amqp-plus v1.1.0

AMQP Plus

amqp-plus is a wrapper for the original npm amqplib library which add more functionalities.

Features

• Promise based
• Message acknowledgement functions on message itself

• Thanks to amqp-connection-manager:

  • Automatically reconnect when your amqplib broker dies in a fire.
  • Round-robin connections between multiple brokers in a cluster.
  • If messages are sent while the broker is unavailable, queues messages in memory until we reconnect.

npm install amqp-plus
