AnyEvent::RabbitMQ::Channel(3)

NAME
AnyEvent::RabbitMQ::Channel - Abstraction of an AMQP channel.

SYNOPSIS
    my $ch = $rf->open_channel();
    $ch->declare_exchange(exchange => 'test_exchange');

DESCRIPTION
A RabbitMQ channel.

A channel is a light-weight virtual connection within a TCP connection to a RabbitMQ broker.

ARGUMENTS FOR "open_channel"

on_close
    Callback invoked when the channel closes. Callback will be passed the incoming message that caused the close, if any.

on_return
    Callback invoked when a mandatory or immediate message publish fails. Callback will be passed the incoming message, with accessors "method_frame", "header_frame", and "body_frame".

METHODS

  declare_exchange (%args)
Declare an exchange (to publish messages to) on the server.

Arguments:

on_success
on_failure
type
    Default 'direct'

passive
    Default 0

durable
    Default 0

auto_delete
    Default 0

internal
    Default 0

exchange
    The name of the exchange

  bind_exchange
Binds an exchange to another exchange, with a routing key.

Arguments:

source
    The name of the source exchange to bind

destination
    The name of the destination exchange to bind

routing_key
    The routing key to bind with

  unbind_exchange

  delete_exchange

  declare_queue
Declare a queue, that is, create it if it doesn't exist yet.

Arguments:

queue
    Name of the queue to be declared. If the queue name is the empty string, RabbitMQ will create a unique name for the queue. This is useful for temporary/private reply queues.

on_success
    Callback that is called when the queue was declared successfully. The argument to the callback is of type Net::AMQP::Frame::Method. To get the name of the Queue (if you declared it with an empty name), you can say

        on_success => sub {
            my $method = shift;
            my $name   = $method->method_frame->queue;
        };

on_failure
    Callback that is called when the declaration of the queue has failed.

auto_delete
    0 or 1, default 0

passive
    0 or 1, default 0

durable
    0 or 1, default 0

exclusive
    0 or 1, default 0

no_ack
    0 or 1, default 1

ticket
    default 0

  bind_queue
Binds a queue to an exchange, with a routing key.

Arguments:

queue
    The name of the queue to bind

exchange
    The name of the exchange to bind

routing_key
    The routing key to bind with

  unbind_queue

  purge_queue
Flushes the contents of a queue.

  delete_queue
Deletes a queue. The queue may not have any active consumers.

  publish
Publish a message to an exchange

Arguments:

body
    The text body of the message to send.

header
    Customer headers for the message (if any).

exchange
    The name of the exchange to send the message to.

routing_key
    The routing key with which to publish the message.

on_ack
    Callback (if any) for confirming acknowledgment when in confirm mode.

  consume
Subscribe to consume messages from a queue.

Arguments:

queue
    The name of the queue to be consumed from.

on_consume
    Callback called with an argument of the message which has been consumed.

    The message is a hash reference, where the value to key "header" is an object of type Net::AMQP::Protocol::Basic::ContentHeader, body is a Net::AMQP::Frame::Body, and "deliver" a Net::AMQP::Frame::Method.

on_cancel
    Callback called if consumption is canceled. This may be at client request or as a side effect of queue deletion. (Notification of queue deletion is a RabbitMQ extension.)

consumer_tag
    Identifies this consumer, will be auto-generated if you do not provide it, but you must supply a value if you want to be able to later cancel the subscription.

on_success
    Callback called if the subscription was successful (before the first message is consumed).

on_failure
    Callback called if the subscription fails for any reason.

no_ack
    Pass through the "no_ack" flag. Defaults to 1. If set to 1, the server will not expect messages to be acknowledged.

  publish
Publish a message to an exchange.

Arguments:

header
    Hash of AMQP message header info, including the confusingly similar element "headers", which may contain arbitrary string key/value pairs.

body
    Message body.

mandatory
    Boolean; if true, then if the message doesn't land in a queue (e.g. the exchange has no bindings), it will be "returned." (see "on_return")

immediate
    Boolean; if true, then if the message cannot be delivered directly to a consumer, it will be "returned." (see "on_return")

on_ack
    Callback called with the frame that acknowledges receipt (if channel is in confirm mode), typically Net::AMQP::Protocol::Basic::Ack.

on_nack
    Callback called with the frame that declines receipt (if the channel is in confirm mode), typically Net::AMQP::Protocol::Basic::Nack or Net::AMQP::Protocol::Channel::Close.

on_return
    In AMQP, a "returned" message is one that cannot be delivered in compliance with the "immediate" or "mandatory" flags.

    If in confirm mode, this callback will be called with the frame that reports message return, typically Net::AMQP::Protocol::Basic::Return. If confirm mode is off or this callback is not provided, then the channel or connection objects' on_return callbacks (if any), will be called instead.

    NOTE: If confirm mode is on, the on_ack or on_nack callback will be called whether or not on_return is called first.

  cancel
Cancel a queue subscription.

Note that the cancellation will not take place at once, and further messages may be consumed before the subscription is cancelled. No further messages will be consumed after the on_success callback has been called.

Arguments:

consumer_tag
    Identifies this consumer, needs to be the value supplied when the queue is initially consumed from.

on_success
    Callback called if the subscription was successfully cancelled.

on_failure
    Callback called if the subscription could not be cancelled for any reason.

  get
Try to get a single message from a queue.

Arguments:

queue
    Mandatory. Name of the queue to try to receive a message from.

on_success
    Will be called either with either a message, or, if the queue is empty, a notification that there was nothing to collect from the queue.

on_failure
    This callback will be called if an error is signalled on this channel.

  ack

  qos

  confirm
Put channel into confirm mode. In confirm mode, publishes are confirmed by the server, so the on_ack callback of publish works.

  recover

  select_tx

  commit_tx

  rollback_tx
