EDX extension for AmqpNetLite

This is a small extension over AmqpNetLite for simplifying communication with an EDX-Toolbox. The most important features are:

1. Encapsulating AMQP Application Properties that regularly would be string-based
2. Unwrapping binary message content as a string when receiving messages

The solution also provides examples on how to connect with EDX, as well as sending and receiving messages.

Contents

There are multiple projects in this solution:

1. EdxLib, the library itself
2. EdxLibTests, unit tests for the library-functionality
3. SimpleSender, a basic console application for sending data through the outbox queue
4. SimpleReceiver, a basic console application for receiving data from the inbox queue
5. SimpleReplyReceiver, a basic console application for receiving status messages from the outbox reqply queue

Additionaly there is help on setting up a stub environment for local development/testing with RabbitMQ

The samples given on this site are very simple, for better guidance on building AMQP-based applications please refer to:

There are also more complex examples at the AmqpLiteNet home, including transaction handling as well as callback-based communication:
