Node-RED Contrib AMQP

This repository provides a set of Node-RED nodes for interacting with RabbitMQ and other AMQP-compliant message brokers. It is a fork of @Stormpass/node-red-contrib-amqp, adapted to work with modern RabbitMQ features like Quorum Queues.

Features

• AMQP In: Consume messages from a queue.
• AMQP Out: Publish messages to an exchange.
• AMQP In Manual Ack: Consume messages with manual acknowledgment.
• Dynamic Virtual Host: Change the vhost at runtime for the amqp-out node by setting msg.vhost.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20 or newer
• Node-RED 4.0 or newer

Installation

You can install the nodes using the Node-RED Palette Manager or by running the following command in your Node-RED user directory (typically ~/.node-red):

npm install @frankvdb/node-red-contrib-amqp

Usage

After installation, the following nodes will be available in your Node-RED editor:

• amqp-in
• amqp-out
• amqp-in-manual-ack
• amqp-broker (configuration node)

For more detailed information, please see the Node Help section in the Node-RED editor.
