Virgil Spring Boot Starter

OSS Lifecycle

Virgil is a Spring Boot Starter that is developed as a Spring Boot Admin extension and serves as a generic message manager. It supports RabbitMQ with actions such as count/display/republish/drop messages on the queue.

For future releases we will consider adding in additional actions such as download/etc along with Kafka support.

Virgil implements a collection of Actuator endpoints to support the queue actions, it also provides UI as Admin extension to interact with those Actuator endpoints.

Name reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgil

List of settings you can configure in application.yml

  • virgil
    • queues
      • <queue>
        • readName
        • readBinderName
        • [Optional] republishName
        • [Optional] republishBinderName
        • [Optional] republishBindingRoutingKey
    • binders
      • <binderName>
        • name
        • type: rabbit
        • rabbitProperties
          • [Optional] addresses
          • [Optional] host

          • username
          • password
          • [Optional] virtual-host

Example with Single DLQ:

virgil:
  queues:
    virgilDlq:
      readName: virgil-dlq
      readBinderName: virgilExchange
      republishName: virgil-queue
      republishBinderName: virgilExchange
      republishBindingRoutingKey: test.#
  binders:
    virgilExchange:
      name: virgil-exchange
      type: rabbit
      rabbitProperties:
        host: virgil-rabbit
        port: 5672
        username: guest
        password: guest
        virtual-host: /

Example with Many DLQs:

virgil:
  queues:
    virgilDlq:
      readName: virgil-dlq
      readBinderName: virgilExchange
      republishName: virgil-queue
      republishBinderName: virgilExchange
      republishBindingRoutingKey: test.#
    virgilDlq2:
      readName: virgil-queue
      readBinderName: virgilExchange
      republishName: virgil-dlq
      republishBinderName: virgilExchange
      republishBindingRoutingKey: dlq.#
  binders:
    virgilExchange:
      name: virgil-exchange
      type: rabbit
      rabbitProperties:
        host: virgil-rabbit
        port: 5672
        username: guest
        password: guest
        virtual-host: /

Configuration Details

  • binders.<binderName>.rabbitSetings: if addresses is provided it will be used as priority over host and port. If addresses is blank, host and port will be used. Port will default to 5672.

  • queues.queue: if republishName and republishBinderName is not present, we will disable republish option per message

  • If you are using Spring Cloud Stream:

    • If you configure spring.cloud.stream.rabbit.bindings.input.consumer.auto-bind-dlq=true and spring.cloud.stream.bindings.input.group=myGroup, the format of your DLQ should be input.myGroup.dlq;
