pulse00/rabbitmq repository overview

⁠pulse00/rabbitmq

Base docker image to run a RabbitMQ server, based on tutum-docker-rabbitmq⁠

⁠Usage

Pull the image

docker pull pulse00/rabbitmq

⁠Running the RabbitMQ server

Run the following command to start rabbitmq:

docker run -d -p 5672:5672 -p 15672:15672 pulse00/rabbitmq

The first time that you run your container, a new random password will be set. To get the password, check the logs of the container by running:

docker logs <CONTAINER_ID>

You will see an output like the following:

========================================================================
You can now connect to this RabbitMQ server using, for example:

    rabbitmqadmin -u admin -p 5elsT6KtjrqV -H <host> -P <port> list vhosts

Please remember to change the above password as soon as possible!
========================================================================

In this case, 5elsT6KtjrqV is the password set. You can then connect to RabbitMQ:

rabbitmqadmin -u admin -p 5elsT6KtjrqV -P 15672 list vhosts

Done!

⁠Setting a specific password for the admin account

If you want to use a preset password instead of a randomly generated one, you can set the environment variable RABBITMQ_PASS to your specific password when running the container:

docker run -d -p 5672:5672 -p 15672:15672 -e RABBITMQ_PASS="mypass" pulse00/rabbitmq

You can now test your new admin password:

rabbitmqadmin -u admin -p mypass -P 15672 list vhosts
