RabbitMQ settings

In case of RabbitMQ, the file is compose/docker-compose.override.yml-rabbitmq. This file must be copied into the root of the Devilbox git directory.

What	How and where
Example compose file	`compose/docker-compose.override.yml-all` or `compose/docker-compose.override.yml-rabbitmq`
Container IP address	`172.16.238.210`
Container host name	`rabbit`
Container name	`rabbit`
Mount points	`./data/rabbit` (can be changed via `.env`)
Exposed port	`5672` and `15672` (can be changed via `.env`)
Available at	`http://localhost:15672` (Admin WebUI)
Further configuration	none

RabbitMQ env variables

Additionally the following .env variables can be created for easy configuration:

Variable	Default value	Description
`HOST_PORT_RABBIT`	`5672`	Controls the host port on which RabbitMQ API will be available at.
`HOST_PORT_RABBIT_MGMT`	`15672`	Controls the host port on which RabbitMQ Admin WebUI will be available at.
`RABBIT_SERVER`	`management`	Controls the RabbitMQ version to use.
`HOST_PATH_RABBIT_DATADIR`	`./data/rabbit`	Default mount point for persistent data.
`RABBIT_DEFAULT_VHOST`	`my_vhost`	Default RabbitMQ vhost name. (not a webserver vhost name)
`RABBIT_DEFAULT_USER`	`guest`	Default username for Admin WebUI.
`RABBIT_DEFAULT_PASS`	`guest`	Default password for Admin WebUI.

Instructions

1. Copy docker-compose.override.yml

Copy the RabbitMQ Docker Compose overwrite file into the root of the Devilbox git directory. (It must be at the same level as the default docker-compose.yml file).

host> cp compose/docker-compose.override.yml-rabbitmq docker-compose.override.yml

* docker_compose_override_yml * add_your_own_docker_image * overwrite_existing_docker_image

2. Adjust `.env` settings (optional)

RabbitMQ is using sane defaults, which can be changed by adding variables to the .env file and assigning custom values.

Add the following variables to .env and adjust them to your needs:

# RabbitMQ version to choose
#RABBIT_SERVER=3.6
#RABBIT_SERVER=3.6-management
#RABBIT_SERVER=3.7
#RABBIT_SERVER=3.7-management
#RABBIT_SERVER=latest
RABBIT_SERVER=management

RABBIT_DEFAULT_VHOST=my_vhost
RABBIT_DEFAULT_USER=guest
RABBIT_DEFAULT_PASS=guest

HOST_PORT_RABBIT=5672
HOST_PORT_RABBIT_MGMT=15672
HOST_PATH_RABBIT_DATADIR=./data/rabbit

4. Start the Devilbox

The final step is to start the Devilbox with RabbitMQ.

Let's assume you want to start php, httpd, bind, rabbit.

host> docker-compose up -d php httpd bind rabbitmq

TL;DR

For the lazy readers, here are all commands required to get you started. Simply copy and paste the following block into your terminal from the root of your Devilbox git directory:

# Copy compose-override.yml into place
cp compose/docker-compose.override.yml-rabbitmq docker-compose.override.yml

# Create .env variable
echo "# RabbitMQ version to choose"           >> .env
echo "#RABBIT_SERVER=3.6"                     >> .env
echo "#RABBIT_SERVER=3.6-management"          >> .env
echo "#RABBIT_SERVER=3.7"                     >> .env
echo "#RABBIT_SERVER=3.7-management"          >> .env
echo "#RABBIT_SERVER=latest"                  >> .env
echo "RABBIT_SERVER=management"               >> .env
echo "RABBIT_DEFAULT_VHOST=my_vhost"          >> .env
echo "RABBIT_DEFAULT_USER=guest"              >> .env
echo "RABBIT_DEFAULT_PASS=guest"              >> .env
echo "HOST_PORT_RABBIT=5672"                  >> .env
echo "HOST_PORT_RABBIT_MGMT=15672"            >> .env
echo "HOST_PATH_RABBIT_DATADIR=./data/rabbit" >> .env

# Start container
docker-compose up -d php httpd bind rabbit
