Creating a RabbitMQ Broker

This topic describes how to install the RabbitMQ Broker onto your cluster.

Prerequisites

1. You have installed Knative Eventing.
2. You have installed CertManager v1.5.4 - easiest integration with RabbitMQ Messaging Topology Operator
3. You have installed RabbitMQ Messaging Topology Operator - our recommendation is latest release with CertManager
4. You have access to a working RabbitMQ instance. You can create a RabbitMQ instance by using the RabbitMQ Cluster Kubernetes Operator. For more information see the RabbitMQ website.

Install the RabbitMQ controller

1. Install the RabbitMQ controller by running the command:

   kubectl apply -f https://github.com/knative-extensions/eventing-rabbitmq/releases/download/knative-v1.19.6/rabbitmq-broker.yaml
   

2. Verify that rabbitmq-broker-controller and rabbitmq-broker-webhook are running:

   kubectl get deployments.apps -n knative-eventing
   

   Example output:

   NAME                           READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
   eventing-controller            1/1     1            1           10s
   eventing-webhook               1/1     1            1           9s
   rabbitmq-broker-controller     1/1     1            1           3s
   rabbitmq-broker-webhook        1/1     1            1           4s
