Connectivity > Protocols > RSS and Atom
We have added support for the RESTful browsing of message queues in the activemq-web module. To try out this feature try the Web Samples.
Browsing of queues is implemented by a servlet, QueueBrowseServlet which allows queues to be browsed using pluggable views. The current views supported are
| View name | Description |
|---|---|
| simple | Renders a list of |
| xml | Uses XStream to render the entire messages as XML |
| rss | Uses Rome to render the messages as an RSS 0.9*, 1.0, 2.0 or Atom 0.3 feed. You can configure the type of feed using the feedType |
Any properties on the view objects can be configured via reflection using query parameters. e.g. you can specify these common properties
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| contentType | Override the MIME content type of the view |
| maxMessages | The maximum number of messages to render |
Examples
- http://localhost:8080/queueBrowse/FOO/BAR?view=xml will browse the queue as XML
- http://localhost:8080/queueBrowse/FOO/BAR?view=rss&feedType=rss_2.0 will browse the FOO.BAR queue using RSS 2.0
- http://localhost:8080/queueBrowse/FOO/BAR?view=rss&feedType=atom_0.3 will browse the FOO.BAR queue using Atom
