RabbitMQ Spring Boot application handle broker down

问题

I have a Spring Boot application configured to connect to a local RabbitMQ broker. I have also configured a FixedBackOff strategy in order to stop retrying connecting after 3 unsuccessful attempts.

EDIT 1: I have the following configuration for FixedBackOff as explained by @gary-russell in here:

@Bean(name = "rabbitListenerContainerFactory")
public SimpleRabbitListenerContainerFactory simpleRabbitListenerContainerFactory(
        SimpleRabbitListenerContainerFactoryConfigurer configurer,
        ConnectionFactory connectionFactory) {
    SimpleRabbitListenerContainerFactory factory = new SimpleRabbitListenerContainerFactory();
    configurer.configure(factory, connectionFactory);
    BackOff recoveryBackOff = new FixedBackOff(5000, 3);
    factory.setRecoveryBackOff(recoveryBackOff);
    return factory;
}

With this configuration, I keep getting a ConnectionException in the console:

Therefore the application does not go up and keeps on printing this exception. How can I start this application even when the broker is down?

回答1:

That SimpleRabbitListenerContainerFactoryConfigurer is not related to what you have in the logs.

The container is about @RabbitListener - even-driven consumers, but here you have a RabbitHealthIndicator which uses already a RabbitTemplate and it is a passive call, therefore no any retry is applied here. Well, you can configure some retry via spring.rabbitmq.template.retry configuration properties, but that won't help you to stay UP with that health indicator meanwhile you are really DOWN.
