# Flux AMQP
Interface to connect to AMQP broker, sending and retrieving messages.
It uses `AMQP`, check their documentation to understand
how this library perform the connection, configuration, consumption and delivery of
AMQP messages.
## Usage
Add [Flux AMQP](https://hex.pm/packages/flux_amqp) as a dependency in your
`mix.exs` file:
```elixir
def deps do
[{:flux_amqp, "~> 0.0.2"}]
end
```
`FluxAMQP` describes how to define and close a connection and how to send a message.
`FluxAMQP.Consumer` describes how to consume AMQP messages.
## Application Configuration
```elixir
import Config
# Default values
config :flux_amqp,
broker: [
uri: "amqp://guest:guest@rabbitmq",
connection: [
reattempt_connection_on_failure?: true,
reattempt: [
maximum_attempts: :infinity,
waiting_ms: 10_000
]
]
],
routing_keys: []
```
### Configuration Options
- `:broker` - Set the AMQP broker. Options are:
- `:uri` - The AMQP Broker URI. Defaults to `amqp://guest:guest@rabbitmq`.
- `:connection` - Set the AMQP broker connection. Options are:
- `:reattempt_connection_on_failure?` - If `true`, when a connection to AMQP
broker fails, a reattempt will be performed. Defaults to `true`
- `:reattempt` - Set the reattempt settings. Options are:
- `:maximum_attempts` - How many attempts should be performed in case of
connection failure. If set to `:infinity`, it will try until connection
succeeds. Defaults to `:infinity`.
- `:waiting_ms` - How many milliseconds should wait before reattempting
connection. Defaults to `10_000`.
- `:routing_keys` - The AMQP routing keys which the messages will be consumed.
If a routing key can be defined as a tuple `{routing_key, exchange}` or as
the routing_key string (the exchange will be set to `amq.topic`).
Defaults to an empty list. Check `AMQP.Exchange.declare/4` for more
information about exchange definition.
