### RabbitMQ Streamliner Classes ###
####################################


###  Install Python modules using pip3:

$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Be sure to update requirements.txt when new package dependencies are added.


### (Optional) If you wish to use virtualenv:

$ virtualenv -p python3 .

and then:

$ source bin/activate


### Setup local RabbitMQ broker with Docker:

$ docker pull rabbitmq

$ docker run --hostname my-rabbit --name some-rabbit -p 8080:15672 -p 5672:5672 rabbitmq:3-management

Access the management UI at:  http://localhost:8080
The RabbitMQ instance will listen on default port 5672 and we map/expose this
port outside the container to 5672.

The necessary exchanges and queues can be set up using the management UI.
The basic steps are:

1. Make an exchange called 'exchange1'.
2. Make 2 queues: 'exchange1.request' and 'exchange1.result'.
3. Add the necessary bindings to each queue.  For example, the 'exchange1.result'
queue needs the following binding:
From exchange: 'exchange1'
Routing key: 'exchange1.result'


### Make a version of config_rabbitmq.py

For local testing using a RabbitMQ instance conforming to the Docker image
defaults, simply make a copy of the example in the repository:

$ cp config_rabbitmq.example.py config_rabbitmq.py


### Run the code:

You need to write code that instantiates producer and consumer objects as needed.
