As with my previous blogs, we use a local docker desktop kubernetes set up and helm to install the capability.
Use helm to install rabbitmq onto K8s.
helm install — name rab — set auth.username=admin,auth.password=admin,metrics.enabled=true stable/rabbitmq
Fix the password to this (note: rabbitmq does not like short passwords, it will accept them in this setting but you won’t be able to login).
helm upgrade — set auth.username=admin,auth.password=secretpassword,metrics.enabled=true rab bitnami/rabbitmq
Otherwise the default username is user and the password can beobtained as follows:
echo “Password : $(kubectl get secret rab-rabbitmq -o jsonpath=”{.data.rabbitmq-password}” | base64 — decode)”
RabbitMQ can be accessed within the cluster on
rab-rabbitmq.default.svc.cluster.local
To access from outside the cluster, perform the following steps:
To access the RabbitMQ AMQP port:
kubectl port-forward svc/rab-rabbitmq 5672:5672
echo “URL : amqp://127.0.0.1:5672/”
To access the RabbitMQ management interface:
kubectl port-forward svc/rab-rabbitmq 15672:15672
#kubernetes #spring-boot #rabbitmq
