Question

Is it possible to view RabbitMQ message contents directly from the command line?

sudo rabbitmqctl list_queues lists the queues.

Is there any comma

Answer 1

a bit late to this, but yes rabbitmq has a build in tracer that allows you to see the incomming messages in a log. When enabled, you can just tail -f /var/tmp/rabbitmq-tracing/.log (on mac) to watch the messages.
