Common functionality for the rabbitmq input/output RabbitMQ server address(es) host can either be a single host, or a list of hosts i.e. host ⇒ "localhost" or host ⇒ ["host01", "host02]

if multiple hosts are provided on the initial connection and any subsequent recovery attempts of the hosts is chosen at random and connected to. Note that only one host connection is active at a time.

The default codec for this plugin is JSON. You can override this to suit your particular needs however. Key to route to by default. Defaults tologstash

• Routing keys are ignored on fanout exchanges.

Add properties to be set per-message here, such ascontent_type,priority. Values can besprintf templates, whose value for each message will be populated from the event.

These configuration options are supported by all output plugins:

The codec used for output data. Output codecs are a convenient method for encoding your data before it leaves the output without needing a separate filter in your Logstash pipeline.

• Value type isboolean
• Default value istrue

Disable or enable metric logging for this specific plugin instance. By default we record all the metrics we can, but you can disable metrics collection for a specific plugin.

• Value type isstring
• There is no default value for this setting.

Add a uniqueID to the plugin configuration. If no ID is specified, Logstash will generate one. It is strongly recommended to set this ID in your configuration. This is particularly useful when you have two or more plugins of the same type. For example, if you have 2 rabbitmq outputs. Adding a named ID in this case will help in monitoring Logstash when using the monitoring APIs.

output {  rabbitmq {    id => "my_plugin_id"  }}
