RabbitMQ

Original Git Instructions  here.

What Is RabbitMQ?
RabbitMQ is a free and open-source messaging and streaming broker that supports AMQP 1.0 and MQTT 5 protocols. It is commonly used for decoupling services, RPC, streaming, IoT applications, and more. It’s a mature and reliable tool, widely adopted due to its simplicity and extensive deployment options across cloud environments, on-premises, and local machines.

Installing RabbitMQ with Helm

Download the rabbitmq.values.yml attached to this article and place it in a recognizable folder. This file contains the configurations values. The file was already changed with the values recommended by Collab.
 Open a CommandLine or PowerShel in the folder that contains rabbitmq.values.yml.

Step 1: Create a Secret for RabbitMQ Credentials

To secure your RabbitMQ installation, create a Kubernetes secret with a strong password for the RabbitMQ account.

Replace !!!CREATEME!!! with the strong password and run the following commands:" 

kubectl create namespace rabbitmq 
kubectl -n rabbitmq create secret generic rabbitmq --from-literal=rabbitmq-password="!!!CREATEME!!!"

Step 2: Install RabbitMQ

Add the Bitnami Helm repository and install RabbitMQ with the following commands:

helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami 
helm repo update bitnami 
helm upgrade --install rabbitmq bitnami/rabbitmq -n rabbitmq --version 14.4.4 -f rabbitmq.values.yml

Step 3: Verify the Installation

Check if RabbitMQ is running by listing the pods in the rabbitmq namespace:

kubectl -n rabbitmq get pod

Expected output:

NAME         READY   STATUS    RESTARTS        AGE

rabbitmq-0   1/1     Running   0               5h43m

rabbitmq-1   1/1     Running   0               5h37m

rabbitmq-2   1/1     Running   0               5h34m
