This topic describes how a Java Message Service (JMS) client connects to Message Queue for RabbitMQ and send and receive messages in point-to-point (P2P) mode in the scenario where a pair of username and password is used for authentication. The username and password are generated by using the AccessKey pair of your Alibaba Cloud account or a Resource Access Management (RAM) user within the account.
Prerequisites
- Message Queue for RabbitMQ is activated. For more information, see Activate Message Queue for RabbitMQ.
- Create an instance
- Create a vhost
Background information
- JMS P2P
The JMS point-to-point (P2P) messaging model has the following features:
- Each message has only one consumer. After a producer sends a message to a queue, a
specified consumer registered for the queue can receive the message.
- Producers and consumers have no timing dependencies. Producers can send messages to queues regardless of whether consumers are active. Consumers can receive messages from queues regardless of whether producers are active.
- Each message has only one consumer. After a producer sends a message to a queue, a
specified consumer registered for the queue can receive the message.
- If an open source RabbitMQ client needs to access Alibaba Cloud services, you must
use the AccessKey ID and AccessKey secret of your Alibaba Cloud account or a Resource
Access Management (RAM) user within the account to generate a pair of username and
password. In the code of open source RabbitMQ SDK, set the userName parameter to the generated username and set the passWord parameter to the generated password. Message Queue for RabbitMQ authenticates the RabbitMQ client by using the pair of username and password.
Notice If you use an SDK to send or receive messages on your client, we recommend that you use persistent connections. This way, the client does not need to establish connections every time you use the client to send or receive messages. Frequent creation of connections consumes a large number of network and broker resources and may even trigger protection against SYN flood attacks on the broker. For more information, see Connection.
Messaging process

Obtain an endpoint
You must obtain an endpoint of your instance in the Message Queue for RabbitMQ console. Before you send and receive messages, you must specify the endpoint in the code of the producer and consumer. Then, the producer and consumer can access the Message Queue for RabbitMQ instance by using the endpoint.
Add JMS dependencies
Add the following dependencies to the pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.rabbitmq</groupId>
<artifactId>amqp-client</artifactId>
<version>5.5.0</version> <!-- All versions of open source RabbitMQ are supported. -->
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.alibaba.mq-amqp.jms</groupId>
<artifactId>mq-amqp-jms-client</artifactId>
<version>1.11.2-1.0.0</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>com.rabbitmq</groupId>
<artifactId>amqp-client</artifactId>
</exclusion>

Generate a pair of username and password
For more information, see Create a static username/password pair.
Configure an ObjectMessage object
import java.io.Serializable;
public class Person implements Serializable{
private static final long serialVersionUID = -5809782578272943999L;
String name = null;
int age = 0;
String address =null;
public Person(String name, int age, String address){
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.address = address;
}
public String getName(){
return name;
}
public int getAge(){
return age;
}
public String getAddress(){
return address;
}
}
Send messages
Create, compile, and run the QueueSend.java class.
Parameter | Example | Description |
---|---|---|
hostName | 1880770****.mq-amqp.cn-hangzhou-a.aliyuncs.com | The endpoint of the Message Queue for RabbitMQ instance. In the Message Queue for RabbitMQ console, you can obtain the endpoint on the Instance Details page. |
Port | 5672 | The default port. Use port 5672 for non-encrypted connections and port 5671 for encrypted connections. |
userName | MjoxODgwNzcwODY5MD**** | The static username that is generated in the Message Queue for RabbitMQ console. Message Queue for RabbitMQ encodes the AccessKey pair of your Alibaba Cloud account or a RAM user within the account and the ID of the Message Queue for RabbitMQ instance in Base64 to obtain a static username. In the Message Queue for RabbitMQ console, you can obtain the static username on the Static Accounts page. |
passWord | NDAxREVDQzI2MjA0OT**** | The static password that is generated in the Message Queue for RabbitMQ console. Message Queue for RabbitMQ uses the HMAC-SHA1 algorithm to generate a signature based on the AccessKey secret of your Alibaba Cloud account or a RAM user within the account and the timestamp parameter, which indicates the current system time. Then, Message Queue for RabbitMQ encodes the signature and the timestamp parameter in Base64 to obtain a static password. In the Message Queue for RabbitMQ console, you can obtain the static password on the Static Accounts page. |
virtualHost | Test | The vhost that you created in the Message Queue for RabbitMQ instance. In the Message Queue for RabbitMQ console, you can view the vhost on the vhosts page. For more information about how to view a vhost, see View vhost details. |
