spring-rabbitmq-client - we kinda anticipate that this one would be a default in the future with slow 0.9.1 support sunset.
2. I wrote AmqpConnectionFactoryBean to manage AMQP connection object in Spring manner. This is the most important and shared component between the rest of the API.
3. The RabbitAmqpAdmin - similar to RabbitAdmin, but with the logic based on the AMQP 1.0 client. We cannot live without topology, so it is better to have it automatically initialized from respective Declarable beans like we do for 0.9.1 support.
4. Have started RabbitAmqpTemplate for the Spring-friendly Publisher API.

Wanted to push and share already, but stuck with so much code to do.
Therefore expect something from me in the nearest future. Maybe tomorrow/after tomorrow.

I'm keeping an eye on this effort.

It looks like Quarkus already supports AMQP 1.0.

I was hoping this client could be used to access other AMQP 1.0-enabled products, such as Azure Service Bus. Is that out of scope? RabbitAmqpTemplate sounds like it's for RabbitMQ.

[artembilan]

That’s correct, @making .
This module is based on the RabbitMQ Java client for only RabbitMQ AMQP 1.0 support.
There is no guarantee that it may work with other AMQP 1.0 providers.

We always recommended to use JMS API to communicate with AMQP 1.0 brokers .
With our experience there is just no reason for paradox of choice adding extra generic AMQP 1.0 capabilities to Spring.

So, I have just pushed spring-rabbitmq-client module with few important classes:

1. AmqpConnectionFactoryBean to expose Connection object configuration in Spring manner. Requires Environment from RabbitMQ AMQP Client.
2. RabbitAmqpAdmin implements AmqpAdmin for API to handle topology in Spring manner. The most important part that it can deal with Declarable bean. Just exactly similar to the RabbitAdmin, but over AMQP 1.0 protocol with RabbitMQ.
3. RabbitAmqpTemplate with async send and receive operation implementations (for now).
