AMQP Queue
Schema describing an AMQP 0-9-1 queue. Queues store messages and deliver them to consumers. They can be durable, exclusive, or auto-deleted, and support various arguments for controlling message TTL, length limits, and dead-lettering.
Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| name | string | The name of the queue. An empty string causes the broker to generate a unique name. |
| durable | boolean | If true, the queue survives broker restarts. |
| exclusive | boolean | If true, the queue is used by only one connection and will be deleted when that connection closes. |
| autoDelete | boolean | If true, the queue is automatically deleted when the last consumer unsubscribes. |
| arguments | object | Optional arguments for queue declaration providing extended configuration. |
