Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
RabbitMQ Message Timestamp Plugin
This plugin fills the timestamp property and timestamp_in_ms header of a message as it enters
RabbitMQ with the current (server node) timestamp value.
Supported RabbitMQ Versions
This plugin targets RabbitMQ 3.6.0 and later versions.
Limitations
This plugin cannot be used together with rabbitmq-routing-node-stamp as they override the same extension point.
Installation
Binary builds of this plugin can be obtained from the Community Plugins page.
See Plugin Installation for details about how to install plugins that do not ship with RabbitMQ.
Building from Source
You can build and install it like any other plugin (see the plugin development guide).
Usage
Just enable the plugin with the following command:
rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_message_timestampThe plugin will then hook into the basic.publish process in order to
add the current timestamp as seen by the broker.
Limitations
The plugin hooks into the basic.publish path, so expect a small
throughput reduction when using this plugin, since it has to modify
every message that crosses RabbitMQ.
This plugin should not be enabled at the same time as any other
interceptors that hook into the basic.publish process, such as
the rabbitmq-routing-node-stamp plugin. Enabling more than one
interceptor that is registered to the basic.publish process will
cause all AMQP 0-9-1 connections to fail when creating a new channel.
If there's enough demand, we could add in the future a way for only time-stamping messages that crosses certain exchanges, say by applying policies.
