Usage

Generally, as a comand line program, usage is:

amqpctl [options]

General options or configuration

-s host, --server host

-u username, --username username (default: guest)

-p password, --password password (default: guest)

The above options are required, as they give the coordinates of the AMQP server and the login credentials

-e name, --exchange name (default: test_exchange)

-t type, --type type (default: direct)

For manipulation of exchanges, the exchange name and exchange type are required. Exchange type can be either direct or fanout.

-q name, --queue name (default: test_queue)

For manipulation of queues, the queue name is required.

Actions, manipulation of exchanges and queues

Quite purposefully, these are all long options to prevent potentially disastrous typeos with short options.

--delete-exchange

--declare-exchange

--delete-queue

--declare-queue

--purge-queue
