RabbitMQ monitor

Build badge

This is a simple tool which monitors RabbitMQ queues and notifies via Slack (legacy webhooks) when certain thresholds are met.

Installation

This is published on crates.io so if you have cargo setup you can just do:

cargo install rmq_monitor

Options

    -c, --config <config>    Your TOML config file (default is config.toml)

Config

The tool uses a TOML config file. If you don't pass any --config argument it will look for a config.toml in the working directory.

Triggers

Triggers can be activated by a value either being above or below the given threshold. The default is above, but if you add trigger_when = "below" to the trigger configuration it will be triggered when the given value falls below what you specify.

Here's a sample trigger definition to put in a config.toml file:

[[triggers]]
type = "messages_ready"
threshold = 10000
queue = "sent_images"

This trigger will activate and send a message when a queue called sent_images goes above 10000 ready messages.

Available triggers

Here are the currently available triggers and their type field. If you put an invalid type for a trigger rmq_monitor won't start up and print out the error due to inability to parse the config.

  • Total number of consumers (type = "consumers_total") - How many consumers are currently consuming from the queue
  • Total memory (type = "memory_total") - Total memory used by the queue
  • Total number of messages (type = "messages_total") - The total number of messages currently on the queue
  • Number of ready messages (type = "messages_ready") - The number of messages available to consumers, ready to be delivered
  • Number of unacknowledged messages (type = "messages_unacknowledged") - The number of messages delivered to a consumer but not yet acked
  • Number of redelivered messages (type = "messages_redelivered") - The number of redelivered messages (due to being rejected)
  • Total rate of messages (type = "messages_total_rate") - The rate (per second) at which messages move in and out of the queue
  • Rate of ready messages (type = "messages_ready_rate") - The rate (per second) at which ready messages change
  • Rate of unacknowledged messages (type = "messages_unacknowledged_rate") - The rate (per second) at which unacknowledged messages change
  • Publishing rate (type = "messages_publish_rate") - The rate (per second) at which messages are published on the queue
  • Delivery rate (type = "messages_delivery_rate") - The rate (per second) at which messages are delivered by the queue
  • Redelivery rate (type = "messages_redeliver_rate") - The rate (per second) at which messages are redelivered to the queue (because of rejection)

Docker image

There's a minimal Docker image published on Docker hub. The size of the image is only 11Mb.

To use it you only need to mount a volume with your config file. The container will be looking for the config file in /config/config.toml so mount it there. Example:

docker run -it -v (pwd)/your_config.toml:/config/config.toml --rm zbrox/rmq_monitor:latest

or if you're running in kubernetes and it's easier to mount the whole folder:

docker run -it -v (pwd)/where_i_keep_configs:/config --rm zbrox/rmq_monitor:latest

Obviously in this case you have to name the config file in that folder also config.toml. Later I'll add a container variable to be able to change that name as well.
