This code connects to the UH Message Broker and consumes the messages described in UHIMS Events

Download the RabbitMQ Java client from http://www.rabbitmq.com/download.html (there should be libraries and examples for other languages there)

Here is a SampleUhimsConsumer.java you can try.

Replace the following with your own values:

yourRabbitMqUsernameHere
yourRabbitMqPasswordHere
yourQueueNameHere

esb-test.its.hawaii.edu with esb.hawaii.edu when your code is ready to use the production RabbitMQ service.

import java.io.*;
import java.security.*;
import com.rabbitmq.client.*;

public class SampleUhimsConsumer {

    private final static  String queueName    = "yourQueueNameHere";
    private final static boolean durable       = true;
    private final static boolean exclusive     = true;
    private final static boolean autoDelete    = false;
    private final static boolean autoAck       = false;     // we will ack each message ourselves
    private final static    long timeout       = 2*60*1000; // to exit after 2 minutes without messages

 public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {

    ConnectionFactory factory = new ConnectionFactory();

    factory.setHost("esb-test.its.hawaii.edu");
    factory.setPort(5671);
    factory.setVirtualHost("uhims");
    factory.setUsername("yourRabbitMqUsernameHere");
    factory.setPassword("yourRabbitMqPasswordHere");

    factory.useSslProtocol(); // Tells the library to setup the default Key and Trust managers for you
                              // which do not do any form of remote server trust verification

    Connection conn       = factory.newConnection();
    Channel    channel    = conn.createChannel();
    System.out.println(" [*] Waiting for messages. To exit press CTRL+C");
    QueueingConsumer consumer = new QueueingConsumer(channel);
    channel.basicConsume(queueName, autoAck, consumer);

    while (true) {
      QueueingConsumer.Delivery delivery = consumer.nextDelivery(timeout);
      if (delivery == null) {
        // stop consumer if no events arrive after timeout milliseconds
        conn.close();
      }
      else {
        // Your code processes the message here
        String message = new String(delivery.getBody());
        System.out.println(" [x] Received '" + message + "'");

        // If your code fails to acknowledge the message,
        // it will be redelivered.  This is a safety feature.
        // Refer to Message Acknowledgement section in
        // http://www.rabbitmq.com/tutorials/tutorial-two-java.html

        channel.basicAck(delivery.getEnvelope().getDeliveryTag(), false);
      }
    }
  }
}

To quickly compile and run the above, you could save the above code as SampleUhimsConsumer.java in the same directory where you downloaded the above Java client (we tried it with rabbitmq-java-client-bin-2.7.1):
- javac -cp rabbitmq-client.jar SampleUhimsConsumer.java
- java -cp .:commons-io-1.2.jar:commons-cli-1.1.jar:rabbitmq-client.jar SampleUhimsConsumer
That's it!
