Configure message queues

The message queue topology is a Magento Commerce feature. It can be included as part of Magento Commerce installation, or you can add it existing modules.

Overview

Configuring the message queue topology involves creating and modifying the following configuration files in the <module>/etc directory:

communication.xml - Defines aspects of the message queue system that all communication types have in common.
queue_consumer.xml - Defines the relationship between an existing queue and its consumer.
queue_topology.xml - Defines the message routing rules and declares queues and exchanges.
queue_publisher.xml - Defines the exchange where a topic is published.

Use Cases

Depending on your needs, you may only need to create and configure communication.xml and one or two of these files.

If you only want to publish to an existing queue created by a 3rd party system, you will only need the queue_publisher.xml file.
If you only want to consume from an existing queue, you will only need the queue_consumer.xml config file.
In cases where you want to configure the local queue and publish to it for 3rd party systems to consume, you will need the queue_publisher.xml and queue_topology.xml files.
When you want to configure the local queue and consume messages published by 3rd party system, you will need the queue_topology.xml and queue_consumer.xml files.

`communication.xml`

The <module>/etc/communication.xml file defines aspects of the message queue system that all communication types have in common. This release supports AMQP and database connections.

Sample `communication.xml` file

The following sample defines two synchronous topics. The first topic is for RPC calls. The second uses a custom service interface.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework-message-queue:etc/queue.xsd">
  <topic name="synchronous.rpc.test" request="string" response="string">
    <handler name="processRpcRequest" type="Magento\TestModuleSynchronousAmqp\Model\RpcRequestHandler" method="process"/>
  </topic>
  <topic name="magento.testModuleSynchronousAmqp.api.serviceInterface.execute" schema="Magento\TestModuleSynchronousAmqp\Api\ServiceInterface::execute">
    <handler name="processRemoteRequest" type="Magento\TestModuleSynchronousAmqp\Model\RpcRequestHandler" method="process"/>
  </topic>
</config>

topic element

Topic configuration is flexible in that you can switch the transport layer for topics at deployment time. These values can be overwritten in the env.php file.

The name parameter is required. The topic definition must include either a request or a schema. Use schema if you want to implement a custom service interface. Otherwise, specify request. If request is specified, then also specify response if the topic is synchronous.

Parameter	Description
name	A string that uniquely identifies the topic. A topic name should be a series of strings that are separated by periods. The leftmost string should be the most general, and each string afterward should narrow the scope. For example, to describe actions for tending to pets, you might create names such as `cat.white.feed` and `dog.retriever.walk`. Wildcards are not supported in the `communication.xml` file.
request	Specifies the data type of the topic.
response	Specifies the format of the response. This parameter is required if you are defining a synchronous topic. Omit this parameter if you are defining an asynchronous topic.
schema	The interface that describes the structure of the message. The format must be `<module>\Api\<ServiceName>::<methodName>`.

handler element

The handler element specifies the class where the logic for handling messages exists and the method it executes.

Parameter	Description
name	A string that uniquely defines the handler. The name can be derived from the topic name if the handler is specific to the topic. If the handler provides more generic capabilities, name the handler so that it describes those capabilities.
type	The class or interface that defines the handler.
method	The method this handler executes.
disabled	Determines whether this handler is disabled. The default value is `false`.

`queue_consumer.xml`

The queue_consumer.xml file contains one or more consumer elements:

Example `queue_consumer` file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework-message-queue:etc/queue_consumer.xsd">
    <consumer name="basic.consumer" queue="basic.consumer.queue" handler="LoggerClass::log"/>
    <consumer name="synchronous.rpc.test" queue="synchronous.rpc.test.queue" handler="LoggerClass::log"/>
    <consumer name="rpc.test" queue="queue.for.rpc.test.unused.queue" consumerInstance="Magento\Framework\MessageQueue\BatchConsumer" connection="amqp"/>
</config>

`consumer` element

Attribute	Description
name (required)	The name of the consumer.
queue (required)	Defines the queue name to send the message to.
handler	Specifies the class and method that processes the message. The value must be specified in the format `<Vendor>\Module\<ServiceName>::<methodName>`.
consumerInstance	The Magento class name that consumes the message
connection	For AMQP connections, the connection name must match the `connection` attribute in the `queue_topology.xml` file. Otherwise, the connection name must be `db`.
maxMessages	Specifies the maximum number of messages to consume.

`queue_topology.xml`

The queue_topology.xml file defines the message routing rules and declares queues and exchanges. It contains the following elements:

exchange
exchange/binding(optional)
exchange/arguments (optional)
exchange/binding/arguments (optional)

Example `queue_topology.xml` file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework-message-queue:etc/queue_topology.xsd">
  <exchange name="magento-topic-based-exchange1" type="topic" connection="db">
    <binding id="topicBasedRouting2" topic="anotherTopic" destinationType="queue" destination="topic-queue1">
        <arguments>
            <!--Not part of our use case, but will be processed if someone specifies them-->
            <argument name="argument1" xsi:type="string">value</argument>
        </arguments>
    </binding>
    <arguments>
        <argument name="alternate-exchange" xsi:type="string">magento-log-exchange</argument>
    </arguments>
  </exchange>
  <exchange name="magento-topic-based-exchange2" type="topic" connection="db">
    <binding id="topicBasedRouting1" topic="#" destinationType="queue" destination="topic-queue2"/>
    <arguments>
      <argument name="alternate-exchange" xsi:type="string">magento-log-exchange</argument>

durable	Boolean value indicating whether the exchange is persistent. Non-durable exchanges are purged when the server restarts. The default is `true`.
autoDelete	Boolean value indicating whether the exchange is deleted when all queues have finished using it. The default is `false`.
internal	Boolean value. If set to true, the exchange may not be used directly by publishers, but only when bound to other exchanges. The default is `false`.

`binding` element

The binding element is a subnode of the exchange element.

Attribute	Description
id (required)	A unique ID for this binding.

    <argument name="warehouseId" xsi:type="int">1</argument>
    <argument name="carrierName" xsi:type="string">USPS</argument>
</arguments>

`queue_publisher.xml`

The queue_publisher.xml file defines which connection and exchange to use to publish messages for a specific topic. It contains the following elements:

publisher
publisher/connection
