Overview

Channels in RabbitMQ

To quote AMQP 0.9.1 specification:

AMQP 0.9.1 is a multi-channelled protocol. Channels provide a way to multiplex a heavyweight TCP/IP connection into several light weight connections. This makes the protocol more “firewall friendly” since port usage is predictable. It also means that traffic shaping and other network QoS features can be easily employed. Channels are independent of each other and can perform different functions simultaneously with other channels, the available bandwidth being shared between the concurrent activities.

Opening Channels

Channels can be opened either via Bunny::Session#create_channel (sufficient in the majority of cases) or by instantiating Bunny::Channel directly:

conn = Bunny.new
conn.start

ch   = conn.create_channel

This will automatically allocate a channel id.

Closing Channels

Channels are closed via #close. Channels that get a channel-level exception are closed, too. Closed channels can no longer be used. Attempts to use them will raise ChannelAlreadyClosed.

ch = conn.create_channel
ch.close

Higher-level API

Bunny offers two sets of methods on Channel: known as higher-level and lower-level APIs, respectively. Higher-level API mimics amqp gem API where exchanges and queues are objects (instance of Exchange and Queue, respectively). Lower-level API is built around AMQP 0.9.1 methods (commands), where queues and exchanges are passed as strings (à la RabbitMQ Java client, Langohr and Pika).

Queue Operations In Higher-level API

  • #queue is used to declare queues. The rest of the API is in Queue.

Exchange Operations In Higher-level API

Channel Qos (Prefetch Level)

It is possible to control how many messages at most a consumer will be given (before it acknowledges or rejects previously consumed ones). This setting is per channel and controlled via #prefetch.

Channel IDs

Channels are identified by their ids which are integers. Bunny takes care of allocating and releasing them as channels are opened and closed. It is almost never necessary to specify channel ids explicitly.

There is a limit on the maximum number of channels per connection, usually 65536. Note that allocating channels is very cheap on both client and server so having tens, hundreds or even thousands of channels is not a problem.

Channels and Error Handling

Channel-level exceptions are more common than connection-level ones and often indicate issues applications can recover from (such as consuming from or trying to delete a queue that does not exist).

With Bunny, channel-level exceptions are raised as Ruby exceptions, for example, NotFound, that provide access to the underlying channel.close method information.

Examples:

Handling 404 NOT_FOUND

begin
  ch.queue_delete("queue_that_should_not_exist#{rand}")
rescue Bunny::NotFound => e
  puts "Channel-level exception! Code: #{e.channel_close.reply_code}, message: #{e.channel_close.reply_text}"
end

Handling 406 PRECONDITION_FAILED

begin
  ch2 = conn.create_channel
  q   = "bunny.examples.recovery.q#{rand}"

  ch2.queue_declare(q, :durable => false)
  ch2.queue_declare(q, :durable => true)
rescue Bunny::PreconditionFailed => e
  puts "Channel-level exception! Code: #{e.channel_close.reply_code}, message: #{e.channel_close.reply_text}"
ensure
  conn.create_channel.queue_delete(q)
end

#basic_get(queue, opts = {:manual_ack => true}) ⇒ Array

Synchronously fetches a message from the queue, if there are any. This method is for cases when the convenience of synchronous operations is more important than throughput.

Examples:

Using Bunny::Channel#basic_get with manual acknowledgements

conn = Bunny.new
conn.start
ch   = conn.create_channel
# here we assume the queue already exists and has messages
delivery_info, properties, payload = ch.basic_get("bunny.examples.queue1", :manual_ack => true)
ch.acknowledge(delivery_info.delivery_tag)

Parameters:

  • queue (String) —

    Queue name

  • opts (Hash) (defaults to: {:manual_ack => true}) —

    Options

Options Hash (opts):

  • :ack (Boolean) — default: true —

    [DEPRECATED] Use :manual_ack instead

  • :manual_ack (Boolean) — default: true —

    Will this message be acknowledged manually?

Returns:

  • (Array) —

    A triple of delivery info, message properties and message content

#basic_nack(delivery_tag, multiple = false, requeue = false) ⇒ NilClass

Rejects or requeues messages just like #basic_reject but can do so with multiple messages at once.

Examples:

Requeue a message

conn  = Bunny.new
conn.start

ch    = conn.create_channel
q.subscribe do |delivery_info, properties, payload|
  # requeue the message
  ch.basic_nack(delivery_info.delivery_tag, false, true)
end

Reject a message

conn  = Bunny.new
conn.start

ch    = conn.create_channel
q.subscribe do |delivery_info, properties, payload|
  # requeue the message
  ch.basic_nack(delivery_info.delivery_tag)
end

Requeue a message fetched via basic.get

conn  = Bunny.new
conn.start

ch    = conn.create_channel
# we assume the queue exists and has messages
delivery_info, properties, payload = ch.basic_get("bunny.examples.queue3", :manual_ack => true)
ch.basic_nack(delivery_info.delivery_tag, false, true)

Requeue multiple messages fetched via basic.get

conn  = Bunny.new
conn.start

ch    = conn.create_channel
# we assume the queue exists and has messages
_, _, payload1 = ch.basic_get("bunny.examples.queue3", :manual_ack => true)
_, _, payload2 = ch.basic_get("bunny.examples.queue3", :manual_ack => true)
delivery_info, properties, payload3 = ch.basic_get("bunny.examples.queue3", :manual_ack => true)
# requeue all fetched messages up to payload3
ch.basic_nack(delivery_info.delivery_tag, true, true)

Parameters:

  • delivery_tag (Integer) —

    Delivery tag obtained from delivery info

  • requeue (Boolean) (defaults to: false) —

    Should the message be requeued?

  • multiple (Boolean) (defaults to: false) —

    Should all deliveries up to this one be rejected/requeued?

Returns:

  • (NilClass) —

    nil

#basic_qos(prefetch_count, global = false) ⇒ AMQ::Protocol::Basic::QosOk Also known as: prefetch

Controls message delivery rate using basic.qos AMQP 0.9.1 method.

Parameters:

  • prefetch_count (Integer) —

    How many messages can consumers on this channel be given at a time (before they have to acknowledge or reject one of the earlier received messages)

  • global (Boolean) (defaults to: false) —

    Whether to use global mode for prefetch:

    • +false+: per-consumer
    • +true+: per-channel Note that the default value (+false+) hasn't actually changed, but previous documentation described that as meaning per-channel and unsupported in RabbitMQ, whereas it now actually appears to mean per-consumer and supported (https://www.rabbitmq.com/consumer-prefetch.html).

Returns:

  • (AMQ::Protocol::Basic::QosOk) —

    RabbitMQ response

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

Requeue a message fetched via basic.get

#channel_flow(active) ⇒ AMQ::Protocol::Channel::FlowOk

Note:

Recent (e.g. 2.8.x., 3.x) RabbitMQ will employ TCP/IP-level back pressure on publishers if it detects that consumers do not keep up with them.

Enables or disables message flow for the channel. When message flow is disabled, no new messages will be delivered to consumers on this channel. This is typically used by consumers that cannot keep up with the influx of messages.

Returns:

  • (AMQ::Protocol::Channel::FlowOk) —

    Queue properties and other options. Durability, exclusivity, auto-deletion options will be ignored.
