####Installation

Require this package in your composer.json and run composer update (IMPORTANT! DO NOT USE "dev-master"):

"vladimir-yuldashev/laravel-queue-rabbitmq": "5.1"

After composer update is finished you need to add ServiceProvider to your providers array in app.php:

VladimirYuldashev\LaravelQueueRabbitMQ\LaravelQueueRabbitMQServiceProvider::class,

Add these lines to your app/config/queue.php file to connections array:

'rabbitmq' => [
	'driver'          		=> 'rabbitmq',

	'host'            		=> env('RABBITMQ_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
	'port'            		=> env('RABBITMQ_PORT', 5672),

	'vhost'           		=> env('RABBITMQ_VHOST', '/'),
	'login'           		=> env('RABBITMQ_LOGIN', 'guest'),
	'password'        		=> env('RABBITMQ_PASSWORD', 'guest'),

	'queue'           		=> env('RABBITMQ_QUEUE'), // name of the default queue,
	
	'exchange_declare' 		=> env('RABBITMQ_EXCHANGE_DECLARE', true), // create the exchange if not exists
	'queue_declare_bind' 	=> env('RABBITMQ_QUEUE_DECLARE_BIND', true), // create the queue if not exists and bind to the exchange

	'queue_params'    		=> [
		'passive'     		=> env('RABBITMQ_QUEUE_PASSIVE', false),
		'durable'     		=> env('RABBITMQ_QUEUE_DURABLE', true),
		'exclusive'   		=> env('RABBITMQ_QUEUE_EXCLUSIVE', false),
		'auto_delete' 		=> env('RABBITMQ_QUEUE_AUTODELETE', false),
	],

	'exchange_params' => [
		'name'        => env('RABBITMQ_EXCHANGE_NAME', null),
		'type'        => env('RABBITMQ_EXCHANGE_TYPE', 'direct'), // more info at http://www.rabbitmq.com/tutorials/amqp-concepts.html
		'passive'     => env('RABBITMQ_EXCHANGE_PASSIVE', false),
		'durable'     => env('RABBITMQ_EXCHANGE_DURABLE', true), // the exchange will survive server restarts
		'auto_delete' => env('RABBITMQ_EXCHANGE_AUTODELETE', false),
	],

],

And add these properties to .env with proper values:

QUEUE_DRIVER=rabbitmq

RABBITMQ_HOST=127.0.0.1
RABBITMQ_PORT=5672
RABBITMQ_VHOST=/
RABBITMQ_LOGIN=guest
RABBITMQ_PASSWORD=guest
RABBITMQ_QUEUE=queue_name

You can also find full examples in src/examples folder.
