NAME

Dancer::Plugin::Stomp - A Dancer plugin for messaging using STOMP based message queues.

VERSION

version 1.0300

SYNOPSIS

    use Dancer;
    use Dancer::Plugin::Stomp;

    post '/messages' => sub {
        stomp_send { destination => '/queue/foo', body => request->body };
    };

    dance;

DESCRIPTION

The goal of this module is to make it as easy as possible to interact with a STOMP message broker. STOMP stands for Simple (or Streaming) Text Orientated Messaging Protocol. It is a simple and standard protocol for messaging systems. See http://stomp.github.com for more details about the protocol.

KEYWORDS

stomp_send

    stomp_send \%data
    stomp_send name => \%data

This is a convenience function that handles connection details for you. It sends your message using the default configured client. If you have only one client configured, it is your default one. If you have multiple clients configured, the one named default will be used. Doing this

    stomp_send { destination => '/queue/foo', body => 'hello' };

is the same as:

    my $stomp = stomp();
    $stomp->connect(login => $login, passcode => $passcode);
    $stomp->send(destination => '/queue/foo', body => 'hello');
    $stomp->disconnect();

If you have multiple clients configured, you can distinguish between them by providing the name of the client as the first argument, followed by the data as the second argument:

    stomp_send foo => { destination => '/queue/foo', body => 'hello' };

stomp

    my $stomp = stomp
    my $stomp = stomp $name

This simply returns a Net::Stomp object. You are responsible for connecting and disconnecting. When no arguments are given, it returns a handle to the default configured client. You may provide a name if you have multiple clients configured.

CONFIGURATION

Configuration at a minimum requires a name and a host. The following example defines one client named default.

    plugins:
      Stomp:
        default:
          hostname: foo.com
          port: 61613

Multiple clients can also be configured:

    plugins:
      Stomp:
        default:
          hostname: foo.com
          port: 61613
        bar:
          hostname: bar.com
          port: 61613
          login: bob
          passcode: secret

Failover hosts are supported:

    plugins:
      Stomp:
        default:
          hosts:
            -
              hostname: foo.com
              port: 61613
            -
              hostname: bar.com
              port: 61613

The available configuration options for a client are:

hostname

This is the location of the STOMP server. It can be an ip address or a hostname. Either hostname or hosts is required.

hosts

This is to support failover hosts as documented in Net::Stomp. In Perl terms, it should be an arrayref of hashrefs, each of which contains at least a hostname and a port. Either hostname or hosts is required.

port
login
passcode
