A realtime in browser viewer for AMQP messages

• Clojure

• Javascript

• Websockets

• sammy.js

• Create temporary queues to view messages on your chosen exchange and routing key.
• New messages are displayed in real-time and json is nicely formatted and highlighted.
• Remembers previous queues.
• Uses web-socket-js for browsers without native websockets but with flash

Run

• Download and extract queue-viewer-0.2-SNAPSHOT.tar.bz2

• cd to the directory

• type:

    java -server -jar queue-viewer-0.2-SNAPSHOT-standalone.jar --rabbithost myrabbitserver --webport 9090 --staticdir /path-to-app/public
  

• go to http://localhost:9090 in a browser

• click "All test"

• click "Send test message" to test

Dev

• Clojure 1.1
• Jetty 7.2
• compojure with this patch applied to make it work with Jetty 7
• jquery 1.4+
• sammy.js
• prettify.js
• web-socket-js

I needed a nice way to view messages from various places and thought it would be a good way to try a proper clojure app and to experiment with websockets, instead of using python.
