Configure Customerdata service as Queue Producer

This will explain how the Customerdata service can be configured to publish aggregate event messages to a queue. Please see Introduction to Aggregate events for more information.
Only RabbitMQ is supported as queue.

Spring profile configuration

To enable message publishing, add the profile 'entity-event-publisher-amqp' to CDS's bootstrap.yml in <Blueriq installation folder>\Services\blueriq-customerdata\conf. Create bootstrap.yml if it does not exist.

spring: 
  profiles: 
    active: entity-event-publisher-amqp

Event publisher configuration

To be able to publish event messages, the event channel needs to be configured in blueriq-customerdata-odata-service-v1-entity-event-publisher-amqp.yml. This file can be found at <Blueriq installation folder>\Services\blueriq-customerdata\conf.

# RabbitMQ configuration
spring:
  rabbitmq:
    host: localhost
    port: 5671
    virtualHost: /
    username: guest
    password: guest
    dynamic: false
    ssl:
      enabled: false

# Aggregate event channel configuration
blueriq:
  customerdata:
    aggregate-event:
      channel:
        amqp:
          exchangeName: CustomerDataService
 

Enable TLS connection

To enable a secure (TLS) AMQP connection to the queue, set the property "spring.rabbitmq.ssl.enabled" to "true".
The default for AQMP port with TLS on RabbitMQ is '5671', it needs to be explicitly enabled though, see https://www.rabbitmq.com/ssl.html for more information.
