Watership

Watership is a wrapper around Bunny. It attempts to catch connection issues to the RabbitMQ server and provide a fake backend, switching back to the real backend when it becomes available.

It is currently being used in production on a set of applications, but be warned that it's still early in its life.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'watership'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install watership

Usage

This is meant for our specific use case, but if you want to give it a go....

Once you've required it, you configure Watership with:

Watership.config = '[AMQP URI]'

Optionally, you can set a logger (Watership.logger = ...) and specify the environment (Watership.environment = ...).

Then, connect to your RabbitMQ instance with:

Watership.reconnect

Finally, you push messages like this:

Watership.enqueue(name: 'queue name', message: 'message to enqueue')
